Head Football Coach at York University
Canada
Joined January 2011
Proud of the progress we’ve made out of the bye week! Secured the program’s first win over McMaster since 1997, and earned back to back Red Blue Bowl victories for the first time since 2018–19. Grateful to be part of a group that plays with such heart and resilience. Back to work

Coaches have “favorites.” But it’s not politics: it’s trust, effort, and impact. Be the player who can be trusted, makes the right plays, works hard, stays committed, and lifts the team. Talent matters, but trust + commitment = playing time.

Coachability Matters. 1. Average players resist coaching - they always have an excuse. 2. Good players accept coaching and do what’s asked. 3. Great players crave coaching - they’re driven to improve. Which one are you? Are you coachable?

Andy Reid said it best, “Respecting people is an important part of life, whether it's the person doing janitorial work or the person above you. It doesn't matter who you are: I'm going to respect you.” Respect isn’t just given—it’s earned. It is the foundation of leadership.
