Dogs and babies dominate the screen. You can't avert your eyes. Find players who can 'take over' the game the same way.
1. Dominant players dominate. A UCONN assistant asked Geno Auriemma about whom they were scouting. Auriemma answered that if you have to ask after a minute, then we're in the wrong place.
2. Who you are matters in addition to how you play. Pete Carril said, "I don't recruit players who are nasty to their parents. I look for players who realize the world doesn't revolve around them."
3. Stories have power. The Heath Brothers' Made to Stick shares elements of strong stories - simple, unexpected, concrete, credible, emotional stories. Maintain credibility by telling the truth and avoiding hyping players more suspect than prospect.
4. Have a presence. What we say and how we say it matters. Bring the best version of yourself. After being on overnight call at Bethesda Naval, we had to present cases to a group of senior physicians, adding our assessment and management. 26 Internal Medicine interns competed for what turned out to be one position. I was the dog that stayed.
5. "Fall down seven times, get up eight." - Japanese Proverb Failure is inevitable but not final. Never give up.
Such a simple move from Kemba.

Take one bounce laterally and make a read:
1️⃣ If you beat the defender's foot, attack downhill.
2️⃣ If they beat your foot, change directions pic.twitter.com/ANqSy71EIL
Need a baseline inbound special situations play?
