On this episode of the Rising Coaches Podcast, we’re joined by BJ Ivey, Athletic Director and Head Coach at Sarasota High School. Ivey played at Riverview High School and USC Aiken before building his coaching career through stops at Riverview, Nike Team Florida, Adidas Team Florida, Florida Gulf Coast, Out-of-Door Academy, and now Sarasota. In this episode we discuss what rebuilding a former rival taught him about creating a winning culture, how he established academic standards that led to three straight academic state championships, and the offensive and defensive principles that have helped his teams compete for state titles.
