Move. Play. Have fun. Be a kid. Kids need to be kids. They don't need to be prepping for standardized tests or limited to "select/elite" sports teams. Listen to young kids run/chase. Kids find joy in moving. So simple. Yet, we have somehow made it complicated.

NCAA Basketball has 8 weeks of summer training, then 8-10 weeks of pre-season practice in preparation for their first game. Conversely, NCAA XC has ZERO summer training and only 16 days of practice prior to their 1st competition. How is this safe for XC student athletes?

Day by day. Couldn't have done it without the support of many, especially my wife. Our success has come from people believing in building something bigger than themselves. We have accomplished a lot but there is much more to achieve. #EyesUp #FutureIsBright #GoJays

Too often programming is over complicated &/or approached from the wrong direction. I used to be that guy. Programming isn't about writing workouts, it is about understanding & knowing what your athletes need.

Every coach, teacher, leader - regardless of sport, should listen to this, starting at about the 54 min mark. @jmarpdx & @stevemagness hit on the need for relationships, boredom, interactions and our role as coaches in that growth

Needs to be read. Needs to be talked about. MUST be changed. And not just at the school in the article but everywhere. We need open, truthful, people centered conversations. The lives of young women & men are too important to be a # Cura Personalis - care for the whole person

Creighton is special. I always refer to @Creighton as a "who" bc it's the people who make it so special. And people go from here, taking Creighton with them, making the world a little better. A glimpse into that, from a guy who hoops @TrickyTrey23
