Cooper Neimand is a Performance Coach for College Basketball Coaches. Neimand helps college coaches gain control, prioritize themselves, and build championship habits and cultures.

Cooper was previously a Men’s Basketball Assistant Coach at D2 Lincoln Memorial University in Tennessee where he began his tenure in 2019. Prior to that he was an assistant at D2 Lander University in South Carolina for two seasons. Neimand also spent four years on the coaching staff at Wesleyan Christian Academy in High Point, North Carolina, under head coach and Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) legend Keith Gatlin.

On this episode Mike & Cooper discuss the profound impact of coaching habits and mindsets on personal and team success, highlighting that the essence of effective coaching lies in self-awareness and prioritization. Cooper emphasizes that many coaches often find themselves overwhelmed due to a lack of boundaries and an incessant drive to work harder, which can ultimately hinder both their personal well-being and their team's performance. Through a series of compelling anecdotes and practical insights, we explore how coaches can cultivate championship habits and foster a healthier culture within their teams. Neimand's journey from assistant coach to performance consultant underscores the necessity of supporting coaches in their growth, enabling them to not only thrive in their roles but also to ensure their teams flourish. This episode serves as a crucial reminder that the path to success is rooted in understanding oneself and nurturing the relationships that empower coaches and players alike.
