To my athletes hoping to send out film and get recognized. Your twitter page is your first intro, make sure it looks professional. Use this template to help you set it up!

Parents poisoning team culture through their kids. Your whispers in the car become their words in the locker room. Choose wisely.

You 6’2 and below high school point/shooting guards with zero offers going into your junior/senior year would make really good Receivers & DBs.. & you’ll get offered over here.. But, keep hoopin’ & miss out on free education if ya want! #JustSayin 🤷🏽‍♂️..

The Offensive Line doesn’t need any other position to be good. Every other position needs the Offensive Line to be good. The most important position group in football.

I’m convinced there’s two types of Air Raid Coaches. Those who base the offense off of Mesh, And those who base it off Four Verticals. They both have their place but usually one is your go-to and the other is a compliment.

Summer almost here 🤣🤣🤣

“Coach, I’m not playing so I can focus on (different single sport).” Is the worst thing you can speak into existence as a coach, parent, or private trainer. If a coach tells you that, he’s not worth his GaPSC Certification…

Nobody never tells the stories about the kids that had 40 or 50 offers and Only 3 were committable. Just because a coach comes by your school and offers you it doesn't mean its committable.

That jersey was worn before you. It’ll be worn after you. Your only job? Make the next person proud to put it on.

Best advice I've ever received as a RB.....start every play trying to gain 4 yards.....nothing good starts before 4 yards and everything after 4 yards is cream on top

The worst part of this whole drill for me (beyond how silly it looks) is how many people are just standing around. Players standing around just watching, coaches standing around just talking. This is a huge pet peeve of mine during practice

Today is the day @UPIKEFOOTBALL

When a state addresses its teacher shortage by lowering the standards to become a teacher, rather than focusing on making teaching a more sustainable and respected career, it signals a HUGE PROBLEM!

Every training camp I had at Washington State University, Coach Leach would share the same story. The story of two kids. The rich kid and the poor kid. The rich kid has two choices. He can become spoiled, entitled, lazy, and expect everything to be handed to him because he has been given more. Or he can take every advantage of what he has been given—resources, coaching, opportunities—and use it to become even better. The poor kid has two choices too. He can say, “I never had a chance. Nobody gave me anything. The world is against me.” He can feel sorry for himself and use it as an excuse. Or he can say, “I may not have what they have, but I am going to outwork everybody.” He can become tougher, more driven, and more relentless than everybody else. It was a powerful message in a locker room full of people from different backgrounds, different families, and different life experiences. Some guys came from wealth. Some came from almost nothing. Some had every opportunity. Others had to fight for every inch. But despite all of those differences, everybody still had the same choice. You can take ownership and use what you have as fuel. Or you can become victim-minded. You can look for excuses, blame your circumstances, become entitled, and convince yourself that because of what you have—or because of what you do not have—you cannot become what you want to be. It is not about how you start. It is about what you choose to do with how you start. The rich kid can waste what he has been given or use it to build something greater. The poor kid can use his circumstances as an excuse or as fuel. In the end, greatness does not come from starting with more or less. It comes from which person inside of you that you choose to feed.

You don’t want to listen to the coaches who know, so maybe you’ll listen to the All- Pro.

If you know me, you know I love the game! I love the game to the point where I have to give it back. A lot of folks want to teach these kids goofy shit and things that won’t work in the game.I’m going to criticize and critique you until we understand how to break the defender down! I’m here to make or break you! S/o @drobalwayzopen , @the_antoine_wesley , and @coachwvde . We are building something special right here in DFW. If you truly care about taking the next step, you know who to call. By the way, if you can’t take coaching, you won’t make it over here! Let’s get it.

I coached college football for 20 years. The question that decided who played had nothing to do with talent: "Can I trust you?" Every player on my roster was Green, Yellow, or Red. 🟢 Green — trusted and deployed 🟡 Yellow — developing, right on the edge 🔴 Red — talented but not yet deployable Talent gets players noticed. Trust gets them on the field. Coaches and families both need to understand this. nomoathletics.com

Tom Brady: “You need coaches that push you outside your comfort zone because that’s how you grow and that’s how you develop self confidence and self esteem. They push you to deal with failure.”

A position coach comes back from a spring contact trip and hits the recruiting meeting with a report on every school he visited. At most stops, it is a rundown of film, measurables, and what the high school coach said. But every now and then, he has something different to say. "The kid came up to me after the workout. Introduced himself. Asked about the offense. Looked me in the eye the whole time." Those kids end up higher on the board than their measurables should put them. Contact period is not a spectator sport. If a coach is at your school this week, go find him. Shake his hand. Be the kid he talks about when he gets back to the office.

On day 1 of my high school history class, our professor got up and said You are 15 or 16 years old. 200 years ago people your age were married, planted crops, had children, and built a cabin by winter. You can do your homework. The bar set for you historically is embarrassingly low. You are not dealing with regional famine or plague. You do not have to save your family from marauders or go into battle to destroy your enemies. You have to sit down and learn from someone who cares about you in a safe, air-conditioned room. You have no excuses.

Quarterbacks have to watch so much film that they know the answers before the snap. That’s the difference. Everybody loves the throw.
Nobody talks about the hours. A real QB doesn’t just line up and hope.
He already knows: •the front •the coverage •the pressure •the leverage •the protection •the answer If you’re figuring it out after the snap, you’re already beat. Anybody can throw it.
Very few can process it.
