Football is the ultimate team sport and success is reached only when a team successfully bridges the challenge of ultimate dependency on each other. It is significant in every single unit and each must recognize that it must meet the challenge to operate at its maximum capacity for a team to reach its maximum potential. Each unit must be coached and taught to excel in all phases: Athletically, Academically, Socially and Spiritually.
Each Coach is responsible and accountable for the growth and development of his unit in all phases. The ultimate responsibility and measurement of all coaches is the performance of their groups. When each group is at its maximum potential then the team will have the confidence and trust to perform at a level of Competitive Excellence. At this level there is nothing left to chance.
Every Coach must be totally involved and immersed in the lives of all of their players at all times. There are no vacations from this responsibility whether players are on campus or at home. There must be honesty and trust in your relationship with your players, on and off the field. Your meeting room is your sanctuary and is open to honest and truthful conversation and instruction. Pay attention to details and the big picture will clear up.
The player and coach relationship is unique in college football and can be very rewarding if done correctly. Each coach is responsible to maximize each player’s potential: Athletically, including the Weight Room, Academically, Socially and Spiritually. Then the Power of the Unit is met and there is confidence and trust to perform at a level of Competitive Excellence.
