"Be the best you can be." "Everyone has their own level of greatness." Those were the words from NFL Kansas City Chiefs Coach Todd Haley to the packed crowd of 400 people at Monday's Rotary meeting. Jefferson City, Helias, and Blair Oaks High School football teams and coaches joined the Rotary Club members to hear the second-youngest head coach in the Chiefs' franchise history. At 44 years old, Haley consistently pushes his players with a passionate and demanding approach that has already paid dividends for the franchise. His message, not only directed to the young football players in the room, but to all the Rotary members, whether in business or their personal lives, was not to miss the opportunities that you have now, and give your best all the time.

Coach Haley was introduced by Dr. Mike Monaco, the Chiefs' team physician, former co-captain of the Jefferson City Jays Football Team, and son of long time member, Nick Monaco.

Also offering a few words from the audience was Lincoln Head Coach Mike Jones, former super bowl star for the St. Louis Rams. Listen to the link below to hear Coach Haley's remarks.
