The Belichick-Saban Standard

In this episode of The Daily Coach newsletter in audio form, we revisit championship standards, mutual respect, and the pursuit of mastery.

First, we examine the rare bond between Bill Belichick and Nick Saban—two of the most accomplished coaches in football history. Despite their different styles, both built dynasties rooted in discipline, character, and relentless preparation.

Next, we unpack the shared beliefs that defined their leadership: sacrifice over ego, simplicity before complexity, and an unwavering commitment to what comes next.

This episode challenges us to focus less on outcomes and more on the process—because real greatness isn’t about the scoreboard. It’s about how we show up.
