Dont think the weight room matters?
6’3 210lb Senior Guard & 6’7 220lb Freshman Forward. By the way this is at the D3 level. All levels of college hoops are talented & way bigger than you think.

🚨 Episode 170 is here: Attack the Process with Paris High School coach Jeremy Clodfelder.

We talk about building mental toughness through daily standards, not just big speeches. From “standard over feelings” to demanding without demeaning, this conversation is packed with practical ideas for coaches, athletes, and leaders.
Don’t just trust the process. Attack it.

Blessed to be a guest on the Mental Mettle podcast. Check it out, give it a like, share it, and subscribe. Great thing Coach is doing here.
Some coaches win games and still feel empty. This episode is for them.
New episode of The Mental Mettle Podcast: mentalmettlecoach.com/post/e…
In this conversation, we dig into:
• How Greg realized he was “coaching out of fear, not love”
• His shift from an old-school, iron-fist style to a heart-first, relationship-driven approach
• Why deep tournament runs (Elite Eight, Sweet 16) still left him unsatisfied when it was only about wins and losses
• How coaching the heart has actually created tougher, more connected teams
• What it means to have a “spiritual caddy” and a foxhole brother walking with you in Scripture, prayer, and honest accountability
• How this transformation changed him at home as a husband and father, not just as a coach on the sideline
If you’re a coach, parent, or leader who senses there has to be more than the scoreboard, this episode will challenge how you define success and how you lead the people entrusted to you.

New episode of The Mental Mettle Podcast is live:
Episode 137: Making Football the Best Part of a Kid’s Day with State Champion Coach Garrett Mueller
🔗 mentalmettlecoach.com/post/e…
In this conversation with Stewartville (MN) head coach and state champion Garrett Mueller, we dive into:
• Why he moved away from old-school “grind” practices
• How Feed the Cats / sprint-based football reshaped his program
• Making football the best part of a kid’s day instead of a daily beatdown
• Using joy, recovery, and mental health to build a championship culture
• Coaching alongside his Hall of Fame dad—and now coaching his own sons
• Avoiding youth burnout and re-centering when success dips
• The power of “Hunt the Good Stuff” as a daily mindset
If you’re a coach, parent, or athlete who believes there’s a better way than endless conditioning and punishment, this episode is for you.
