Simple Advice For The Head Coach And The Assistant Coach - Greg Schiano, Head Coach, Rutgers Apr 11, 2022

Show notes

Today's Episode is from the 2021 "Believe" Clinic presented by the New Jersey Football Coaches Association. In this episode, Coach Schiano shares simple advice for the head coach and the assistant coach. In his recent experiences he's been in both positions and came to a clear understanding of what each position needs to do to best support the other. What is the Believe Clinic and Who is Eric LeGrand? On October 16, 2010 at MetLife stadium, Eric LeGrand ran down on a kick off for Rutgers and didn’t walk off the field. He couldn’t move. He couldn’t breathe, and Coach Schiano came out on the field knelt and looked down at Eric and said, “Pray.” Becoming paralyzed playing the game he loved didn’t change his passion for the game or the lessons he had taken from it. It provided him the courage and inspiration to go out into the world and do more. Eric has shown the world that obstacles can be transformed into opportunities, and he will continue to drive his mission forward until he delivers on Christopher Reeve’s dream of a world with empty wheelchairs. To Eric, it is not matter of if he walks again, but rather when. To help Eric on his mission, Coach Schiano, the Rutgers staff, and the New Jersey Football Coaches Association have launched the virtual “Believe” Clinic with all proceeds to benefit "The Christopher Reeves Foundation" on behalf of Eric LeGrand. Show Notes: -Unique perspective of being a head coach, then assistant and head coach -What is the job of a head coach? -Communicate a crystal clear vision -Too much culture -Most teams/organizations can’t communication their culture -PAR (Post Action Reporting) -#1 job of assistant coach -Give the head coach your opinion -3 time rule -Learning from Coach Pattern -“Paul Revere” the head coach and the rest of the staff Attend the 2022 Virtual "Believe" Clinic: https://njfca2022.coachesclinic.com/ Related: Episode with Eric LeGrand: https://soundcloud.com/user-804678956/eric-legrand-a-mission-bigger-than-the-game-and-the-njfca-believe-clinic The Law of Three - Greg Schiano: https://soundcloud.com/user-804678956/the-law-of-three-greg-schiano-head-coach-rugters-university
