Before I ever got into coaching, I got my law degree at Pepperdine.
I find young kids. I enjoy coaching and enjoy making them better players.
I think there is a lot of experiences you have in coaching, and if you learn from the experiences as you go through them, whether it’s as a coordinator or position coach, a quality-control coach, a head coach, whatever it might be, and you learn from those mistakes you make.
I think it’s really important that we get an experienced staff. Guys that have been a head coach, to me, at some level is important to me. I value head coaching just because it’s good to know what it’s like to be the decision maker.
The essence of my coaching is to serve.
I’d lost the joy of coaching. There were times after a win when I was shouting at my assistants leaving the field because I wasn’t happy with the way we’d played. I had lost what I started out to be in coaching: Someone who had a positive effect on the lives of my players.
I’ve been following some of the coaches, trying to get a little bit more experience, because coaching is very different from being a player.
It’s that way all the way down the line. I’ve got a boy coaching college ball and another son coaching high school. All the way down to summer leagues, all the way down to kids who are 14 years old. All those teams have a closer.
There is something powerful about sitting courtside and watching closely the interactions of players with their teammates, with their opponents, with their coaching staff.

If I walk into a room, I’m quite content to sit in the corner and chat with people who walk by. But coaching forced me to come out of my shell.
I would love to coach and teach people about football. It’s just that the time constraints are so tough to coach, especially when you have seven kids and they are growing up. I’m just in too blessed of a situation to spend from five in the morning until 12 at night coaching and not watching my kids grow up.
Coaching is not easy.
I like coaching a lot.
But I think sometimes, coaching less is better. That’s the art of coaching, figuring out with each kid what is the right way to approach it?

The basketball experience that I have, you can use in different areas, but coaching itself, you have to go out there and learn on the fly.

Don’t get me wrong; I miss the live elements of coaching.
I would never close the door on coaching in Mexico.
Starting a business is similar to an athletic endeavor, like serving a tennis ball. Telling you how to do it is useless. You actually get better through a combination of practice, coaching, and repetitions with money on the line.
I remember doing my first coaching sessions at Macclesfield, when I was still playing, and I was just terrible. I felt really uncomfortable standing in front of people, and it felt very odd. It was not something I was naturally comfortable with at all.
I have conquered my space in four, five years and never had any problems with anyone – the fans, the board, my team-mates, the coaching staff. That has not changed.

A combine is a series of athletic tasks that help a coaching staff measure an athlete’s ability to be competitive in a sport. A bobsled combine requires a sprint, broad jump, two-handed shot toss, and a back squat and power clean.
It has to be the right fit. Coaching is about fits.
The reason you get into coaching in the first place is to help and develop, try to make people better.

I could not be more proud of the countless lives that I have changed since I began my coaching and mentoring career!

Kentucky is the best job in basketball coaching. Why would I leave?
As coaches, we usually have plenty of changes from one year to the next. Sometimes it seems like it’s at one position. Sometimes it’s across the board. But this is really a part of every year that we have in coaching in the NFL.
There’s a lot of good Latin personnel out in baseball, coaching, in the front office, and it’s nice to be recognized. But I really believe I’m here because of my merit, not because of any race or anything like that.
Even though I retired from coaching, I still believe that is my calling.
I love when violent, dangerous art is done by people who are not violent and dangerous. I love that when George Romero was making ‘Dawn of the Dead,’ he was coaching his son’s little league team.
I’m always excited when it comes to coaching football, mentoring guys and them becoming better people.
Coaching is not hard.
I’ve really enjoyed my time with New York City and I’d like to thank Patrick Vieira and his coaching staff for helping me to develop as a player.
I’ve been around the coaching circuit far too much.

One of the great things about coaching is it’s a different challenge every day.

To excel at the highest level – or any level, really – you need to believe in yourself, and hands down, one of the biggest contributors to my self-confidence has been private coaching.

I wouldnt mind getting into coaching at some stage.
I started coaching in the Interregionale league in Catanzaro. There were pitches with no grass; at times, we had no water, no training equipment. I had to do it all myself.

On the field, I was probably coaching more, helping players and doing my coaching badges.
