You don't raise heroes, you raise sons. And if you treat them like sons, they'll turn out to be heroes, even if it's just in your own eyes.

More schools coming!

Your first DM/email should be 10x shorter than you think it needs to be: " '27 | DE | 6'3 | 220lbs | 3.6 unw GPA | 1470 SAT | All State | #1 Sack Leader | and I'd love to play for you. My tape is pinned to my profile would love your take. Thanks so much."

High school players and parents… here’s the reality of recruiting. College coaches evaluate size first. Height, weight, and frame matter at every level of college football. Start by being honest and set realistic expectations about where you fit. If you meet the size standards, you still have to produce. Big players are everywhere. Coaches recruit the ones who can run, think, compete, and make plays on film. If you don’t meet the size standards, you must bring something extra. Elite speed. High football IQ. Toughness. Playmaking ability. Know where you stand. Set realistic expectations. Then go to work. Learn more: connectedathletics.org Academics. Development.

GJ Kinne is one of the best young coaches in #CFB. At just 37 years old he's already got Texas State Football competing and he has turned the program around. Texas State had won 23 games in the 8 seasons before Kinne and they've won 23 games in 3 seasons with Kinne. Coach Kinne went on to sign the BEST RECRUITING CLASS EVER In Program History in 2026 by AVG Recruit Ranking, bringing in talent this program has never got from the High School ranks. The 2026 class is led by 4 star WR Lakeyleon Graves who's 6'2 185. Graves should make an impact this fall. 3 star WR Xavier Warren should fit well in the Bobcats Offense and 3 star QB Easton Webb should develop into a starter down the road. The future of the Bobcats Football Program looks promising as long as Kinne is Head Coach.
