    If this was an AD position supporting all programs then that makes sense

    Looks like a response to the players requests last year during peak covid

    Whatever. It's not going to stop any winning. It's a university. It's what they do

    Every college football team hires a life coach?

    OTOH, CJ Wallace told me that Willingham brought in the author of The Secret. If they believed in winning, it would happen, so the message went.
    That’s the type of shit people who believe words > actions do

    Also... I might have that detail wrong. They definitely watched The Secret, but I might be wrong about the author coming in.

    I have seen this guy speak…. my former employer brought them in. Engaging and very good for a corporate environment
