All-Access with Jeff Capel of Oklahoma

This is an ESPN all-access clip of Jeff Capel, head coach of Oklahoma. It goes in the locker room and behind the bench. No real X's and O's revelations, but I just enjoy hearing other coaches talking to their teams before, during and after games.



I know some coaches don't put much credence into speeches probably because they aren't natural speakers to begin with, but I don't think you can under-estimate their importance. A good locker room speech can and will help motivate your players to play as hard as they possibly can. Just feeling the amazing wave of fervor that Barak Obama has been able to muster around the world shows what the power of words can do.

If you liked this speech, you may also like this one from John Calipari during last year's NCAA run.
