62% of D2 football players that entered the transfer portal have retired. 79% of D3 athletes. 🤯 The grass isn’t always greener on the other side.

The H back position has evolved into one of the most valuable and versatile roles in modern football because it allows offenses to stay multiple without substituting personnel What started in the early 1980s as an extra blocker in Joe Gibbs’ offense has now become a true positionless weapon that stresses defenses both mentally and physically From a scouting perspective, the H back is one of the hardest offensive positions to evaluate because the player must be able to impact the game in several different ways Coaches and scouts are evaluating football intelligence, toughness, movement skills, blocking ability, route running, versatility, and overall functional athleticism all at once The best H backs can align all over the formation, process defensive structure quickly, and execute assignments at a high level in both the run and pass game College and NFL coaches value H backs because they create matchup problems while helping disguise offensive intent. The position requires players who can: • Move across the formation pre snap • Execute split zone and wham blocks • Protect the quarterback in pass protection • Run routes from the slot, wing, or backfield • Create leverage angles in the run game • Contribute on special teams • Adjust quickly to defensive movement and fronts Key traits scouts and coaches look for: • Football IQ and processing speed • Positional versatility and alignment flexibility • Ability to block in space and seal edges • Short area quickness and body control • Toughness at the point of attack • Reliable hands and route running ability • Understanding of leverage and blocking angles • Ability to handle motion and adjustment responsibilities • Special teams value • Competitive toughness and consistency

“I think good coaches can coach X’s & O’s, and there’s a lot of really good coaches. I think great coaches can coach the hearts and minds of their players and capture that. I think elite coaches can do both.” - Rhett Lashlee

Nailed it. No coach is immune to this. Karen beware, I won’t hold back and play nice. Maybe you should have applied for the job when I did. I’m done listening and tolerating this nonsense from people that never played the game or was nothing but a “JV Johnny.” I said what I said.

Your money. Your job. Your retirement account. They all just got affected by what happened on a runway in Beijing this morning. Trump stepped off Air Force One in China — with Elon Musk walking right behind him. 300 students waving American and Chinese flags. Gifts presented on the tarmac. A red-carpet arrival ceremony. This is the FIRST presidential visit to China in nearly 10 years — the last time was Trump himself, in 2017. Here's why this hits YOUR wallet directly: → The US and China are the two largest economies on Earth → Every tariff, every trade barrier between them flows through to your grocery bill, your mortgage rate, your 401k → A warm Beijing welcome after years of trade war is not a photo op — it's a signal to every market on Earth → Musk didn't fly to Beijing for the scenery — he flew because deals are on the table → 17 CEOs made this trip. Tim Cook. Jensen Huang. That's not a delegation. That's a negotiation. The last time a US president landed in China with this kind of reception, the S&P rallied. The last time US-China relations went cold, supply chains broke, inflation spiked, and your paycheck bought less. This visit is either the beginning of something that puts money back in your pocket — or the calm before the next storm. Pay attention. This is not a foreign policy story. This is a personal finance story. Turn on notifications. I'll keep you updated as this unfolds.

"Modern Football in the NFL is Quarterback driven. You can look at the analytics... QB Success is a higher predictor of winning and losing than Turnover Ratio." - Ben Johnson

I will not lower the standard for your son. I will not play players who do not do what they have been coached to do. It will not get easier, your son will get tougher. & Yes i do have favorites, my favorites are the players who do what I ask them to do. #EFFORT
