As an educator I am so sick of hearing NM is last in education!! The teachers I work with are working the tails off.
What we need to be asking is where we rank in parenting??
It’s really hard to overcome what happens at home 23 hours of the day in one hour at school.
New Mexico coaches work 60 hour weeks!! They miss their kids games!! They get paid nothing!! And then the
@_NMAA
charges there families to watch playoff games. It’s great dropping 30 bucks so your family can watch your team. RIDICULOUS 🤦♂️
Really
@koat7news
with all the things going on with our kids. Kids are off the streets, off there phones, working out and tryin to get better and this is the story u run. Ridiculous 🤦♂️
Coaches in NM need a raise!!!Roswell coaches haven’t received a raise in at least 18 years.
1. Paperwork for 141 athletes is a full time job
2. The education requirements to coach have gone from 0 to I just spent 6 hours doing continuing Ed.
Coaches are taken advantage of!!
Teen suicide & gun violence are up. Teens are struggling with mental health. Add one more thing. TEENS ARE STRUGGLING IN THE CLASSROOM!! 123 kids in our football program. Only 37 don’t have an F!! We need to wake up to the real pandemic.
AD’s complaining about NM starting powerlifting. REALLY!! If your a AD complaining about offering more kids opportunities 2 compete, you need 2 do something else. Get 2 work & raise the money!! Kids need every chance they can get 2 get off their phone & the couch & compete!!
Last year
@NMStateFootball
had a coach who wouldn’t even wear NMSU’s logo. This year they win a bowl game!!
@JerryKill30
should be the National Coach of the Year
JB White isnt the only 1. article below highlights 3 more deaths. We have lost 2 young men n Roswell. This shut down hasnt been good.Our kids need school & activities. They need to be involved. If not they will find something to do. Idle hands are the devils playground!!RIP ALL
THE WEIGHT ROOM IS SO GOOD FOR KIDS!!
You have a kid that is a little depressed, maybe a little anxious, man have them lift hard for 6 weeks and watch them change!! They feel better, look better and their confidence explodes!! Seen it over and over!!!
Got a Whataburger yesterday!! 4 kids I teach or coach were working. It’s to dangerous for these kids to go to school but not to dangerous for them to go to work in fast food!! I could make a strong argument they are much safer at school. 🤦♂️
When my kids r not in-season three things happen: 1. Attendence goes down 2. Grades go down 3. Displine issues rise. I get we r trying 2 flatten the curve but there will b collateral damage. IDLE HANDS ARE THE DEVILS PLAYGROUND!!!
@NMHSCA
@Coach_Ridenour
Interesting watching NM High School linemen work 1 on 1’s with no helmet or shoulder pads. Then going to other states & watching the same drill with a helmet & shoulder pads. Kids in other states are safer. This is an example of when admin. & the
@_NMAA
need to listen to coaches
Appreciate
@UNK_Football
&
@CoachJoshLynn
for committing to attend the
@NMHSCA
all star football games in Roswell. Great opportunity for the Lopers to recruit New Mexico in 1 weekend!!! Small School Game 12:00 & the Big School Game right after on Saturday.
People get hired for Job Skills, People get fired for Behavior Skills!!
Good Coaches and Great Teams have great behavior skills!!! Something that made me think!!! Another Great Presetation at the NMHSCA Clinic
@NMHSCA
@TBrianKight
We knew this day would come. Goddard got a great man of outstanding character to lead there program. Coach was with me from day 1. He believed in the vision when a bunch of others didn’t. Externally grateful for our 12 years Wouldn’t have it any other way. Love you Coach!!!
@CoachBolanos
We sincerely appreciate all the work & sacrifices you made to build our program. We wish you the best in your new gig across town. We look forward to watch you build that program & look forward to competing against your guys.
ETERNALLY GRATEFUL
12 YEARS
#TEAM
I appreciate the action that the
@_NMAA
board took this morning The fact that
@mlg
&
@NMPED
can’t communicate their expectations. It’s shocking listening 2 leaders of r schools say they haven’t received guidance from the leaders of NM. playing politics with kids. Shameful 🤦♂️
There is an interesting tug of war going on in schools right now.
Administration & Counselors who are trying there hardest to get kids graduated & Teachers who are trying to maintain some sort of academic integrity.
This is creating an interesting environment.
What does your AAU or Club Coach do to be a better coach. If there taking your money shouldn’t they be improving!!
Your High School Coach got better this week by attending the
@NMHSCA
Coaching Clinic!!
🚨EDUCATORS🚨 BLUE CROSS/BLUE SHEILD raises our premiums, co-pays and deductibles every year but when it’s their turn to pay its a different story. We need to wake up.
@coachjfort
do me a favor and retweet this.
This one is going to be good!!!
@osoukup
Assistant Head Coach/LB’s and New Mexico Recruiter is speaking on “LB play in an even and odd front”. Can’t remember the last time we had
@NMStateFootball
at the
@NMHSCA
summer clinic!!!! 🔥🧨💥 💯
ME:why aren’t u at school?? STUDENT: My mom doesn’t want me to come it’s not safe. ME: I saw U working last night. STUDENT: yeah I know she is fine with me going to work. 🤦♂️
I AM SO PROUD OF
@CoyotesRising
!!! We have 110 kids showing up very day!! 6:00 in the morning. Dates have been pushed back, they have been led on and had to shut down and start back up. Would have been so easy to quit but they keep coming back for more.
#WinnerWin
THANK YOU Buster Mabrey for the work he put into the
@NMHSCA
All-Star Games. Volleyball, Cross County, Soccer & Football Senior-Athletes from all across NM got one more chance to complete because of his hard work.
1st Class Events.
Big Thanks Brother!!!
Pretty Cool seeing Nebraska, South Carolina and Arizona putting teachers at the front of the line just behind healthcare workers to get the vaccine!! It’s really nice important to get these kids back in school.
Lopers stun No. 7 Northwest Missouri for program's first win over top-10 opponent - Read about one of
@UNK_Football
's biggest wins in program history here:
If school district is staying virtual you need ask the question. Are they following “the science” or are the decision makers just taking the path of least resistance???
Never gotten a “thank you note” from a college coach much less 8 at once!!
@HiattENMU
and
@ENMUFootball
doing things right!! Building relationships with in-state coaches. It will pay off!!
Now I know what it feels like to be a 5 star recruit going to a power 5 school!! 😂
@NMHSCA
All-STAR Football game DECEMBER 4th in Roswell, NM. SMALL SCHOOL GAME AT 11:00, BIG SCHOOL GAME 2:00. Received a commitment from
@HiattENMU
and
@ENMUFootball
they will be at the game looking to recruit New Mexico Kids!!!! 🔥 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Fired up watching
@UNMLoboFB
last night!! Those coaches got’em playing hard and physical. Looked a lot like the Lobo Football we enjoyed in the late 90’s and 2000’s.
Watched
@UNK_Football
scrimmage Reminds me a lot of old school 90’s cornhusker football. Athletic as crap @ QB. Big Phyiscal OL’s & DL’s. Options offense. Nasty linebackers & safeties. Running backs & WR’s that will block. Get me fired up!!!
@CoachJoshLynn
THIS PISSES ME OFF!!!
@ABQschools
needs to do better!!!
Study after study shows kids who are involved sports are less likely to do drugs, less likely to get in trouble and make better grades.
TAKE CARE OF YOUR COACHES.
Middle and high school coaches in New Mexico don't do the job for the money. However, many of them in Albuquerque are not getting paid nearly as much as their colleagues in other school districts.
McDonald’s & Burger King don’t ever get together share ideas!!
800 coaches got together this weekend @ the
@NMHSCA
Winter Clinic We shared ideas
& talked about how we can be better for the kids we coach.
DOES NOT happen in any other profession!!
PROUD TO BE A COACH!!
RHS Football has worked out 115 kids,4 days a week since Labor Day.Have worn masks, checked temperatures & followed the protocols.Had 1 positive test, we shut that pod down & had no additional spread!! We r professionals, don’t need 2 be babysat.
@JamesDYodice
appreciate u man
Appreciate
@nmpreps
for committing to attend the
@NMHSCA
All-Star Football Games. The exposure our kids are getting is going through this event is going to lead to more scholarship opportunities!!!! The Fun starts Saturday @ 12:00!!!

@NMHSCA
Unfortunately the Coyotes weren’t picked to go play, regardless it’s AWESOME seeing these teams play
@UNMLoboFB
Univeristy Stadium!!!!! Really a credit to
@CoachGonzUNM
and the way he values the in-state kid!!! This effort will pay dividends!!!
3 coaches in the last week said there school are considering not paying them there increments this year. 4 most coaches this makes up 5%-20% of there pay. If ur going to do this make sure the central office takes that same pay cut. Lead by example!!!
@NMHSCA
APS needs to be split up into 3 districts. Introduce competition. These school districts would be forced to compete with one another. Would be great for the kids. Right now APS IS great for administrators, politicians and red tape.
The
@NMPED
and
@GovMLG
have created a system that encourages kids to NOT come to school!! If a kid wants to walk at graduation, go to prom or be involved in activities they have to stay home!!
School districts make it clear that teachers can be held liable 4 not reporting child abuse. With that said I find it HYPOCRITICAL the districts who have censored there teachers 4 talking about the effect of r state’s policies & the negative effects they r having on r students.
@HiattENMU
of
@ENMUFootball
was practice today for the
@NMHSCA
All-Star Football games and gave us a little insight into why this is such a good time of year to have an all-star football game!!!
Freshman “COACH SOMEONE STOLE MY PADS!!!!”
Me “is that ur hemet and shoulder pads??”
Freshman “Yes sir”
Me “no one stole ur pads, the janitor picked them up because u didn’t put them in ur locker. Now give me 60 push-ups” 🤦♂️
Both my boys had basketball games this morning and couldn’t watch either!! My 8th grader had a golf tournament had to wear a mask. I watched a kid run the 2 mile with a mask on. THIS IS DUMB!!! 🤦♂️
6 hours to find games in Texas when there are 20 plus schools within an hour. This is taking kids out of class & costing a bunch of money. Theresult of
@_NMAA
seeding criteria that rewards schools for wins doesn’t take into account who people are playing.
I will be attending the
@NMHSCA
Winter Football Clinic on January 1/27 & 1/28!!!!
Invite a Yafl coach or a Junior high coach!!!
As coaches we got to get better!!!
I keep hearing people say “
@GovMLG
won’t listen, won’t change and won’t do what’s best for kids”. I was reminded this morning of what I preach to my team!!! Teachers, Coaches, & Administrators DON’T GET DISCOURAGED & KEEP FIGHTING!!!
Winning Football Games in the Fall requires Winning in the Off-Season.
