In this episode of the Sprint-Based Football presented by Titans Sports, host Tony Holler and Thad Wells dive deep into the philosophy behind sprint-based football and how coaching success is often found in simplicity, balance, and personal growth. Thad shares his evolution from an ambitious young coach to a thoughtful leader shaped by reading, reflection, and hard lessons learned. Together, they discuss the mental and emotional realities of coaching — from navigating identity crises and burnout to building systems that value efficiency over exhaustion. With powerful concepts like "Rock Top vs. Rock Bottom" and “Don’t bring me problems — bring me solutions,” this episode challenges conventional coaching wisdom and advocates for a smarter, more intentional approach to leadership, practice, and life.
