I’m a firm believer that “Rules” are for bad teams Instead my teams have had ‘Standards, Values & Expectations’ (SVEs) in alignment with our team ‘Vision & Mission’ And individual/team ‘Accountability’ from coaching staff to upholding these SVEs to reach our team’s ‘Goals’

Listened to @dantudor podcast with @vinmccaffrey this early morning on way into morning training with LTU. Some great insight into AI and its increasing impact on college coaching👏🏻 Give it a listen 🎧
Will you become some kind of AI coaching robot with all the new technology flooding your life as a college coach and recruiter? We talked to AI expert and tech entrepreneur @vinmccaffrey about the future of #AI in college coaching...and how the future is already here. Fascinating discussion!

That’s great stuff! Still to this day I call my HS coach, my college coaches, my PDL summer coaches, my pro coaches, my GK coaches all “Coach”…always will Think it’s a huge sign of respect to those that played such important roles in shaping me on and off the field🙏
I had a young man come up to me last week and say … “Hey Coach Boyle.” It was a player I coached in 1998! Wow! 🤩 And to still be called Coach Boyle after all these years!🙏🏻 Let’s go!✌️

Wow, this was so powerful, brought tears to my eyes🥹 The young man in blue was brought up the right way by his parents, family, teachers, coaches, & mentors❤️ There were no losers on that mat🙏

@KevinBeers3 is one of the most genuine, authentic, & positive people you’ll ever want to meet I was lucky enough to get to know Kevin closely over my years at Oakland and KB bleeds Black & Gold Oakland is extremely lucky to have him as an adopted son and ambassador
The "voice of OU" Kevin Beers uses his life experiences to inspire first-generation students. #BeGolden
