Overachievement

Here are your program builders. This category is the most important indicator of future success. As I have stated often, Overachievement Above Talent Level is the catalyst for the Synergistic Trend to take hold and begin the elevation of a program.

This is “hot seat city.” A couple of these coaches may have extenuating circumstances affecting the program. Nevertheless, this metric identifies the coaches that have to improve or they will be let go within the next 2 seasons.
