During that time, players asked me one question more than any other: “Coach, what do I have to do to make the starting lineup next year?” My answer was always the same: “Work on your left foot.” The logic is simple.

Both of my parents had educations that stopped at the 8th grade (although my mother got a GED as an adult), and none of my siblings graduated from college. So I'm keenly aware of the value of a college degree, and the importance of the opportunity to earn a degree. But where opportunity resides, and how that has shifted over time, are both important topics worthy of exploration and discussion.
