Standards over Wins: The Mark of a Great Coach

The key to being a successful coach lies in setting and maintaining high standards, rather than focusing solely on wins and losses. Coach K, considered the greatest coach of all time, prioritized instilling standards like those of Duke and USA basketball in his players. By emphasizing these standards, the team won 131 games in four years without explicitly focusing on winning individual games, instilling a culture of excellence in every player that walked through the doors.
