Nate Shallenberger

My wife successfully defended her doctorate today! She passed with no changes needed. She is a doctor! Proud is not a strong enough word. Tears of joy. And Monica shed a couple too 😂 Congratulations Dr. Shallenberger! 🎉🙌🥹 You inspire me to be a better person! ❤️❤️

I’ve listened to @BallCoachJoeMo Clinic multiple times and I’ve never been disappointed! Selfless in giving of his time and information and phenomenal teacher! Cannot say enough good things about him, and I’m rooting for him to be successful @ZipsFB Thanks @CoachKGrabowski

@DoctorLemma Still brings a tear to my eyes. I remember this and it was beautiful! We were saying we were “hotter than a pistol” for months after this during pickup games too 😁

19 years ago, a high school basketball coach put his team manager into a game for the final four minutes. The kid had never played a single minute of competitive basketball in his life. He scored 20 points. Jason McElwain was diagnosed with severe autism at age two. He didn’t speak until he was five. He couldn’t chew solid food until he was six. He wore a nappy for most of his early childhood. As a baby, he was rigid, wouldn’t make eye contact, and hid in corners away from other children. He tried out for his school basketball team every year and got cut every time. Too small. Too slight. Barely 5’6 and about 54 kilograms. But he loved the game so much that his mum called the school and asked if there was any way he could be involved. The coach created a team manager role for him. For three years, McElwain showed up to every practice and every game. He wore a shirt and tie on match days. He ran drills, handed out water, kept stats, and cheered every basket like he’d scored it himself. On 15 February 2006, the last home game of his final school year, the coach let him suit up in a proper jersey and sit on the bench. With four minutes left and a comfortable lead, the coach sent him in. His first shot missed. His second missed. Then something shifted. He hit a three-pointer. Then another. Then another. His teammates stopped shooting entirely and just kept passing him the ball. He hit six three-pointers and a two-pointer. 20 points in four minutes. The highest scorer in the game. When the final buzzer went, the entire crowd rushed the court and lifted him onto their shoulders. His mum tapped the coach on the shoulder, in tears. “This is the nicest gift you could have ever given my son.” McElwain won the ESPY Award for Best Moment in Sports that year, beating out some of the biggest names in professional sport. He’s 36 now. He works at a local supermarket, coaches basketball, has run 17 marathons including five Boston Marathons, and travels the country speaking about never giving up. When asked about that night, his coach still gets emotional. “For him to come in and seize the moment like he did was certainly more than I ever expected. I was an emotional wreck.”

Crazy that I read your response the other day. Was walking my 3 dogs (8 lbs, 50 lbs and 68 lbs) predawn yesterday and ran into 4 German Shepherds on the loose. Stood in front of my dogs, yelled “NO! SIT!” The dogs veered off from us and ran the other way. Thank you! 🙏

@CoachYashinsky Is that something shareable? 😁

After over a year of trying to figure this out.... I finally have made a clip splitter that will take All 22 College film and auto split it correctly.

@CFBAnalytical Yes please!

@Agshall37 All blocks treated equally. You want all the research docs?

The "Middle 8" is one of 11 eight minute blocks in a football game. So what happens when we look at 6,674 FBS games over the last decade and see how impactful the middle 8 is vs the other 10 blocks? Might want to read the summary & request the data: matrixanalytical.com/post/the-middl…

@BerryKavon_KB @CoachTuck03 @MrCoachPalmer @jrprude27 @quentin_spiess @CoachStoker_ @coachanthony46 @HightowerFB Berry, you turned that into a bench press my guy! 😂 Still impressive though. Keep up the hard work!

315 on incline. Big man pressure 🏈💪 If it ain’t heavy, it ain’t working. @CoachTuck03 @MrCoachPalmer @jrprude27 @quentin_spiess @CoachStoker_ @coachanthony46 @HightowerFB

@CoachShiffman youtu.be/VlBJdxJuobk?si… No help whatsoever but I thought about this Kevin James bit when thinking of a bunch of big OL coaches getting together to share weight loss secrets 😁 For me, having something to train for helped me- a 5K run, etc

Ok enough is enough. Looking for some help with training/diet and nutrition. Please help this old man stop being stubborn.

@cliniccoachson TikTok generation- players stopped listening midway through the 2nd coach. Sometimes you just gotta save it for another time

“Coaches we’ll have the camera out there today, make sure you get in frame and say a bunch of bullshit. Also Niblett please wear your wife’s yoga pants they look really good on you.”

At least once a game it seemed like I was going up to Jeremy and saying “that was really impressive!” I think as a coach I’m “supposed to” play it cool but @jeremypayne__ is the best RB I’ve ever shared a sideline with! I had to share my appreciation!

@HawkEmDownChris Steve Atwater

Age yourself by naming an NFL safety you grew up watching. I’ll start: Troy Polamalu.

@TheConnorPils Honestly that’s not enough!

Plz like this if you believe this is an acceptable collection of household cups. Trying to prove it to my wife😂

This for all replays in all sports!

I was there…and it was glorious! 🙌

Someone get us the footage of the throwers having a hot dog eating contest on the other end! 🙌

Acie Law That guy rocked.
