Soft people will always let you down. It’s always someone else’s fault, there is always an excuse, and they can’t take responsibility. If there’s one thing 19 years of college coaching has taught me... you need talent but you need toughness more. Everyone is replaceable.

Funny how division I schools are telling guys that we are both recruiting “Why would want to go to an NAIA, you are too good to go there.” To those schools… Since we are just an NAIA put us on your schedule. We will come play for no money.

I worked my first three years in college basketball for a whopping $0. I took an assistant job making less than 20k after being a successful head coach… and it took me 17 years in college basketball to earn what I would consider a “good living.”

I love it when we are recruiting a guy and another school tells the recruit that he shouldn’t play for me because I’m hard to play for. I absolutely am, I don’t hide that one bit. I think most parents are “hard” on their kids because they love them and want the best for them.

As a coach you know your team, I have been warning our guys about this for a couple of weeks. Too many guys in their feelings and too many opinions. The answer is simple.... just play better. That typically solves most problems. Adversity is here, excited to see how we respond.

Of course you need really good players to be successful, but just as importantly we really want guys that have gotten over themselves. This was the difference in us and a lot of teams this past season. I don’t think you can ever maximize talent unless that talent is unselfish.

Young coaches that think they are owed something or entitled to a particular job or position never cease to amaze me. College coaching is a very due paying profession and somehow a lot of guys don’t get that. There is nothing given, guaranteed, or easy in this profession.

Every coach in the country is excited about their team at this time of the year. If they aren’t then something is definitely wrong. With that being said , I absolutely love our talent level! How tough, unselfish, and coachable will we be? Those things will define our season!

The season didn’t end how we wanted it to but I was a remarkable year for our program.... the first top 25 ranking in the school’s history along with the first ever trip to the National Tournament. I’m really proud of our players and staff.

@apeman33 Definitely not getting deleted. You guys have the right to your opinions, that’s what makes our country great. As a public as a player wants to act is as public as I will choose to call him out. We win and graduate our players at a high level for a reason

Nobody likes playing at home more than the Lions! 30-0 at the crib over the last two seasons. Reece approves!

We are 29-0 at home since we came to LU. This season we have outscored conference opponents by over 35 a game at home before tonight. Wayland Baptist was the better team and flat outplayed us. The better team did not win tonight. They are a national tournament team. Period!

I don’t care about the NAIA’s “metrics,”they are flawed and there are definite ways to manipulate the strength of schedule. If Wayland isn’t one of the best 64 teams in the country then I know absolutely nothing about NAIA basketball. Watch our game tonight and tell me I’m wrong

Duke Hall of Fame coach, Coach K was recently asked, “What’s the difference between a great team and a championship team?” His answer was profound… “One play.” The margin for error is so very thin this time of year. 6 days away… L’s Up

This little guy is hoping we get to 5-0 today in Nebraska. We are a beat up team that hasn’t found much consistency yet on the early season.

When talented players defend and rebound at a high level, special things tend to happen. It’s not about scoring, it’s about making winning plays. If we hold teams to 30% from the field and outrebound them by 19 we won’t lose too many games. Players play, tough players win.

It’s harder for most people to handle success than it is adversity. It’s easy to forget what made you successful in the first place. We will get a good reminder today.

I love these two guys! They don’t get nearly enough credit for what we’ve done this year. They are loyal, hardworking, and both have a heart of gold. They make the lives our players better every single day. To say that I’ve been blessed with a good staff is a huge understatement!

One of the biggest things I’ve learned at the small college level is that you have to get players that really want to be here. If guys really want to be here, they will likely buy in and you will have a chance to be great. I can’t wait until next season!

We are all entitled to an opinion…. No matter how wrong it may be. If you are going to run your mouth about us, at least be a part of a program somewhere that’s done something at some point. We definitely have a couple of games circled on the calendar this year.
