Empowering Others to Do Their Best – Jeff Traylor, Head Coach, UTSA
The journey of a coach is often a story of evolution and growth. In this episode, Jeff Traylor, head coach at the University of Texas, San Antonio (UTSA), provides a compelling narrative of his transformation in the game.
Transitioning from a high school coach to a college coach, Coach Traylor reflects on the pivotal moments that shaped his coaching philosophy. From his early focus on offensive prowess to a more holistic approach encompassing defense, special teams, and player development, his journey exemplifies the continuous learning and adaptation required in the coaching profession.
Coach Traylor's emphasis on humility and self-reflection offers valuable insights for coaches at all levels. His willingness to take a step back and embrace new roles, such as serving as a passing game coordinator before assuming head coaching responsibilities, underscores the importance of continuous learning and growth in one's coaching career. His philosophy of empowering assistant coaches and providing them with clear job descriptions and resources highlights the significance of effective leadership in fostering a cohesive and successful coaching staff.
Finally, Coach Traylor digs into the "Triangle of Toughness," a foundational principle in his coaching philosophy that encapsulates the core values and culture he instills within his team.
