About this episode
Alan Haire discusses the importance of relationships in athletics and the value of public education for youth sports.
Head football coach and athletic director for the Jarrell Cougars, Alan Haire has been doing what he's doing long enough to know what is important and what comes second. From home visits to greeting kids at the door when they come in, relationships drive the atmosphere of his athletic program. Expectations are high for the cougars and hard work is an every day expectation for athletes and coaches alike. But this is what it takes to prepare young men for the real world outside of the school system and this is his priority. Being a master motivator every day is required to be a part of his athletic staff and this is what brings success to Coach Haire's program.
