โTo look in the mirror and see yourself. Challenge yourself to be the very best and to always do the right thing. Never compromise your principles, never lower your standards. Whatever you do in life, have the courage and commitment to do it to your absolute best,โ Pat Summitt

Players:
If your coach tells you to ONLY play the sport they're coaching, they don't care about your future.

This transfer stuff in high school has to stop. Here is a novel idea, grow and develop where your feet are. Learn work ethic, accountability, and leadership skills instead of running away when you don't get your way. This also goes for parents. The grass isn't always greener

Parents get mad at school coaches when their kids donโt play as much as they think they should. They feel theyโve invested so much time & money that their kid should be playing more when reality is theyโve thrown money away for the last decade on pointless training & AAU teams.๐คท๐ปโโ๏ธ

โEvery possession matters. Take pride in every possession. Itโs a game of possessions. Itโs also a game of will.โ โ Pat Summitt

Maybe due to my years of being a traditionalist I have a problem with situations where a player in college is at a new school every year - 4 years 4 different schools - how in the world is that what college should be about ? Bluntly it is ABSURD!

Enjoy your high school athletic career as much as you can. Cherish each moment, because it goes by fast and youโll miss it when itโs done.

Pat Summitt said, "You should never have a bad night on defense and rebounding. You should never have an off-night on lack of communication. We have to be in this together...It's not about the individual, we are winning for our team."
Great teams have greater commitment.
โข They trust.
โข They serve.
โข They communicate.

The Biden Admin has just officially abolished Title IX as we knew it. Now, sex = gender identity.
In a nutshell, the new rewrite means:
- men can take academic AND athletic scholarships from women
- men will have FULL access to bathrooms, locker rooms, etc
- men could be housed in dorm rooms with women
- students and faculty MUST compel their speech by requiring the use of preferred pronouns
If the guidelines above are ignored or even questioned, then YOU can be charged with harassment.

Itโs very simpleโฆ only WOMEN should play womenโs sports.
Iโm sure Dawn Staley would change her mind the minute men start playing against her women's basketball team.
She would see opportunities, scholarships, and fairness gone for young women.

The weight room does more than just build your body. It builds character & mental toughness. It strengthens weaknesses & reveals assertiveness. It shows who has drive & who fakes it. Through grit, it reveals whoโll quit & who wonโt. Ultimately, doing hard things create leaders!
