W-I-N

Hopefully everyone had a good spring break. Coaches were able to attend a football clinic with great speakers from Southern Illinios University, Brainerd along with many other great high school programs. The message sent by these schools was very similar - it takes commited, hard working young men to have a successful program. It was interesting to listen to the SIU coaches talk about character education & team building. The break also allowed me to catch up on some reading. Once again Lou Holtz is a source of inspiration and good coaching advice.

Coach Holtz has a What's Important Now (W-I-N) philosophy. The philosphy is to consider your goals and ask your self What's Important Now for me to achieve that goal. Ask yourself 25 times a day What's Important Now? As we move through the spring consider your goals for life and the football season and remember to ask yourself What's Important Now.
