My lovely wife, who is 5 ft tall, forgot we had a crockpot on top of the fridge and bought another one. Marriage is fun.

I played four sports at a small high school and one sport in college. My grandpa is currently telling his friends I played five sports in college. I’m slowly becoming a legend.

A parent of one of our players said to me this morning, “If you look at him in 8th grade compared to now, he’s a completely different kid. He’s happier, more disciplined, and confident.” . That’s what sports does and that’s why I wanted to coach.

I’ve been thinking about if/what to post the last week. I’ve realized if a social media post isn’t worded perfectly it can easily be manipulated to mean something else. So, let me speak plainly. I’m with my friends, I’m with our kids, and I’m with all who are hurting.

I absolutely hate asking for money. But my wife and I are raising support to go on a missions trip to Central America in March. If you feel led, we really appreciate the support and the prayers!

Remember in high school when you saw a teacher in public and it was really awkward? Turns out it’s just as awkward being a teacher and seeing your students.

They say that Minnesota is the top hat of America, so that makes Iowa the face of America, which explains why Iowans are all so attractive.

One of my biggest takeaways from The Last Dance is Dean Smith telling Michael to go pro when he was leaning towards coming back to school. Seeing a coach choose what’s best for the player over their program is amazing to see.
