OUR MISSION:

Brick By Brick: Three Core Principles:
TOUGHNESS: Being physically and mentally tough while never outwardly showing fatigue (i.e. no
bending over, no hands on knees, etc.), battling through any physical pain in order to finish the drill or
rep and by forcing yourself out of bad habits and into good habits. Toughness is a choice!
ACCOUNTABLE: Doing the right thing when no one is looking and no one is there to give you credit for
your actions. Being a man your teammates can count on in tough times. Being a man your teammates
can model themselves after off the field (i.e. no excuses, keep locker room and weight room clean,
teammate next to you doing what he is supposed to, on time to class/meetings/tutor, take care of
yourself).
INTELLIGENT: Working hard to educate yourself in the class room and film room (i.e. preparation, work
hard in the film room/classroom, know your assignment and alignment and know your opponent).
