Augie Garrido on toughness:
Nebraska High School Playoffs from 30 years ago. #nebpreps
“Winning isn’t the point. Wanting to win is the point. Not giving up is the point. Never letting up is the point. Never being satisfied with what you’ve done is the point. The game is never over. The secret of the game is in doing your best. To persist & endure.”-Pat Summitt
PARENTS: When you blame other things (officials, coaches, conditions, circumstances, teammates) for the situation your son or daughter is in, then you're essentially teaching your child how to be an excuse maker. Set the standard. Be the standard.
“These 3 rules have never let me down: 1. Do what is right 2. Do everything to the best of your ability. 3. Show people you care.” – Lou Holtz amzn.to/3fx3d6W
The weight room does a lot more than just build your body. It builds strong character & mental toughness. It strengthens weaknesses & reveals assertiveness. It shows who has drive & who fakes it. Through grit, it reveals who’ll quit & who won’t. Ultimately, it creates leaders!
“Talent is important. But the single most important ingredient after you get the talent is internal #LEADERSHIP. It’s not the coaches as much as one single person or people on the team who set higher standards than the team would normally set for itself.” -Mike Krzyzewski
Weight room myths: Messes up your shot Makes you big/bulky Makes you slow Makes you less flexible Weight room truths: Makes you stronger Decreases chance for injuries Increases stamina Makes you more confident/mentally tough No more excuses! Get in the weight room & get better!
Dear Players, Every time you skip a workout. Every time you take a shortcut. Every time you make an excuse. Every time you blame a teammate. Every time you bring a bad attitude. Every time you waste an opportunity. You make it easier to beat you. Sincerely, Your Competition

High school freshman and sophs . Playing JV to get maximum reps is not punishment or disrespectful . You are the future of the program and you need to develop!!!
He's the best in the state! Congratulations to our sports director, Doug Duda, on being chosen as the Nebraska Sportscaster of the Year! There is nobody more deserving than him. central.newschannelnebraska.com/story/48114179…
My motivational tip of the day! ( pre taped) If you have a designated time to meet someone be PUNCTUAL! Punctuality is an important trait to have
Are you recruitable? Do you… Have great body language Interact well with coaches Approach practice & individual workouts well Have mental toughness Practice outside of practice Care about academics Ask questions & communicate Behave like a great teammate Always compete to win
"We want guys that drink out of the water hose, not guys whose mommy's bringing them a Powerade. If you can get your culture tough -your kids tough, you have an advantage today.” It takes more than muscle, practice, and talent. At some point, it requires toughness and grit.
“I had fun knocking the 💩 out of people.” - Dick Butkus #DaBears
Things I guarantee to be true about a majority of the teams we see the next 4 days at PBA and Devaney… 1. The players love to WORK in the weight room! Not just be present but get after it! 2. The majority of players are multi-sport athletes! Compete using every muscle group.
Coaches: What you see in games is the result of what you’ve taught or allowed in practice. Players can’t be faulted if you don’t teach them what they need to know or allow things that shouldn’t be happening. Give them what they need each & every day & hold them all accountable.

We need less youth coaches running plays and more youth coaches teaching fundamental skills and proper spacing.

Remember when @DesmondHoward wanted Nebraska kicked out of the B1G10 because they wanted to play football. Is he still around?

Nick Saban on developing mental toughness: "You gotta embrace HARD. HARD times make TOUGH people. Easy times make soft people."
Can you imagine a HS teacher posting this negative message to their students? Sums up the depressing state of way too many HS classrooms. Athletic teams too.
Practice complaining and you’ll be good at complaining. Practice being negative and you’ll be good at being negative. Practice gratitude and you’ll be good at being grateful. Practice being positive and you’ll be good at being positive. Practice what makes you better.
PLAYERS: "You don't ever judge how you play by how you shoot the ball or how many points you score. You always judge how good you play by how your effort and whether you play to the best of your ability and you executed.” ~ Geno Auriemma video from @Jammer2233
On this 4th of July I'm proud to say that I'm an American. That's why I'm posting this video of Pat Tillman, a true American hero!

you are the best thing that’s ever been mine 💕 • Last night my best friend asked me to marry him! Judson, I am forever thankful you came into my life and can’t wait to spend forever with you🫶🏻

7 WAYS ATHLETES CAN SHOW THAT THEY ARE COACHABLE ... 1️⃣ Attitude of gratitude 2️⃣ Good body language 3️⃣ Respectful eye contact 4️⃣ Do things without being asked 5️⃣ Do what you're supposed to do 6️⃣ Listen when someone is speaking 7️⃣ Ask questions that benefit the team
