Quote of the day
“I plan on changing a little bit of the structure. Not the overall how we’re practicing, but maybe the structure and having some more competitive periods early in practice so that it’s just like a game. I don’t want to go through stretch, and then individual and group work and then team. That’s usually how you kind of structure practice. You go from part to whole, right? Individual, group work, team.
“I’m probably going to start with some team good on good situations early in practice just to get them in the right mindset of, ‘Okay, whenever we say go, it’s go.’ I’m gonna try to do that in practice.”
