Don’t tweet much but if you’re a fullback, this is how you block power.. #fullbacks #SanDiegofootball #Toreros

In my 20+ years in high school athletics, this is without question, the toughest time to be a High School Coach. With so many outlets (Select Sports, Skill Coaches, Social Media, etc) there are that many more opinions about how people should do their job. There isn’t a more scrutinized job for less money than what a High School Coach is expected to do and deal with every day. And it’s not going to get any better. They have to manage grades, personalities, fundraising, booster clubs, parents, camps, budgets, and personalities more than most full time jobs do. My advice to all of you, is fight the fight, because it’s worth it! You are the only ones in the arena, not the naysayers in the bleachers.. As I sit in the stands night after night, it’s becoming a sad experience listening just how easy people think these jobs are. At the same time it’s inspiring because it’s makes guys like me want to continue finding ways to give our coaches what they need when they need it. Most of the time, that’s just love and support! I am so damn thankful for our coaches and what they do every single day. I see you in the film room when others are in bed, I talk to you when times are tough and expectations are high, and I see you with your arms around our kids even when the parents are convinced you don’t care. You know who you are, and what you’re about. I remind you to remind yourself to coach for one reason: Love. Love for what you do, love for the kids, love for the process, and love for the lessons. While it’s harder now than ever to realize it, you are changing lives and making the world a better place… Even when others won’t take the time to realize that is what you are doing! One big wall in my office, has a passage on it, and it’s there for a reason. It is posted below…

Very appreciative of @LHSvikingsFB hosting @TheMVPCamps today. Yes that is a high school indoor. We do it differently in Georgia… @On3Recruits @ChadSimmons_ @CarterVikingsFB

Some clips from yesterdays game Lambert vs South Forsyth

@dalbybiehlmusic @dylanbiehl75 Pipes!!!

What a fantastic finish! 7-0 region champions. Just a great group of kids. Won today 56-40 in a bit of a track meet but a wins a win and a championship is a championship. Thank you gentlemen for letting me be a part of your lives. Now, do your homework…. Hook ‘em!!

I’m gonna call these kids the cardiac kids. 6-0 with tonight’s 14-6 win over West Forsyth. Sealed the game off with a pick 6…by my nose guard! Brought a little tear to my eye…#linemenareathletes!

Well deserved recognition! @mtbeach29 @heard_coach @TouchdownHaynes @coachkeels4 @donnel_jeff @Vogel_LambertFB @bowerman10 @BDaughtery54 @LambertStrength @DamarusM @Jsul20

Another great win for the Lambert Freshmen! 34-26 over North Forsyth. Very proud of these young men. Hard workers, competitive and great kids. Time to finish strong! Hook ‘em!

Great win tonight against a bunch of tough Dawson County kids. 28-12. More importantly, everyone got to play. Proud of these boys. Played HARD from the opening kick off.

Unbelievable game. We did not play well. But we played with heart and courage in the 2nd half. Very proud of these kids. Won on a goal line stand in overtime, 20-19. Hats off to Milton’s coaches for agreeing to OT. I’d rather lose than tie. But of course I’d prefer to win…

The Longhorn freshman team did it again. 35 - 14 win over South Forsyth. Great game by a bunch of great kids. Played hard and tough. Couldn’t be more proud! Hook’ ‘em!!!!!!!

Longhorn Frosh take a hard fought win over a scrappy Forsyth Central team 19-12. Got a lot to work on but a win is a win. HOOK’EM!

THE NUGGETS ARE NBA CHAMPIONS FOR THE FIRST TIME IN FRANCHISE HISTORY‼️

@LambertHS GIDDY UP GRILL!!!

Welcome to the Longhorn Family, Hailey Guerrasio! We are so glad to have you on our team. 🤘
