Want to – tempo – us
This guiding principle, developed by Dave during his coaching journey, reflects the values we hold dear as a family and as individuals striving for excellence in all we do.
Want To: A relentless focus on preparation and attention to detail. It’s about filling your toolbox with skills, honing them with precision, and having the confidence to apply them in moments of both adversity and success.
Tempo: A mindset of constant improvement and effort—“one more than you.” It’s the drive to push boundaries, pursue excellence, and give your best every single day.
US: Building trust and loyalty within your team, family, or community. It’s about supporting one another, leveraging strengths, and covering for each other’s weaknesses to achieve shared success.
This philosophy, rooted in lessons from legendary mentors and personal experiences, became the foundation for one of the most successful programs in Urbana University history. More importantly, it remains central to how we approach life, sports, and family as the Taynors.
Whether on the field, at work, or at home, “Want To – Tempo – US” inspires us to be our best, lift each other up, and keep moving forward together.
