Congrats!

#1! Don't reshare someone LEAVING your program. You're giving social proof that people are leaving & that you SUPPORT the exodus of YOUR program. INSTEAD, retweet/post the things YOUR coaches do. Reinforce the things that add a net (+) to your program.

Grateful to be named 1st Team All-State along with @ButtramCharlie! @Coach_Gregg3 @trlong02 @HallTechSports1 @Will_Batson

D1 ready Kicker!

Great kicking session with top Alabama High School football prospect Charlie Bottoms @Charlie_Bottoms @Coach_Gregg3 @trlong02 youtube.com/watch?v=mVf9Ri…

Not many bright spots in our 1st-round loss, but @Charlie_Bottoms drilling a school-record 57-yard FG was special. A 32 ACT, elite talent, and the hardest-working kid I’ve ever been around. How this young man only has one offer is unreal.

Add a 57 yarder for @Charlie_Bottoms, @HallTechSports1 @TimesDaily. Excellent finish to a great High School career!

@FentressKicking Coach King was my coach at UNA and helped me on my journey to the NFL. He has quite a few great quotes on this!

From my Coach in Alabama back in High School Mike King: 🧠The Mental Game of Kicking Kickers are on the field for less than 25 seconds per game, yet their entire job comes down to a skill performed in under 2 seconds. Some games give them 5–7 chances, others only one or two. That scarcity makes the mental side of kicking unique—and critical. To perform, kickers must remain calm in a sport built on chaos, contact, and noise. The best approach is emotional neutrality: no big reactions after a make, and no visible frustration after a miss. This isn’t about being robotic—it’s about conserving mental energy and staying ready for the next opportunity. A useful comparison is the military sniper: isolated, patient, and able to control heart rate for a single, decisive action. Kickers face the same demand—total composure in moments that decide outcomes. The great ones separate themselves not by never missing, but by making the next kick after a miss. Emotional swings—too high after a make or too low after a miss—drain focus and consistency. Teammates, coaches, and fans will celebrate or agonize, but the kicker’s job is to reset. In the end, it’s consistency, not occasional brilliance, that defines greatness. As the saying goes: “It is far better to be consistently good than occasionally great.” —Mike King #FentressKicking

Great job, Charlie Buckets! Any college looking for a grinder with the mental game in check and tremendous physical upside should take notice.

Great work @Charlie_Bottoms!!!

Alabama needs to get with the program and separate public and private high schools when it comes to athletic divisions/playoffs. Current format is inefficient and a complete disservice to high school athletes who may not have the means to attend certain schools! @AHSAA_football

@Charlie_Bottoms Will definitely set new records for @Brooks_LionsFB

The UNA lion exhibit should’ve/could’ve been built into the new stadium. ✔️ Additional funding sources ✔️ New habitat up to spec ✔️ Additional attraction for games

A reporter asked Todd Bowles if the Bucs were prepared to play in the frigid Detroit weather. “You do know we play indoors, right?”

@ColinAllredTX we need more real men and former athletes running for office in our country. Coming from someone who was shot at in the Congressional Baseball shooting, I’ll take a former professional athlete over someone who lacks the understanding of empathy any day. Real men build relationships and bring out the best in their brothers. They don’t stare and act awkward in a sports situation. They also keep receipts and god bless!
