(VIDEO)Coach Was Furious When His Players Disrespected National Anthem, So He Does THIS To Teach Them A Lesson!
This is how you coach basketball: it starts long before the ball hits the court. It begins with instilling values like respect and gratitude—teaching players that their ability to play the game is a privilege. A privilege secured by young men their age who put their lives and education on hold to fight for the freedoms we sometimes take for granted.
Today, the national anthem has become part of the spectacle at major sporting events. I have nothing against Lady Gaga or any celebrity performing it, but these young athletes need to understand the deeper significance behind the anthem. They need to grasp why it’s performed and what it represents.
Virginia Tech basketball coach Buzz Williams took this message to heart, delivering a powerful and emotional lesson to his players about honoring the anthem. His approach cuts through the noise and leaves an impact that will bring you to tears.
