College coaching is tough! The intensity bears down on you - there is no punching the clock - and the expectations you place on yourself far exceed those of others.
But in the end, I always arrive at the same conclusion;
It is an INCREDIBLE & awesome privilege to be a coach!
This award is a reflection of @BaileyThomas24 incredible physical and mental toughness, and the fact that she is;
👉A WORKHORSE OF THE PUREST BREED!
Joins @____BrookeLynn as the second Lady Reb in past 3 seasons to earn @MountainWest Defensive Player of The Year!
CONGRATS! 🔴
College coaching is not for the meek or faint hearted.
It’s not a deal where you “try it out” for a while / see if you like it.
It is an all or nothing commitment!
Gotta be born for it, love being “in the battle” with your players, &;
👉EMBRACE THE DOG EAT DOG MINDSET NEEDED!
It has been a privilege to coach our seniors — and witness their incredible transformation as basketball players and people.
Their contributions to our program are —- UNQUANTIFIABLE!
WE LOVE EACH OF YOU! ❤️🔴
Congrats to our 2020 recruiting class - Jaz, Jade, Desi - all on the brink of leading their high school teams to state titles.
WOW! LET’S GO! 🔴🔴🔴🏀🏀🏀

The highs and lows of coaching are undeniable ⬆️⬇️.
Even so, you can’t be a “fair weather coach.”
Can’t love your job when you win the title🏆. And loath it when you lose a few.
Regardless of the circumstance,
GOTTA BRING THE SAME PASSION, ENERGY AND COMMITMENT —— ALWAYS!
Incredible win @TheRunninRebels! WOW!
An historic program making noise on the national scene - again!
My dad and I watched the 1990 Runnin’ Rebels defeat LMU in the NCAA West Regionals. We were enamored. They represented PASSION, GUTS, GLORY.
STILL DO AND ALWAYS WILL!🔴🙌
Love this quote;
“Be the change you wish to see in the world.” -Gandhi
Reminds me that one person (OR AN ENTIRE TEAM) can impact an outcome through sheer will, force, desire, determination, decision making, toughness and grit!
GREAT TEAM WIN!
🔴🔴🔴🏀🏀🏀
TAKING A CHARGE is a gutsy move and a momentum differentiator!
It is the ultimate display of selflessness and toughness!
When players sacrifice their body for the good of the team, they are also sending a huge message to the opponent;
👉THERE ARE NO FREE LAY UPS IN BASKETBALL!

The month of February is THE TRUE TEST for everyone in the game of basketball!
You are either;
🏀 dragging your feet, getting distracted, losing your zest,
OR...
🏀 bringing the same passion, energy and commitment as you did in October!
👉 GOTTA FIND MORE GAS IN YOUR TANK!
At a certain point in sports (and life) you will figure out what you’re made of, DEEP DOWN INSIDE.
Others will too.
If you fit THE PROFILE - you’ll be in good shape.
✔️tough
✔️never quits
✔️battles fatigue
✔️able to withstand suffering
✔️PUSHES TO THE BREAKING POINT!
We are looking forward to wearing pink 💕 tomorrow in our #Play4Kay game.
THIS GAME GIVES US A CHANCE TO THINK DEEPLY ABOUT OTHERS.
With this in mind, we will play hard for;
▪️those fighting cancer
▪️the survivors, and;
▪️the ones who lost the fight🙏
Basketball is the game we love to play,
There will be ups and downs, but come what may,
“Never give up,” we will always say,
Wishing you A HAPPY VALENTINE’S DAY!
🌹❤️💕🔴🏀

The highs & lows of a sports season truly mirrors LIFE!
What an incredible training ground!
Teaches us to;
🔸return stronger after failure
🔸run through the obstacle
🔸embrace the difficult route,
&;
🔸not obsess about outcomes, but CONTROL THE PASSION ❤️ WITH WHICH WE LIVE!
Thinking about the exceptional coaches (every sport) who have 30yrs invested. And it strikes me;
“Being a success” in coaching isn’t defined by a meteoric ☄️rise, but a gradual CLIMB.
THE SHOOTING STAR is bright but fizzles.
THE FIXTURE IN THE SKY is brilliant & everlasting!
This time of the year always reminds me why I love recruiting and going to HS games.
I get to see talented ballers — YES!
But more so, I am overwhelmed by the passion, commitment & enthusiasm of high school coaches.👏
BEING A HIGH SCHOOL BASKETBALL COACH IS AN HONORABLE THING!
The month of February is THE TRUE TEST for everyone in the game of basketball!
You are either;
🏀 dragging your feet, getting distracted, losing your zest,
OR...
🏀 bringing the same passion, energy and commitment as you did in October!

If your teammates are for you, who could possibly be against you!
