YES I had a college coach ask me about TARDIES. If you can't get to class on time now, what makes you think they willing to drop 40K a year plus his job on you? Little things...
Dear HS Players, I hope you play HS football because you LOVE the game as your
#1
reason NOT because u dream of playing college football as
#1
! And coaches "WE" have to stop selling that dream as if all our kids will play it.
This won't get many likes or retweets though.
Right now I am 7-0, but I was also once 0-7, 3-4, 4-3.
To all those HC's..
Learn how to fight when you feel defeated.... Just because you are tired does not mean the fight is over.
Since all of US High School coaches are becoming proficient in using Zoom. We should be able to meet on the weekends at HOME next season, right? Or is it still we do what we have always done because.......?
Learned a lot about going from a 7A HC to a 1A HC. 1 them I kept is a practice segment named Team Blitz got it from
@CoachTM9
. Pass Plays w/ no DB's, defense sends 6 every play using front expected on Friday. If OL can't block pressure, u in trouble. Doing a Zoom on practice soon
COACHES you want to get more out of your Players? LOVE THEM!
Teachers you want to get more out of your students? LOVE THEM!
Principals you want SCHOOLS that Thrive? HIRE teachers that LOVE students!
LOVE nothing is Greater THAN!
Dear Assistant Coaches who say they want to sit in the Big Chair 1 Day.
Learn to Say Less on Twitter.
Everything don't need a comment or a reply...
Free Game.....
Players you only get 1 chance to play this season. Why would you do anything besides GO HARD every day?
The same with coaches! You get to coach this team once why would you prepare as if you get a redo with this team????
Go Hard, Prepare and DO THE WORK!
Be Great! Compete!
Great coaching staff CULTURES
1. Talk and Listen to each other equally
2. Always bring energy...
3. Talk 2 each other
4. Step across the line to help each other
5. When they break, the explore different answers and bring them back to the group!
Dear Teachers while our principals SET the culture of our building.
Remember, YOU OWN your classroom culture!
You are who the child will interact w/ more.
Do not blame this year, try to understand.
Don't complain this year, HELP SOLVE the issues!
Stay Positive and Stay Smiling!
I would rather send 10 young men to college for free to change their life than worry about a 500 dollar state championship trophy. They RUST. Education doesn't. TOO BAD I see what some of my peers coach for. You may have a ring, but NOT sure your changing lives.....
Dear Coaches, Parents and Teachers : "Do not prepare the path for the child. Prepare the child for the path and he will find his way." - Unknown, Native American
Players u want to survive the recruiting process? Here is some advice.. Do the best you can on the field, in class & on the test. Your height is ur height, the same with your weight & speed. Watching & Counting someone else's offers will only upset you. The cream always rises!
I may not be the BEST HC ever, but I hope my current and former players felt WE LOVED them and still do! If they don't I failed them & I apologize. We strive to teach LOVE & LIFE SKILLS. Everything else is extra. Can't control what the parents think. BUT PLAYERS KNOW U ARE LOVED!
As Football & School starts 2 notes. 1 for each..
Coaches - when writing your script please plan to spend 80% of your time on hashes, we rarely play with the ball in the middle!
Teachers - I know you want the BEST looking room, But spend the 1st week, learning your students!
Dear Coaches, some encouragement for you....
Colossians 3:23-24 - Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters, since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving.
Dear new and Future Head Coaches in any sport. Here is something I have learned in my time being one, that you need to know. You will be responsible for situations you didn't create, but that your job requires you deal with! understand this NOW or stay away.
You want to know what feels good as a Head Coach???? Having all my boys who are off playing college ball stopping by the school while they are on break..Their success, makes me feel good......
#NewtonBoyz
My dear friends from TX, 3 of the 4 FBS schools in the finals are loaded with GA kids. OU while loaded with TX kids, is eating off of a RB and OT from GA. NAIA championship final team from GA.... Maybe WE play the best HS FB here in GEORGIA...
Dear Coaches,
I KNOW we all hate when kids miss practice in early August. "You had all summer to take a vacation", we say. UNTIL u meet the parent who COULDN'T get Vacation time UNTIL early August.
WE DO NOT OWN THESE KIDS, learn to deal with situations as they come.
#growth
FOOTBALL Coaches:
Name one coach you have learned from or talked with this off-season who has ENHANCED your coaching!!!
@ Tag them so we can learn from them as well..........
Coach Twitter: While u guys all retweeting about how soft this generation is & how important the weight room is 2 championships, Have u called, texted r checked in on UR players over the break? Just thinking about how they usually go the xtra mile 4 those they know love them...
Dear Coaches,
Please remember....In a Performance Based Business play the guys who Perform -

We aren't running a modeling agency stop trying to play guys based off looks.

Know your history.
Memorial Day was started by former slaves on May, 1, 1865 in Charleston, SC to honor 257 dead Union Soldiers who had been buried in a mass grave in a Confederate prison camp.
5 things that my first time Head Coaches need to know this season. 🧵That my going on 10 years as one has taught me. Vets you can read as well (but I know you have all the answers.)

. We run Counter GH and variations. So here is Counter Drill for us during the playoff week.
I will be doing a Zoom on Small School Practice for the week, the week of the 19th.
12 years ago..
Just 2 plain ole Math teachers.
No kids, just a dog.
1 was coaching volleyball.
The other track & football where the starting quarterback is now famous 4 yelling 'Mama' on songs that play on the radio....
Who knew where this road would lead.
Happy Anniversary!
We lost tonight 52-8.
The score is what it is.
HOWEVER,
Meadowcreek had a team make back to back playoff apperances and FINISH Higher than a 4th Seed for the 1st Time Ever.
So PROUD of these YOUNG MEN!
Very Grateful for the MEN who help me coach them.

#Standard21
Coaches while you at home watching every Zoom, don't forget..
1. The average HS team has 15 3rd down plays a game and 33% of those in the Red Zone.
2. Have a plan from 5-20 and for inside the 5.
3. It's OK, to have a special package for inside the 5!

I keep telling yall a lot of coaches say Faith, Family and Football
But they really mean
Football
Football
Football
...
...
Faith
.....
......
......
......
Family.
Fellas, yes tell your boys to workout at home, but tell them to be safe and YOU go enjoy your family!
Prospects if u are going 2 a MEGA camp. Make sure u register early because the colleges get a Print Out list of attendees the day prior & if a college u have talked to is going to be there hit up the coach recruiting you 2 days early. So he can know or the guy from his 🏫 going.
Head Coaches, a few notes. U can't do everything. Delegate & give authority 2 ur assistant coaches! Because u can't delegate responsibility!
Put stuff on their plate let them GO! Ur job is 2 allow them 2 coach & take the bullets! If u can't delegate GET THE RIGHT STAFF!
Dear Peers,
@OfficialGHSA
wouldn't have to send us email after email if you would follow the rules. Your players and the news media is telling on you and they don't know it. Because they don't know the rules and obviously we aren't following it statewide.
@CoachGeorgia_
Dear Coaching Friends.
If a coach comes by & you don't take pictures cool.
If a coach comes by & you do take pictures & post them cool.
Neither is wrong. Neither is a must.
Do you & your program.
& run your race.
When you got players they love you, don't have them & see.
Coaches from time to time to ask me for advice on being a Head Coach... So here we go....
#1
thing you need to know....
YOU become responsible for situations you didn't create. YOU are tasked with solving them!
If you are heavy RPO's you are going to see Cover 0/1..
You need 1 of 2 things...
1) WR's that can go
2)QB that is a running threat.
You got both. OH BOY...
You got neither... OH BOY..
Either way have more in your "system"
Dear Future Head Coaches & a few current ones....
Winning Formula.. Elite Coaches + Elite Experience for Players = Elite Programs..

Hadn't been watching much film. Real pressing issues out here. But I am today. I absolutely love

Dear WR's and WR coaches... In the words of
@wideouts
"The drills are the routes
The routes are the plays
The plays are the games
Master the drills"
DO THE WORK!
Some coaches r already worried about how many days their players will miss of Workouts, u know because WINNING is there main thing..
Others r working on a balance between them & camps, cause helping a kid possibly get a free education & lessen the cost of 🏫 is important 2.
Man y'all don't understand the feeling when you get mail from NFL teams asking you about your former players!!!!!
Always Believe in the

Teachers and Coaches as a reminder I need US (you and me) to fully become the PLUG for our kids.
Provide opportunities to grow.
Love them even when the mess up.
Understand that they will make mistakes.
Guide them back on the right path.
Be the PLUG!
Dear coaches, EFFORT can be demanded! When you tell ur players what u want & u don't get it, you have 2 options let it slide or correct it! 4 example, if ur standard states all players on Kickoff must run through the endzone & they don't! The CHOICE is urs! DEFINE UR EFFORT!
Older Coaches: There are a lot of younger coaches ready to be coordinators younger than we were.
Young Coaches: Sometimes that isn't the job offer. If you are truly trying to move up to the TOP. The who you worked for matters PROBABLY MORE than what your resume says.
2 cents
Dear Head Coaches there are really only 2 kind...
THOSE who have been fired and those who will be....
Do it your way....
You either die a hero or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain.
At least you know your plan worked or not!
Dear players college coaches want to see your games when your team loses because if you don't have that same dog like mindset when your team is losing you aren't a true warrior!
38th rotation around the "sun"! BLESSED! I pray that over the next 365 days I continue to become a better husband, father, son, brother and leader. And that I keep Positively-Smiling! AMEN!
Being an educator/coach can be draining. This quote was right on time..
"If the wise men, leave the village, the village idiots will raise the children" Think about it!
Back to trying to change lives!
