One of my biggest pet peeves about education is fellow educators that smirk when you tell them you're a football coach. I teach my subject well AND teach boys how to be good men. I spend 14-16 hours a day making sure ALL facets of my job are done right in class and on the field.

HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS:Your four years of high school will fly by. Play that sport, join that club, take that class, go on that mission trip, go to that dance. When it's over, it's over. You'll have the rest of your life for work and bills.

FOOTBALL PLAYERS: If you're not putting in work in June and July, don't expect things to go your way in August! Yeah, summer break is cool and all, but you'll have the rest of your life to not play football.

A football dad invited me out for coffee this afternoon. I was on the coaching staff of both his boys teams. He said, "I just wanted to express our gratitude for your help in helping our boys become men and thank you for your sacrifices." Those words will be forever treasured!!!.

I'll never understand why kids forego high school athletics and activities to work. I'm not talking kids that HAVE TO work to keep the bills paid, rather kids who choose to work. High school goes by quickly. You'll have the next 50 years to work. Enjoy it!!!.

I'll preface this by saying I'm old. But we football coaches need to steal our culture back from the 7v7 crowd. You want to sing, dance, scream,chant, cheer, etc? Take it to the locker room, not the fifty yard line. Bring back respect and decency to our great game.

Coaches that started coaching in the Hudl Age missed out on bye week scouting trips. It always felt like espionage, especially in a small town. Don't wear school related gear. Maybe wear a college polo to justify your furious note-taking. Make small talk with the locals, etc.

HC's: find assistants that put championship game effort into equipment check in. It's easy to find guys that want to be on the sidelines during games.

I'm a pretty conservative fella, but explain to me why EVERY child in America doesn't eat school lunch for free years round? Even summers. It's never a kids fault that their parents aren't providing at least two meals a day at home. Rich kids, poor kids. Doesn't matter. Feed em!.

I'm pro "coaches working in schools" not because they somehow make a team better. They make the ENTIRE SCHOOL better! Coaches can coach no matter what job they do from 7-3. SCHOOL culture benefits from their presence on campus from 7-3. Just watch a Texas HS pep rally.

COACHES: We often live a double standard life. We expect kids to do what is necessary to improve. But are we reading, studying, learning, growing, investing in ourselves to be better than we were last season? Kids can tell genuine from authentic!.

COACHING PROBLEM: I CANNOT figure out how to relate to kids today. SOLUTION: Go to their play, track meet, baseball game, basketball game, ask them about their grades, ask how classes are going, seen a good movie, read a book, how Grandma is doing, etc.

What if American high schools did "cultural exchanges" within the country? For example take a kid from rural America and let them experience an urban setting and vice versa. Would that help us gain more understanding of each other?.

As a young boy, I wasn't afraid of going to the principal's office, I was afraid of Dad finding out. As a young man, I wasn't afraid of the police, I was afraid of Dad finding out I'd done something stupid. I wasn't abused, I was disciplined! We need that more today than ever!.

I wish the "real world" operated like the coaching community does. "Need help?" ."Here you go." . "Let me know if you need anything else!" .Race. Religion. Location. Political persuasion. Socio-economic status. School size. None of these matter to this fraternity.

If you run ZERO offensive plays in the second half, score 14 points and win by 8, you might coach Middle School football. .

If you say, "Man, I could NEVER coach Junior High kids" you shouldn't be coaching ABOVE the Junior High level. Entry level players make coaches better! Can't be a one trick pony coach.

It's hard for me to believe that it's 2020 and we still have coaches telling kids to stay outta the weight room because it'll mess up their shot, swing, stroke, etc. Don't we all want stronger, faster, more confident ATHLETES?!? But yet. .

Any schools out there REQUIRE students to ride the bus home from away games? The bus is a great place to build a dynamic team culture if coaches choose to be intentional with that time.

As a junior high football coach, one of the most gratifying parts of the job is seeing a kid who is unsure and lacking confidence come to the realization that he can do so much more than he ever thought he could. That affirmation often carries over into the rest of his life.

After two weeks of online school I can say with confidence that it is NOT the future of education! The feedback I'm getting from 8 out of 10 students is they absolutely cannot wait to get back in the classroom. It's necessary now, but it's not for everyone.

Unpopular opinion: if you have to create animosity towards your opponent with mean mugging, trash talk, and attempts to belittle the opposition you aren't a competitor. Competitors have an internal fire that is stoked by the challenge to get better regardless of who they face.

Smartest kid in school showed up for S&C last night. He's never played a sport. Busted his tail and began hyperventilating during a tough team challenge. I was concerned. He said between breaths, "This is the toughest thing I've ever done. I needed this." I need him on my team!.
