Now, the hard part - How?
I'll tell you how. You get rid of, "losing is okay as long as you have a good enough excuse," and, "if you don't know where you are going, the path of least resistance will get you there."
Several of us have mentioned Wayne Graham. How many times have you ever heard him say anything that sounded like either one of those? My over and under number is zero. Wayne had a vision and he implemented it. Quite frankly, Wayne was my choice for AD when Chris left, and if not then certainly when Ranger Rick left.
What we need is not a miracle coach or an EZF. We need a paradigm shift. And one of the things that needs to be part of that paradigm shift is an emphasis on revenues--and that's butts-in-seats revenues, not just donation revenues. And we need to jump start the process somewhere.
Yep - and IMO that is winning some games. That would be a good start toward putting butts in seats. Not just Rice butts, but Harris County butts.
BTW, you have never heard me say either of those two things, either.
Advocating winning at a high level consistently is not taking a path of least resistance. Not sure why you keep throwing them at me.
