I’m just a 36 year old white dude who’s lived a privileged life. I don’t know what I can do, but I too am frustrated. I’m not here with answers. But I am here with empathy & support. “The Lord works righteousness and justice for all who are oppressed.” Psalm 103:6

I’m so thankful to @bobby_lamb . He gave me a chance as a player a long time ago, then hired me in 2012 to coach the RBs at Mercer. I’ve learned so much from him as a coach, but also as a man. He has an amazing love for his players and staff. He’s truly one of a kind!

Last year we signed 11 players with at least 1 FBS offer. We signed others who fit us better than a lot of guys who signed with FBS teams. We also passed on a lot of guys who ended up signing with FBS schools. Don’t buy into what D-1 level it is. Pick the best fit!
