@StinnToWin Congrats, Coach.

Handed out our summer schedule for 2026. Here’s what in it: 7 Practices 75 Minutes/Practice June: 3 July: 4 4 Scrimmages June: 1 July: 3 Lift Schedule Tues: Sprint/Squat Wed: COD/Bench Thur: Sprint/Clean 90 Mins/Day All Fridays: OFF All Saturdays: OFF (Minus 1 in June for Colts 11on11) All Mondays: OFF (Last 5 Mondays of summer are moratorium days) ✅Guaranteed 4 day weekend for kids to have a summer ➡️Days with practice, kids are here from 3:30pm-6:30pm ➡️Days without practice, kids are here from 8:30am-10:00am ➡️Scrimmages all kids get reps, our younger players tend to get more than varsity returners for development Multiple kids have already come up to let me know they won’t be at certain days for other things. My response: “Thanks for letting me know, reminder though summer is not mandatory and don’t let a coach tell you it is, it’s here to benefit the program. Show up when you can.” ‼️Reminder: NO PART OF THE SUMMER IS A SPECIFIC SPORTS MONTH AND NO PART OF SUMMER IS MANDATORY. The more you do is not better. Less is a better approach. Be fast and be efficient. Be mindful of the kids time because they just spent 182 days at the school. Since moving to this type of summer: Our program is 37-12. Yes we’ve had some great talent come through, but our players are happy and healthy through the seasons and buy into our process of why we do what we do. For our football program, we do not touch a football from our last snap of the season until summer time. Strictly weight room/Sprint emphasis. ✅Happy & healthy kids in your program = RESULTS.

Tis the season! Happy Madness.

Excited to be speaking at the MT Tech Football Coaches Clinic. Going to be a great weekend to learn, grow, and connect!

The Parent Poison… Most parents want the best for their kids. But sometimes, without realizing it, they slowly poison the very team their child is part of. It rarely starts with something dramatic. It starts small. A comment in the car ride home. “Why didn’t the coach play you more?” A comparison. “You’re better than that kid.” A quiet complaint at the dinner table. “That coach doesn’t know what he’s doing.” Kids hear everything. And when they hear it, something changes. Doubt creeps in. Blame grows. Trust fades. The mindset shifts from team first to me first. What begins in the living room eventually shows up in the locker room. You see it in body language. You hear it in conversations. You feel it in the culture. Instead of unity, there are whispers. Instead of accountability, there are excuses. Instead of growth, there is resentment. Great teams cannot survive that environment. Because the best teams are built on three things: Trust. Sacrifice. Shared purpose. When players start believing the problem is everyone else, those things disappear. Parents play a powerful role in a team’s culture whether they realize it or not. The healthiest teams have parents who: Support the program. Encourage resilience. Teach their kids to handle adversity. They remind their children: Work harder. Be a great teammate. Control what you can control. They don’t feed excuses. They build character. And here’s the truth most people miss: A parent’s influence extends far beyond their own child. It affects the locker room. It affects the culture. It affects the entire team. Great teams require unity, not whispers of criticism. So the challenge for parents is simple. Be the adult in the room. Guard your words. Model respect. Support the team. Because what starts at home always finds its way onto the court, the field, or the locker room. And the best parents don’t poison the culture. They protect it.

Somewhere in football heaven…. Madden, Leach & Holtz are putting on one heck of a show. 🙏🏻

Mom teaching her son how to block is everything ❤️

Sports, man.

MIKE TIRICO’S ALL-TIME GREAT OLYMPICS SIGN-OFF: “All the young people out there, those dreams are formed now. Go chase them, our country loves sports, it brings us together unlike anything else. And if you didn’t know that: you saw it in Team USA Hockey”

What a photo. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

This sign should be put up at all competitive sports events for children.

@AlwaysCFB @CodyVincent @davidpollack47 Since edge rushers started becoming such large, not only strong, but freakishly fast humans that speed has to be matched. And the big strong lineman that aren’t athletic aren’t the answer.

@AlwaysCFB @CodyVincent @davidpollack47 It’s adaptation. I get what DP is saying, but I don’t think it’s about “toughness.” These guys are being asked to go backwards 50-60% of the offensive plays to protect the pass. From the time they’re playing meaningful football (mid-late high school) and on.

"I don't see them moving people... offensive line play is as soft as I've seen in college football." @davidpollack47 pulling no punches talking about current OL play in CFB 👀

This is awesome. Clemson baseball has a tradition of players going up in the stands during the 4th inning to shake hands with Veterans. Today, on opening day, the Army baseball team joined in with them @ClemsonBaseball 🤝 @ArmyWP_Baseball

We’ve all been guilty of this one. Have always heard Tomlin is one of the best coaches of coaches!

Join Moose in Billings on May 16th for a great cause!
