The Unsigned Combine on March 7th has been cancelled due to anticipated weather! Please keep a lookout for our rescheduled date!

“Be remembered for your work ethic, or forgotten for your comfort..”

It is easy to find out which of your fellow teammates want to do the right things. The things that make everything from life goals, to team goals, to academic goals and football goals more achievable. Surround yourself with those teammates.

If you want something, REALLY ACTUALLY want something...What will stop you? Nothing. But if you do not REALLY ACTUALLY want something...What will stop you? Just about anything

Many of yall “dream chasers” don’t lack the TENACITY. Tenacity hits hard and you feel MOTIVATED…you feel GOOD…you feel in the right state….a lot have tenacity. The great ones, those elite ones, the DREAM ACHIEVERS…they have the CONSISTENCY to go along with that TENACITY

A great opportunity for those who have been missed on!

You have to obsess over catching the football

Kid showed up 10 minutes late to practice last Thursday. Freshman. Third week on the team. Still learning how everything works. I didn't say anything. Just moved the practice forward without him. He jogged up, quiet, and slid into the back of the group. Everyone kept moving. During the cool-down, I saw two of our leaders pull him aside by the fence. Couldn't hear what they said. Didn't need to. Just watched them talk — calm, serious, no raised voices. The kid nodding. Listening. Thursday afternoon, 4:47 PM, my phone buzzes: "Won't happen again, Coach. My bad." I never tell new coaches this is what's possible because they don't believe me. They think you have to enforce everything. Make the call on every situation. Be the one who holds the line. But when your architecture is clear — when everyone understands what the goal demands — the team regulates itself. Those leaders weren't doing me a favor. They were protecting something they built. I don't police alignment. The standard does.
