Description

In this episode of The Daily Coach newsletter in audio form, we revisit the story of Tobin Anderson, whose decades of coaching in small gyms led to one of the greatest upsets in college basketball history. Long before leading Fairleigh Dickinson to a stunning win over top-seeded Purdue, Anderson built his foundation through years of quiet dedication, persistence, and belief. His journey reminds us that talent exists at every level, opportunity can come at any time, and true leadership is found in showing up fully for the work right in front of us.
