Ain’t no faking in football!! If you haven’t prepared, if you aren’t tough, skipped the weight room, skipped meals, didn’t hydrate, and if you don’t care... it will always show!! Everything matters.
Imagine having 260 yards and 4 TDs in the district championship then having the humility to sweep the locker room. The way you do anything is the way you do everything.

Don’t just dance and celebrate like em. Don’t just try to play football like em. Do the off the field work too. They don’t just play football.

Want to see what the guy that leads us in touchdowns (

Thank you to the teacher that snapped this photo after he asked if he could help.

This is my DB coach
@CoachDeeMitch
! He rang the bell after his final round of Chemotherapy yesterday at 2 pm. He was in our pre game meal prayer circle at 3 pm. How could you not fight with the examples we have in our program? Love you bro. I told you I had a gift for you!
We made school history tonight. First win Vs a class 6 program.
1967 students vs 360. Shout out to our boys and our student section. Culture wins. It’s different over here.

All the short cuts, missed workouts, not running track when recommended, refusing to watch film on your own, being tardy to class and below average grades will throat punch you when recruitment comes. Young guys, listen to your coaches.
Respect to the referees in Missouri. Some of these men reffed 2-3 games in the heat and rain this weekend. During a ref shortage y’all better show them love and be grateful for every one of them. They make this thing go and often go unnoticed unless it’s negativity.
Thank you!
9 guys from the St. Louis area will be in NFL camps from the 2022 draft class. Amazing. We are a top 10 state for NFL talent. It’s time we allow real Spring football.
You can ruin a kid’s life not holding them accountable to a standard because they’re talented or you don’t have a replacement that makes you feel like you’ll win. They’ll appreciate you more when they become successful adults that don’t fold under the pressures of life. 💯
Watch any pick up game or 7 on 7 today. Kid makes a great play, that kid and the rest of his teammates immediately focus on taunting the kid the play was made on. Taunting the opponent is more important than celebrating their teammate. We have to change that as adults coaching.
Cool. Play us in football again without asking for a 35 point scoring limit. Blow us out in soccer and basketball then refuse to play football while we are in the same conference. 🤦🏾♂️
Varsity boys 🏀 travels to Lutheran North and comes way with a 70-40 victory. Trevor Reed led the way offensively with 16 points and one blown out Nike shoe 😳 while Anand Dharmarajan knocked down 15 on the night. Bombers back at it Thursday at home vs Prin.

My kids know that I better not ever walk into a dirty locker room! No custodian should ever have to clean up after my team. If you have 40-60 guys that walk past the same mess without cleaning it up, you’ll never win anything of significance with them.

If you think you’re missing football practice for your cousin birthday, Lutheran North is not for you. I can recommend some schools. Keep working.

Theres 1 basketball player in Missouri playing for a HS with a Full ride D1 scholarship in the 2024 class. Hes attending Lindenwood.
Run track…. Play football. Be realistic.
Before all of the arguing over rankings and opinions of who is going to win Friday night comes out, realize it will all be sorted out at 7 pm Friday night. Disagree with an opinion? Practice/prepare like you’re the

I love you bro.

Parents and players, start doing your homework on FCS and D2 schools. Thats the new D1 for non elite players. D1 schools are not recruiting as many HS players no more. If you’re good enough you’ll end up where you’re supposed to be in a year or two.
It’s Friday and a 3 day weekend. These guys decide to go clean the weight room.
We talk about “sweeping the shed” often.… leaving things better than you found it. Not leaving a mess for the next man to clean up. Year 3 looks like this. The culture is set. Proud of my guys.
Fell short. 18-20. We have to get in the weight room. Keep working. Thank you to the 2022 class for giving it everything you had. So much growth throughout the season.
#DifferentBreed
Stl football... get in the weight room, start watching film legitimately, and start focusing when these coaches are speaking. Coaches, learn from your losses and work on your craft. We have to do better period. 2018 Stl vs everybody. Let’s go to work.
It never fails. Karvon Jefferson is always the first guy out at practice. I know somebody who is different when I see em. You can say you want to be great but when you show me, I’ll go to any lengths for you.

#DifferentBreed
Young head coaches, hold individual meetings with every kid/parent(s) in your program. Tell them expectations, their expected role, info on college recruiting, and goal set.
This will erase 90% of the problems you experience with parents. The other 10% will never be happy.
What a game! 5401 was rocking! See you next week!! Final 4. My young boys went crazy tonight. 6, 21, 3, and 7 a problem! Dakarri Hollis is one of the best players in 2025.
Carry the cross.
#DifferentBreed
This is why your character is important. You can lose everything in one moment. Even if you are talented enough to go to Bama or play in the NFL. If you are a poor decision maker, you’ll lose it all. Prayers for this young man and the victim’s family. Sad on all fronts.

Been blessed. I’ve coached in 2 semifinals as Defensive coordinator and now 2 as an Offensive coordinator. Looking to make my 3rd trip to state and 1st as Head coach in year 3. God is so good. Highly favored.

Woke up to my players organizing their own zoom schedules to watch film. It wasn’t demanded of them or forced. They decided to do more and be more. If you know teenagers today then you’d understand that we are already winning behind the scenes.

We have to get better. Blair Oaks is a class program. We have to finish but my guys are locked in. No time to hang our heads with Francis Howell coming next week. We have to put 2 halves together. Keep working.
#DifferentBreed
Winning is a process. It takes time, healthy confrontation, and constant tweaking. It’s a humbling process and everyone has to buy in. You see all the small victories but must continue to address the short comings. Winning is not comfortable or easy, but it’s worth it.
I need a legit Defensive Line coach! Has to know the position, value relationship based coaching, and be open to thinking outside the box. We work. I need somebody with a flexible schedule.

You cannot play college football without As, Bs, and occasional C’s at the lowest (C’a hurt you). 2.3 GPA in core classes to play division 1. 2.2 GPA minimum to play Division 2.
If your measurable’s aren’t off the charts, the higher your gpa and play in big games better be.
If you hating on a champion that came from a poor single parent home, brought his guys with him to the top, stayed out of trouble, and gave back like no other to the culture, on top of exceeding the highest expectations ever placed on a teenage kid... you are a goofy. That’s all.
It’s officially football season!! Year 12. I’m blessed to be in position to impact others. Excited about this group. They can go as far as they want to go. Special talent, special leaders. Can’t wait to see them once those lights come on! Keep working.
Yesterday was a good day. 6 signed with a couple more to go. Proud of the growth of these guys. They went from boys to men before our eyes. Can’t wait to see what the future holds for them. Going to miss them.

Not bad for a few football guys. 4x100 and 4x200 State champs. They’re not done yet.

Kids earn offers, not coaches. We connect, advocate, etc. Don’t take credit away from the God given talent and hard work of a player. Some players would earn their offers from the moon. 💯

RIP 7. Hurting today. Heartbroken. He represented everything Lutheran North football is about. We will honor his memory going forward. His smile could light up a stadium on a Friday night. He lived E+R=O.

This is the definition of redemption.
Nick Lotts made an error on a punt return but more than made up for it by picking off a pass on the very next play... He didn't cry or feel sorry for himself, but carries on & was locked in. That's what a winner does.

If you’re an OC or former OC you’ve sat and listened to hours of Mike Leach at some point. He certainly impacted my life and career. I’ve even won a few because of his concepts. His humor and ability to just be himself was something that I always valued. RIP coach.

February 2nd-4th in Kansas City. I will be presenting on Gun Wing T offense. Our system set a school record of 5,762 total yards while averaging 47.4 points per game. Come learn how to combine “old” with the “new”!!
The most impressive part of this Bama team is their discipline. Guys shoving them after plays etc... they never react to it or acknowledge the other guys existence. They’re just playing to a standard.
