Philosophy can be defined as a particular system of thought based on study or investigation (Dictionary, Philosophy). No two people approach a problem with the same mindset. The different systems of thought from person to person comes from real world experiences that create a way of living for that person. Coaches apply that concept to figure out what works and what doesn’t in order to get the most out of their players. Coaches have a core set of principles that they take with them to every program they coach at. The players must learn those rules and stick to them in order to strive within the program. The coaching philosophy that the coach chooses to implement at the beginning of their career will define every way in which the team will function at practices and competitive play (Guthrie, Core Principles in Coaching).

Without such philosophies, players would have no discipline and the team would not become as successful as they could potentially be. Distinguished coaches, such as Pat Summitt, John Wooden, and Bo Schembechler all have various coaching philosophies that they follow and they have overlapping views and differing views about several topics. Pat Summitt was a women’s college…

Interesting and to be honest the first order of business after viewing the video was to establish a connection between this TAMUC Dr. Dawg and their institution.

Specifically, from their Center for Faculty Excellence and Innovation (Moseley, 2017). Dr. Dawg or Dr. Waller presented within the…

signing a paper of agreement from a white owner. Although Gardner is the protagonist in the film, there are definitely instances of white dominance in the film that I will get to later on.
