    Ep 2770 Can You Really Teach Aggression?
    Nov 15 2025
    www.teachhoops.com Every coach says they want their players to “play harder.” But what does that really mean — and can you actually teach it? In this episode of Coach Unplugged, Hall-of-Fame coach Steve Collins dives into the art of developing aggression the right way — where players compete fiercely without losing control. You’ll learn: Why “aggression” isn’t about fouling harder — it’s about reacting faster. How to use controlled-chaos drills to hard-wire competitive energy. What language, tone, and habits model toughness for your team. The secret to making your quiet players compete with fire. Coach Collins shares proven ways to shift a team’s identity mid-season — and stories of how mental aggression, not just physical effort, changed everything. 🔥 Brought to you by www.DrDishBasketball.com — The #1 shooting machine trusted by champions — and www.TeachHoops.com — where coaches go to get better.
