EVERY coach in EVERY college sport should listen to this approach. It’s not an accident Coach Hurley has created a consistent winning culture!
“We spend a lot of time focusing on the parents. Are they going to be fans of their son or parents? Are they going to hold them accountable? Have an expectation that when something goes wrong, that it’s not the coach’s fault. Their son has to work harder, do more, earn his role,” Dan Hurley
The role of a parent makes a difference in building a TEAM culture.

It’s gets people about 40% towards an actual better life, but is ultimately unfulfilling, because we can’t be the source of fulfillment for ourselves. We aren’t big enough, or perfect enough.

Each second, 1.5 million tons of solar material, traveling at 100 miles per second, shoot off the sun. Earth's magnetic field deflects most of it, but not all. The solar wind, a stream of charged particles, flows at 447 km/s (1 million mph), and while the magnetic field protects us, some particles still cause auroras and geomagnetic storms.
Makes sense because 100 miles isn’t THAT close.
Columbia is a city, with city amenities, and city living, and city issues. It’s a city.

Raise brave kids. Culture runs on fear right now, for votes, for clicks, for sales, for headlines, for compliance, but it doesn't mean your family has to. If you want a brave 16-year-old, teach a 6-year-old bravery and then give them ten years to practice.
“I’ll see your state reps, and raise you one Fed rep.” The WORST writer in Hollywood could script this.
This drama desperately needs a plot twist—fast.

Is it too late for me to introduce a car wash with drive thru coffee? What about an oil change/mattress store combo?
There’s a few items I don’t agree with Rep. Bauer on, however, this is local representation at it’s finest. She sees the problems for what they are, leadership failures that begin at the top, and are abetted by the Richland 1 school board.
