Speaker: Joey McGuire, Head Coach , Texas Tech University
Help inspire new coaches by introducing yourself and saying how long you've been a coach, who inspired you, what you love about it...
Joey McGuire: How's everything going? This is Coach McGuire Texas Tech. D.W., one of my favorite guys in the world, asked me to record this and say why I wanted to be a coach. Pretty simple. Man, I love being around young people and help change lives. You know, I really feel like that I was put on this earth to help them become better men, help them reach the best version of themselves. I think coaching is a calling and I think I was called to do it. Man, I'm lucky because I've been really blessed to have some great mentors, Robert Woods who's in the Hall of Honor Matt Rhule who's just an incredible coach Those guys affected me so much and helped me so much and I just, I want to pour into people, I want to continue to build coaches up to affect young people's lives. You know, we're really lucky to do what we're doing, we're blessed to do what we do and just remember this, it's all about the players. You know, the XS and Os will take care of themselves, the wins will come, but if you take care of those players, you make them better versions of themselves every single day, great things going to happen in your career. If you ever need anything, I'm always here, I'm all about coaches. Coaches are my heroes. I believe in everything that coaches do and I think we're the last people, as Coach Rutledge always says we're standing in the gap to make sure that we can continue to help young people be who they're supposed to be. Thank you, Wreck 'Em!
