Coach Stein has been a trainer and a leadership expert. Coaches see everything. When coaches have asked me about players, they don't ask about a player's athleticism, their statistics, or their GPA. They've done their homework on the player.
They want to know about a player's character - who they are beyond the measurables? Are you a worker, a good teammate, a leader? Are you a problem solver or a problem person? Commit to becoming an answer.
Lagniappe. Easy game to help you 'read the ball'.
Underrated leadership hack: Repeat yourself. Almost no one hears you the first time. Your team is focused, driving, and probably overwhelmed. Say it once and they miss it. Say it ten times and they'll hear it for the first time. Repetition isn't boring. It's strategic clarity.
