Texas High School Coach, blessed with the best job in the world!
Longview, TX
Joined July 2018
Lifting heavy weights MIGHT make you slow if you ONLY lift heavy weight for years on end. But that’s not what we do. We lift heavy. We lift fast. We jump. We bound. We skip. We sprint. We do it all. These are two of New York State fastest high school athletes, NOT being slow

University of Houston coach Kelvin Sampson with an in-season worthy smackdown of the trend of individual workout coaches that so many players rely on these days. "If you're playing in a one on zero tournament, I think you'd be pretty good. The problem is we play five on five."

Say it again for the people in the back 👏🏽
If your child struggles to do 10 push ups and can’t do a good bodyweight squat, that extra sports camp/skills session should take a back seat for now. Build a better motor and get more out of your youth athlete.

Because there are leaders and there are administrators. Being a leader is hard…..so many choose to be administrators
Every HC will tell you the key to a good job is supportive Admin. So why would an Admin team choose to not support the coaches that they hired? Outside of losing, not being a good coach/person, one of the highest factors for coaches to be fired/resign is “Admin wasn’t supportive”

"I think you have a greater chance to lose your team when you're transactional as a leader. Which is the way I was until 1998. In other words, everything was about winning or losing... Negative experiences without teaching kills morale..." - Nick Saban

The locker room lawyers (players) and grand stand lawyers (parents) are overflowing on losing teams. They destroy culture and are despised by winners. Underachieving players and their parents are usually the captains of lawyer teams.

Some look for excuses to not lift others do what is necessary to be successful
Hey athletes… I promise you can lift even if you: “Have a game tomorrow.” “Have a big tournament coming up.” “Just played today.” “Just played yesterday.” “Just had practice.” Stop thinking strength training is automatically some taboo “make you sore,” event

Amen
Felt the Good Lord remind me- show up for the kids who love you, the coaches who buy in and believe in you and because he’s placed you where you are. All the rest is the enemy trying to distract you from your purpose. Go be great today! We’re all in the fight, He’s got us!
