A lot of coaches talk about players being able to "be comfortable being uncomfortable." The #1 way we have challenged our guys to do this is to: Get past SCARED. Get past INSECURE. Get past FRUSTRATION. And get past FATIGUE!

First week of college basketball, and I think about the words of Rick Majerus: “Bad shots will beat you faster than anything else.” Your shot selection determines your defensive transition. If it is poor, you don’t get a chance to set your defense and play defense.

Immediately take out players that are slacking off during a game. Great coaches don't accept players not giving effort.

"No one is bigger than the team. You're going to be on time, you're going play hard, you're going to know your job, and you're going to know when to pass and shoot. If you can't do those four things you're not getting time here and we don't care who you are." - Hubie Brown

There is really something to be said about players who embrace the opportunity to prove people wrong. The UNRANKED, UNHERALDED, UNDERDOGS always make a name for themselves when they REFUSE TO ACCEPT the opinions and limiting beliefs of others!!!

Interest gets you in the gym, but it's commitment that makes you the last one to leave. That's how champions are built.
