    What do great coaches say after failure? How do they continue learning after decades in the profession? And what really separates coaching philosophy from coaching dogma?

    In this episode of The Swim Brief, three-time U.S. Olympic coach Dave Salo reflects on the lessons that shaped his careerโ€”from challenging conventional wisdom about swim training to discovering that the words coaches choose can stay with an athlete for a lifetime.

    Together we discuss the evolution of college swimming, the famous debate between Dave Salo and Doc Counsilman over training philosophy, why coach development deserves more attention, what USA Swimming can do to better support coaches, and how curiosity has fueled Dave’s growth across nearly five decades in the sport.

    Whether you’re a swim coach, athlete, or simply interested in leadership and high performance, this conversation offers practical lessons that extend far beyond the pool.
