  • 178. Creating Your Coaching Philosophy | Rusty Rogers | Retired, Concordia University Chicago

    We're bringing back a fan favorite and special 2W episode on creating and shaping your coaching philosophy with Coach Rusty Rogers, retired Concordia Chicago's Head Women's Basketball Coach. This episode is a special one because Coach Rogers coached one of our very own 2W team members.

    Coach Rogers shares his story and how his mindset on coaching was changed after the birth of his daughter. He talked about the shift from thinking solely about winning and records to focusing on using basketball as a facilitator for his ministry of creating a sense of confidence and character in his athletes.

    • Know your why
    • Light a fire within your athletes, not beneath them
    • Emphasis on character building will completely transform your organizations culture and record.

  • 169. The Coaches' Carousel | Live with Mackey and Colton

    In our latest episode, we're bringing back an interview with Mackey and Colton that was one of you all's favorites!

    Mackey and Colton are live talking about how to make where you are the big time.

    Mackey talks about the idea that as coaches, we can easily look for the next big play, get prepared for our next move, when in reality, we need to make where we are big time.

    Key takeaways from this podcast:

    • Where you are has got to be the big time for you.
    • "Big time" has little to do with the stature of the program, but has a lot to do with what you bring to the program.
    • If you aren't willing to put in the work today, you won't reach your goal tomorrow.
