It is obvious to everyone associated with this program that this is a new era in Lancer Football History. Your work in the off season is everything a coaching staff could ask for. "IT IS NOW TIME TO REFILL OUR FOOTBALL SKILLS BUCKET". Spring camp will be vital for us to take the next step in this process. Chapter 1 in our book was "DESERVING TO BELIEVE"; WE DID THAT. Now Chapter 2 is "DESERVING TO BE FEARLESS" and developing that SWAGGER that all great teams possess. The following video is not entirely how we want our program to become or how we want to represent ourselves but I will tell you what; THE U of MIAMI definitely has a SWAGGER. Looking forward to working together for another memorable season with you guys.

DO YOU WANT TO BE A LANCER

Great video: Remove the word fighter and insert LANCER. QUICK AND TO THE POINT. "Take these words to heart"

Badwater 135
This is a video detailing the Badwater 135 "The toughest roadrace on the planet. Just watch the first part and pay special attention to the quote at 5:30 where the athlete states that "The person who is sitting here today could never finish Badwater but he is confident that he can create THAT person through proper training and ultimately accomplish this goal".
Hey, the time is getting short to "Create That Person" who is going to help the Lancer Football team be as successful as I believe we can be. Suck it up with no excuses and only results.
Enjoy

A FEW TRUTHS by JIMMY MAC
The following list stems from my recent successes and failures as an athlete and a coach, and I hope you find it useful. Because it is my list, it is more for me than it is for you, but there is no harm in sharing.
1.) It is always possible to work harder. Not necessarily longer or more often--just harder.
2.) If you try to accomplish everything, you won't accomplish anything. Pick a single goal, and dedicate yourself to achieving that goal.
3.) The further you go from your home gym, the more likely you are to run into someone who is faster, stronger, and more powerful than you. Travel, and bring your humility.
4.) You must surround yourself with those who share and support your goals. If your friends scoff when you leave for the gym at 5 a.m., get new friends.
5.) You cannot coach yourself. "Coaching by mirror" is a great way to know what a movement looks like and a horrible way to know what a movement feels like.
6.) You need to analyze your training, qualitatively and quantitatively. If you don't know why you're doing what you're doing, stop doing it.
7.) On a related note, human beings are capable of rationalizing anything. If you go looking for proof that you're on the right track, you'll find it.
8.) Easy fixes are few and far between. If it's easy, chances are it's incorrect, incomplete, or both.
9.) It is human nature to get where you want to be and immediately stop doing the things that got you there. This is a fantastic way to stay right where you are.
All lessons can't be bright and cheery. Get rid of the crap that's holding you back, and have the courage to realize that a healthy dose of self-criticism can go a long way toward making you a better athlete. We all need a kick in the ass once in a while.
