A Tale of Two Parents (Same Camp. Two Outcomes.)
This weekend, two parents watched their athletes compete at the same national camp. Same drills.Same environment.Same pressure. What separated the outcomes wasn’t the camp —it was what happened after. 🟢 Parent #1 (After a Rough Camp): “You just didn’t have it today.” The athlete hears: - It was random - There’s nothing to fix - Move on and hope next time is better The result?Nothing changes. 🟢 Parent #2 (After the Same Camp): “Let’s talk about what changed when the pressure picked up.” The athlete hears: - This is information - Pressure exposed something trainable - Growth is possible Same camp.Two very different paths. 🟢 After a “Good” Camp: One parent says: “Now you have to keep this up.” Another says: “Let’s double down on what worked.” One creates pressure.The other creates confidence. 👉 The Question That Matters Most: What does your athlete hear from you on the drive home? A️⃣ ExcusesB️⃣ PressureC️⃣ AccountabilityD️⃣ PerspectiveE️⃣ I’ve never really thought about this before ⬇️ Comment with the letter — this conversation matters more than the chart. Camps don’t define athletes.Post-camp conversations define what happens next.

Last Post on Skool...
Hey everyone. With so much going on my focus moving forward with everything we are doing just seems like this Skool Community is not an expense that in the long run is helpful to run. So for you who have NOT downloaded any of the FREE NIL and College Scholarship courses I have built for you this community will no longer be posting after July 15th. Have a great day! Marc

As The Four Tops used to sing... "Its The Same Ol Song"
Every year, (no matter the sport or the season or even the athlete) parents try to "work" through the maze of the NCAA (who I coined the CARTEL) and every year, parents seem to get further and further away from knowing just how devious the NCAA (and sadly yes even the NFHS) organizations do thier best to "put the screws" to the high school athlete and their parents. Now we have the LATEST (with of course more NEW lawsuits) coming down the road with the 5 to play 5 (and yes even before the NCAA and the College Sports Commission can vote, there is already a case moving through the court system Patterson V NCAA). Look- Ive been dealing with the CARTEL since my NLI back in 1973 and after 53 years I know there pattern. C and C. CONTROL and CHAOS. Especially since in recent years they have taken a beating in courts and yes have lost BILLIONS. But, like all good CARTELS they will find a way BACK to ensure they make even MORE- and this is the heart of the 5 to play 5 .And lastly, in this group who are the ones going to make MORE Money? The LAWYERS and as I coined the phrase in my College Athletic Scholarship book back in 2021 NIL stand for NOW its Legal- and Now iIts (the) Lawyers. In the end, the parents will continue to struggle and the high school athletes will continue to lose scholarship opportunities while Mom and Dad spend all their time and money in the $50 Billion a year in the Youth Sports Industrial Complex! Next year, I'll be back writing the next chapter of the CARTEL in college sports, and lets hope some of you will listen- and not to focus on the STARS! Coach Nolan
