In the end, it's about the teaching, and what I always loved about coaching was the practices. Not the games, not the tournaments, not the alumni stuff. But teaching the players during practice was what coaching was all about to me.

I learned a long time ago how to be coachable.

Coaching is the great passion of my life, and the job to me has always been an opportunity to work with our student athletes and help them discover what they want.

I'm sure that had I not been a coach, I would have been some form of a teacher.

I fell in love with coaching. I loved interacting with young people, having the opportunity to make a tremendous impression on them.

I think that teaching coaches are the norm now.

I learned a lot in the Minor Leagues, spending six years there. I honed my skills, as far as coaching goes. I was able to work with the players in a lot of facets of the game.

Coaches who have been players in the league, they get so attuned to playing how they were successful and who their coaches were.

I was a pretty good coach and working with marketing was like coaching.

My first career was as a coach and a teacher.
