There are high school coaches that are more knowledgeable and develop better than college coaches.
Some of those coaches are only in those positions because of who they know.

Next school year, I challenge ALL coaches to go to sporting events outside of your season that your athletes participate in.
1) it means a lot to the athletes to see you take interest in them outside the sport you coach
2) it builds school culture

A lot of coaches preach this “We is greater than me” but don’t apply that mindset when if comes to the athletic dept.
If you keep athletes from doing other sports because you only care about your sport, you aren’t modeling the same behavior you expect from your athletes.

When I came to my first collegiate track practice with my state champion shirt on an upperclassman told me “We don’t care about your HS accomplishments. Everyone here was a state champion”. Humbled lol
Recruiting 101: If you think the amount of attention you receive dwindles when you commit, wait until you actually sign. If you want attention as a college player, you must earn it. Your offers, ranking, stars, final 3 or 4 will be irrelevant to everyone in the locker room.

reminds me that some athletes look at sports as being their only way out because some where along the way, an adult led them to believe that was their only option. Kids have to know they are more than just an athlete.

As an AD, I attended at least one event of each sport at the school I served.
As a coach, I’m going to continue that tradition at SHS because I saw that it matters to kids when you are supporting ALL athletics and not just the sport you coach.

Some programs don’t have a quality football coach… 🫠
The whole “football players should run track” argument is only valid if the school has a quality track coach and that’s a hill I will die on.

I respect football, basketball, volleyball, cheerleading, wrestling, tennis, golf and every other sport that takes place outside of track.
I actually WANT my athletes to be multisport athletes.
The problem is… I expect the same in return.

When I was an athletic administrator, I always kept some polos and school merch on hand so when I hired new coaches, they would have something right away.
It showed them I cared and I was ready for them to be part of our family.

🎯 Some coaches don’t want to be bothered with the “developmental” kids.
That’s a 🚩🚩 If you can’t coach, just say that
Many coaches wants to JUST coach talented kids. I love ALL the kids, from the most talented to the least. All I ask from the athlete is to give me their best.

My dad is a 🐐
Since 2011 when I became a mom, my parents have supported my coaching career. Track meets are long!!! And they never hesitated to step in. My mom passed in 2015, and my dad hasn’t missed a beat in his grandpa duties.
He is the reason I am a coach.

I felt like this last week. It’s not blatant disrespect but…. I just think that if I took the time to make this engaging lesson and I’m actually SPEAKING, that they should pay attention. It’s almost like I don’t exist to some of them so I end up teaching to the ones that do… 😕

T&F is the only spring sport where coaches are expected to adjust to club sports. Now that 7on7 is in the mix…well it’s tough.
I have made it work in the past with ACTIVE communication, but at the end of the day, if you aren’t here for the training… how can you be successful?

Respect the small, underfunded schools that are killing in athletics and academics. They get it out the mud, for real.
- limited facilities
- lack of parental presence
- poor or out-of-date equipment
- little technology
All that and more... still producing champions

It is saddening that other HBCUs can’t just be happy for us.
If we ain’t in it, best believe I’m pulling for the HBCU that has a shot.
I loved seeing NC A&T perform at NCAA outdoor… even then being our rival. Some things are bigger than that…especially when it comes to HBCUs
