Its This Simple

(1) "The strength of the wolf is the pack and the strength of the pack is the wolf"
- give to the group and trust that it will come back to you
(2) Defensive Accountability 
- you have to defend to get onto the floor 
(3) Offensive Unselfishness 
- the open man gets the shot 
(4) Trust the Process
- just do what you are supposed to do, when its time to do it
- be present 
(5) Build a Ventilation System
- everyone in the program will need to vent. it is human. 
- funneling this human fact in a positive direction is the key. 
(5) Recruit Length
- find the longest wingspans with the most defensive ability and potential to develop skill possible

Recruiting

Search "rebounding" and than work backwards. 

Search "ast/to" and than work backwards.

Its this simple

(1) Must Have an Identity
  • Ours is... 
  • Competitive & connected enjoyment with a focus on the process and a will to win (w.i.n) 
  • Pace and space
  • We handle adversity by accepting it is a challenge to overcome (its not the setback, its the comeback, e + r = O. ) our O is to stay In the moment 

(2) Incentives need to be aligned

  • you have to be about the team to be on the team; work hard, attitude, leadership, the team
  • You have to play defense to get on the floor
(3) Must play as a team
  • First, is the social contract.... 
  • that everything you give, you will get back 
  • That when you give to the pack, the pack also gives to you
  • Second, is buying into your role... 
  • each member needs a role that is valued by the team and is also actively validated
  • Everyone is a star within their role
  • Third, is the teams “vent”ilator...
  • Everyone is going to vent. We need to make sure the right people are getting vented to
  • Create the time for players to vent. Control this narrative.
  • Players in fight or flight play worse. They must feel protected

(4) Must recruit OUR guys

  • guys with length, who can defend and can see the floor
  • Everything else can be developed 


(5) Must have a goal

  • is to win the championship
  • And graduate
  • *** the staff must manage grades
