Being able to Coach Fundamentals is the difference between a very good Coach and a average Coach. Fundamentals coaching is the reason I’ve Coach two All Americans the past two years.

Nick Sirianni is very appreciative of Saquon Barkley’s comments about Nick that no one has done it better than him. Saquon said that he couldn’t stand Nick when Saquon was with the Giants!
“I feel the same way about him. Yeah, no, I get it. If I think back on my past, any teams that are rivals usually, I don't know – for whatever reason, they don't usually like me 😂 That's when I was in high school, that's college, whatever. I'm glad he's on our team and I'm glad we have the relationship that we do though.
You're in this profession to help people accomplish their goals when you can't play football anymore. I wish my career would've went further. I love playing football, but then you get into it to help other people be the best version of themselves that they can be. And attention to detail is just something – I could think back to [Mount Union head] coach [Larry] Kehres telling me when I was coaching camps when I was still playing there, ‘Hey, [always] have a coaching point. There's either something they did good or something they did bad’ after every time and how important fundamentals were. My dad, I think back to track. I was able to compete in the triple jump, not because I was bigger and stronger and faster than everyone, but because I had good fundamentals that he was able to teach me.
Fundamentals, detail of situations, and detail help you go to another level and that's what we focus on. It gets you to another level of your talent so your talent can shine. So that's something that we constantly focus on. It's good to hear that because that’s what our constant focus is. It always comes down to your players and the talent of your players and that players play with high attention to detail together with relentless effort, which are all things that are part of our core values and we try to live our core values, not just have them be writings on the wall.”
