Agree 100% on this.
Dan Campbell said, "The most important thing that a head coach does is hire his staff." "Without your staff, you are nothing." No one wins alone. Leadership isn’t about doing it all - it’s about empowering others. The right people = the right culture.

Are you even a football coach if you don’t have every practice script from the season stashed somewhere?

Scheming is overrated Reps are underrated Most of the time in big moments of big games your best chance for success will come down to executing your base offense. This is sometimes hard for coaches bc they get bored or they want to look smart with a new play. I’ve been there.

Teaching and coaching are the same thing. Good coaches are good teachers. Good coaching is good teaching. If you want to get better at one, study the other.

Spent the last two days at the Weber State Wild 7s tournament and BYU's Royal Clash: 7 on 7 tournament. It was fun to spend two whole days with this crew. While we did not go as far as we would have liked in both tournaments, the boys did well and I am proud of their growth.
