It’s crazy seeing kids who’ve never played a snap of varsity football say they have offers w/o talking to a coach nor setting foot on a campus. Parents if you haven’t talked to the coaches don’t allow this to go on. Your child’s time will come. This trend has to come to an end.

@WigginNathaniel
wasn’t the
#1
CB in Ga when he came out. I said he was and the other 2 are nonexistent. 1 of them just played for the first time this year and the other is in the transfer portal. Now Nate is a projected top 15 pick. So you do the math.
If you’re not a top 5 at your position (the top 5 programs) in the country aren’t the spot for you. Go to where they love you. I was top 15 at my position (11) to be exact and I went a Clemson program that was under achieving bc I knew I could play. Do better players and parents
Anyway, here’s Justin Miller (
@TWithJay
) becoming the only player in Clemson history to return two kickoffs for touchdowns in the same game back in 2004.
DB coaches, Are we teaching our DB’s the purpose of speed turning vs open cutting when it comes to transitioning out of breaks? Why are we using both? Also are you telling them at what point their cushion is broken & this means open up? If not we’re doing them a disservice.
If all you know how to do is quick jam as a DB you’re in trouble. Be able to feather/motor/shadow a Wr.
Stay Square & High For 5 yds. Make the Wr commit then shoot your hand.
Drill: Simulate WR running a slant

#TipsFromAProNotAJoe
Athletes know you’re the brand. You’re a walking billboard. If you got to take the “Hardaway” take it. Promote yourself. Don’t build up anyone else.
And parents you don’t need anyone to promote your kid. Coaches know who can & can’t play.
#SayingWhatsRealSaturdays
This is what happens when multiple coaches & players come together to get good competitive work without any coach thinking they’re bigger then the kids.

This Lab 🔬 thing hits different. In the last 2 years alone there’s 35+ young men at colleges across the country. Can’t say it enough but I’m proud of y’all boys. Now this is that real content! Max love in a Lab 🔬Way.
Married to the game. Perfect your craft. Compete daily with your self. Being a DB is a mindset. I was always that kid that hated to lose. I figured out the way to win is get better at everything. Understanding your weakness sharpens your strengths.
#TheLabJustMakesYouDifferent
Why do T-Step vs Bicycle? Why & When do you use press bail technique? How you come out of your breaks? Do you speed turn? Do you open cut? Are staying square at LOS? Are you kick sliding 45?
This is why we’re different. We teach first.

DB coaches what is your curriculum for developing a young DB? Do you have one? Do you explain your process to the parents? What’s your teaching style? Can you adjust mid session to cater to your athletes needs if you see something isn’t working or do you force it?

THE LAB 🔬: Drill = Pattern Matching
Below: 1st video DB bails, speed turns & changes direction to match Out & Up. 2nd video DB matches moving WR. Goal is to eliminate space btw the two. Make the window for completion as small as possible
#LabBros
#TheLabJustMakesYouDifferent
As I teach I’m focused on the little things. Angles, alignment, eyes & footwork. Whenever you’re tired you revert back to what’s normal & your technique should always be your normal.

Clemson Single Season tied for
#1
with 8 interceptions. And
#6th
in a career with 13. Guess they got the hint after 8 as a freshman. Safe to say I know how to find the ball 🏈
In short the DB should stay down the middle of the WR. Coaching points below. DBs even the good ones have lapses. The goal is eliminate them by playing sound technique.
In BAIL tech there is a fine line when trying to stack the WR
Too far inside & you are blind (see below)
Too far outside & you can give up the Post
DB has to work to the midpoint to inhibit a free release, but also for the ability to lean (Fade) or drive inside (Post)
#ArtofX
DBs understand the importance of knowing how to do & apply different techniques. Understand why to T-Step & also how to bicycle. Get you a coach who can teach both. Know there’s more then 1 way to do things. I DARE U tell me differently.

Sunday message: If you’re training kids or “supposedly” getting them better for their sport you should never tell them where & who to train with. Everyone should have the opportunity to train with whoever they feel comfortable training with. Trainers these kids aren’t ours.
PSA: Parents & kids if you nor your HC has spoken to a college then I’m telling you your offer is not real. I’ve spoken first hand with my colleagues in college and they tell me daily it’s so many bs offers out here. Hence why you see a kid with 30+ offers & signing day comes
As real as it gets. I believe in him the same way I know he believes in me. Unity. Support. Brotherhood.

I swear I love what I do & I truly do this for the kids. I’m passionate about what I do because I played at a high level & understand what it takes. I am a walking DB daily. Pros know & teach pros.

Parents be mindful of who you choose to let “train” your children. Are they really teaching retainable information that can be applied to their position & sport. Their is a difference between an actual coach & trainer. Busy work, cones, ladders aren’t used in competition.
DB ACADEMY = Developing boys to men while enhancing a unique talent that they possess. A unique talent that’s worthy of high praise. Well it all starts in the LAB

Ain’t nobody stopping 🛑 us. The plan & mission is to be better today then we where yesterday. Simple.
THE LAB 🔬: Drill = Resisted Lateral to Free Run
Below: DB must run lateral while pulling an external force. Once he releases we want to see him accelerate out through 15 yds. If you can run lateral for 15 yds you can cover just about every route in the book.

That college session was a VIB3. Man I truly love what I do!!! This ain’t for recognition or for the money. It’s truly for the love of the craft!!! When you been there it ain’t about money or who trains who. It’s about the young men! I don’t even post 75% of my work!
