Princeton University Head Coach Ben Syer: Positive peer pressure, finding a player's "wow" factor and not jumping ship

Glass and Out

In episode #259, we welcome Ben Syer, who was recently named Head Coach of Princeton University's men's program.

Previously, he spent eight seasons as an assistant with Quinnipiac University and 13 with Cornell University. During that time, Cornell won an ECAC Championship and made 6 trips to the NCAA tournament.

Based on the outpouring of support he's received from his peers, there is no doubt that Syer is deserving of this new position and is set up to have success leading the Tigers.

Listen as he shares why positive peer pressure is the key to creating a competitive environment, finding the "wow" factor in a player's game, and the importance of improving the situation you're in, rather than jumping ship.
