Mike Tomlin had an all-time quote when describing the Giants' improvement in their run game this week. 🤣

Nick Saban GOLD 🥇
“Negative experiences without teaching kill morale.”
This is such an important coaching lesson.
Players are going to fail. They are going to make mistakes.
The question: What do we do with it?

This is such a better example of “welcome to the NBA” from Joakim Noah than a superstar dunking on him. I wanna hear about how Chris Kaman busted his ass so much more.

Every day, a little bit of what we all love about the game erodes away. The powers in charge take a tiny bit more but soon there won’t be anything left to take.

"There's a sick part of me that is kinda happy we got out butts kicked...so now the film will do the talking not the coach. Well, the coach is gonna do some talking tomorrow too."
Here's how Tom Izzo ended his press conference following MSU's 78-70 loss to UConn in an exhibition game:

The first guy to storm the field after the final play was none other than Steve Young. #BYUvsNotreDame

Cool managing. Pat Murphy has players clock in to remind them of work ethic and the "privilege of playing baseball."

This quote seems to be melting the internet so I think the key is talking through what this actually means.
When constructing an offense as a coach, you should not be trying to CREATE midrange shots. Obviously though, sometimes the defense wins. And the best bailout can oftentimes be a midrange jumper. So if you’re a player (particularly shot creators who spend a lot of time on the ball), yes it’s valuable to have a midrange jumper. And yes, if you’re training players who are on-ball players, you should be helping them with that shot. It IS really important for those moments where offenses need bailed out. But midrange jumpers shouldn’t be the goal of what a coach is trying to create offensively.

Steve Pikiell wants to use his cancer diagnosis to help others — and is putting $250,000 of his own money toward the cause. Is there anything more Pikiellesque than that? Column:
