🎧 Rebuilding with Purpose – A Conversation with Coach Brett Parker
What does it take to turn around a college program? How do you stay committed when the results don’t come as quickly as you want?
In this episode of Significant Coaching, Matt Rogers sits down with Coach Brett Parker, Head Men’s Soccer Coach at Saint Leo University, to talk about the long game of leadership. From a Final Four run at Fort Hays State to his steady rebuild at Saint Leo, Parker shares what he’s learned about patience, persistence, and personal growth—especially in the face of adversity.
They dive into what it’s really like to lead through tough seasons, how COVID reshaped recruiting and coaching, and why sometimes the most challenging years produce the most valuable lessons.
Whether you’re a coach, parent, or athlete—this one will remind you that significance isn’t built overnight.
