University of Richmond Head Football Coach Russ Huesman feels good about his team going into the 2020 season, citing that he has players that are true leaders. “It’s easy for you to go get an extra lift in,” he says, but the true leaders – “they start to grab one, grab two, grab three, and bring people along…the guys doing that are turning into really good leaders.” A Division 1 football coaching veteran, Coach Huesman learned from some of the best including former Richmond Head Coach Dave Clawson (current head coach at Wake Forest) and longtime William & Mary Head Coach Jimmye Laycock, who served in that position for 38 straight years. In 2008, Coach Huesman served as the Defensive Coordinator for Head Coach Mike London, when the Spiders won University of Richmond’s first ever National Championship. To no surprise, he credits the players’ accountability to each other for that championship season. “True Leadership” is all about being a great teammate and in this episode, you’ll find many lessons that are once again applicable to not only sports, but business and life as well.
