What Can We Learn from Rudy? -- The Lost Episodes of Coaching Character Podcast, Volume 8, with Coach Roz

In Episode 96 and other episodes this summer, we are taking a break from our normal programming to share with you some unreleased episodes from the Coaching Character Podcast, which Phil recorded with Coach Roz, who played football for the Oakland Raiders and San Diego State, and now runs The Playmakers, which works with at-risk and developmentally different children. This is great content that we wanted to ensure got the airtime it deserves. In this episode, Coach Roz and Phil talk about their conversation with Chris Saras, covering topics such as whether attitude and effort are nature or nurture, strategies for improving our players' attitude and effort, what we can learn from Rudy, the importance of mission statements, and how coaches and parents need to work together to help their players flourish to their fullest.
