Jim Mora, former NFL Coach of the Year, lays out what makes teams work: show up on time, stay positive, do your job at home and school. He wants players who are talented and hard-working but also coachable and willing to put the team first.
Come to work every day, come to school every day and then have a good attitude, get along with people, be on time, do your work, your homework, do your stuff. Get into some other things you can do at school besides just go to class. And then when you go home, be a good son, be a good daughter to your parents, on time, good behavior. These are the kind of things that you want. I know that I want on a team. I want a team. I want good people on my team. I want good people that are talented and then you're going to be successful. They'll work hard, they'll be easy to coach, they'll give it their best. They won't be all worried about themselves. They're going to be team oriented. They want to do what's best for the team. What can I do, coach, to make this team better? That's the kind of player I wanted to. And I think that's what you want to do and the right kind of person you want to be as you go throughout your life.
