I have 2️⃣ units (family + team) that live in a world of sacrifice with the understanding that success is not promised. We do it because we love the mission and each other.
I am a husband 1A
I am a father 1B
I am a coach 1C
Doing all this knowing that #Iamsecond✞
We had some help breaking the news to coach 💚

Dear Coach Meyer✊🏻,
We all miss you in our own ways...what I miss most is you telling me to pick up a 🖊 and saying...Sunny...write this down 📓Thanks for being tough on me Coach🙏🏻
“Do the next right thing right and you will be as close to perfect as a human being can be.”

Coaches have been asking for our Cowboy Culture Alphabet…Steal whatever you would like…MAKE IT YOURS 🫡✊🏼
These serve as good guardrails for helping your program continue to make CULTURALLY DICTATED DECISIONS 🤠

Im tired of announcers saying duke is under-manned ... they are supposed to have 2 other top 10 draft picks ... they chose the 1️⃣ and done path ... UNC has grizzled vets like Luke Maye...and I respect ✊🏻 that path ✔️

Here's Tom Izzo's full explanation about Aaron Henry, why he went after him, and his evaluation of the results.

🗣 If you aren’t willing to correct a player because you are afraid it will hurt their feelings in the short term...
Then you must also accept that you are willing to let them have long term failures 📉...

TILL I COLLAPSE…
If you know @CoachSundance - the energy he brings on the court and to everyone around him is infectious. When @GBPhoenixmbb had their worst season - he ran straight into the fire & turned the program around.
Sunny was pretty candid about what keeps him going through the season:

🗣📉Losing locker-room mentality:
1️⃣ Whining
2️⃣ Complaining
3️⃣ Making Excuses
“Everything is too tough for someone with built in excuses.”
🗣📈Winning ways require:
1️⃣ Relentless Energy
2️⃣ Maximum Effort
3️⃣ Team Attitude

As a 1st year head coach...I can honestly tell you that if there is ☝🏻 thing I have learned...
It’s that those players in your locker-room who have a clear 🧠...a massive ❤️...🚫 EGO...and 🙏🏻sacrifice everything for the welfare of the team...will bring you to tears.
-Thanks Woj
I'm not crying, you're crying.
No wait, I'm crying too. #mubb

This man...Paul Sather...one of the best men I have ever been around...has taken so many chances on me...as a 17 year old scrawny Wyoming Boy with sweet hair...to a 36 year old bald assistant coach with juice...both times we combined to win...for #theDEEN
🏆🏆🏆💍💍💍🐺🐾🤘🏻
2 years ago we brought Sunny “home” to be a part of Northern Basketball...it’s been a blur since, but we had a blast together! I’ve known him since he was 17, love him like a brother, and couldn’t be more excited about this new opportunity for him! Mo.Western got the right guy!

🗣There has to be some level of:
I WANNA BE THERE
I WANNA PRACTICE HARD
I WANNA WAKE UP EARLY
I WANNA TRY AGAIN
I WANT TO!!!
Coach Meyer always said:
“if you have to beg them to play you will have to beg them to stay.”
WANT TO vs. HAVE TO

🚨 TRIGGER WARNING ⚠️
In this profession there is REAL LOVE and there is REAL HATE-it’s reality and I accept that.
𝐇𝐎𝐖𝐄𝐕𝐄𝐑, when that HATE becomes a federal offense by putting mail in my family’s mailbox & harassing my wife & kids = we got a problem #signyournamecoward

🗣Players play...tough players win...the world isn’t concerned about how hard it is for you...most people are going through a lot tougher stuff than us playing and coaching basketball✔️
🔸Be an everyday energetic and accountable human being🔸
Frank Martin calls it like he sees it 💯
“You’re going to have the sniffles when you go through life. Better get out of bed and go to work. If not, you’re going to end up on the unemployment line.”

SENIOR SEASON MINDSET:
“When you concentrate more on the team than yourself, everything falls into place. When you think that it’s YOUR time, you NEVER win. If it’s good for the WE than it’s good for me...if it’s good for ME than you have lost sight of the WE! #teamattitude🦅🦁
