Episode 25 - Jared Rusher - Andrews University men's head coach on casting a vision and shifting culture.

As a first-year head coach for Andrews University, Jared talks about his vision for the program, which he acknowledges has struggled recently. He talks about his experience with shifting culture and mentality at his prior stops at a Michigan junior college and high school. His father coached at Andrews as a kid, and Jared played for the Cardinals for one season in college, so taking this position is a full circle moment for him.He talks about the differences of coaching at a junior college versus a four-year university, the challenges of recruiting for a rebuilding program without scholarships, and how he sees AU being a destination for the kids who fall through the cracks in the national recruiting process. He talks about this upcoming 2024-2025 season and who he’s looking to lead on his roster.Thank you for listening!
