Child of God • TE Coach & Recruiting Coordinator
@Newberry_FB
• Former Athlete • Native of Charleston, SC • 2x Big South Champ • 2x SIAC East Champ • SAC Champ
Can’t begin to explain how proud I am of this kid! Battled adversity, nagging injury, missing most of the ‘21 season and the spring of ‘22, worked his butt off, and is now an All-American TE!
Proud to be your coach, 1st-team goals next year

Saddening, saddening news this morning. God took one of his most kind, humble, loving soldiers off of the battlefield last night.
Please pray for my family as we are devastated by the passing my cousin Lavel Davis Jr.
Love and already miss you, kid.

High School WR’s:
Whoever told you to put all of your best plays at the beginning of your tape, is ABSOLUTELY right! But at some point after 16 minutes of GO balls, I want to see some releases, separation at the top of the route, and some YAC! Fades are BORING! Can you get open?
RECRUITS!
During this MASS recruiting time, please:
🔹Make your Twitter name your real name
🔹Include link to your newest highlight tape in your bio
🔹Highlight yourself BEFORE the play begins
🔹If you’re not committed, don’t have a profile pic with you on another team’s visit!
RECRUITS!
As our staff watches tape this morning, some highlight video tips come to mind!
- ALWAYS put your best clips at the beginning
- ALWAYS clearly mark/highlight yourself BEFORE the play starts
- ALWAYS use sideline shots (OL/DL excluded)
- ALWAYS trim clips down to…
Lavel’s mother, Simone, has informed me that the State of SC has decided to name a highway after Lavel Tyler Norman Davis Jr. near his HS. They will have a dedication ceremony on Saturday, April 29th, 2023 from 12pm - 2pm.
Continuing your legacy

The receiver suddenly lowers his center of gravity in order to protect himself, thus putting his helmet in the direct path of the defender’s helmet who was ALWAYS aimed at the chest area. Can’t blame the defender for the receiver suddenly dropping his head.
Terrible call.

They explicitly asked him about the pace, should he ignore the question? He told no lies, Cantlay is brutally slow and played a 4 hour and 56 minute round.
It’s wild..
I look at Twitter and see coaches and recruiters ask for players..
D1 request: 2,000+ comments
D2 request: 500 comments
D3 request: 80 comments
Do you want to get a degree while getting to play football, or do you just want to SAY you play for “X” University?🤦🏾♂️
Crazy to watch a HS coach do a great job working his butt off to promote one of his kids, and the kid ignores phone calls because it’s a D2 coach calling, yet he has no D1 offers!
Don’t burn bridges! You may be calling that same D2 coach in a few years wanting transfer money!
If your recruitment is “open” it’s time to change your profile picture from you in an an Alabama/Clemson/etc uniform from your unofficial visit. I’m gonna think you’re committed!
Yesterday was fine. But there’s some hard-nosed, tough, 2020 high school kids out there right now still available with a CHIP on their shoulders! 2020 you’re still up. Let’s change your life NOW.
Nothing like Saturdays in The Coliseum..

Slow play is terrible but I’m not paying $80+ to sprint through the course, rush shots, not line up putts, and shoot a million. I’ve seen a 5-6 shot difference at times by just taking my time. Maybe if it’s free but regardless, I’m there to enjoy myself and shoot a decent score.
@shannonsharpeee
Rashee went to one of the assistant coaches saying he was open on the fade ball to Kelce and complained about Pat. Pat went and confronted him because of it.

It’s official visit season! The coaches have already evaluated you, now it’s time for you to evaluate them.
Soul search. Ask questions. A lot of them. Are they all about what YOU can do for THEM, or what THEY can do for YOU?

Cam is currently better than:
- Desmond Ridder
- Mike White
- Sam Darnold
- Davis Mills
- Baker Mayfield
- Kenny Pickett
- Jacoby Brissett
And the jury is still out on if Mac is even better. Cam was thrown into two bad situations straight, with a huge lack of preparation time.
Recruits/Coaches that responded to my last recruiting tweet! That’s 500+ of you. I am having a spreadsheet made over the weekend of everyone’s state, school, and HUDL! I will watch every one of you over the next two weeks. Please have as much information in your bio as possible.

There’s a lot of good carryover from basketball to football when it comes to wide outs. I often teach releases using a crossover metaphor to help them understand. It’s been good to me.
DEFENSIVE BACKS!
Newberry Football is looking for the next Ron Parker, the next David Vereen, the next Anthony Blue, and I’ve been tasked with finding him TODAY!
Let the tape speak 🎥
A high test score and a low GPA has always been somewhat of a red flag to me.
What I see is a young man that’s very intelligent, yet not applying himself in the classroom!
Work hard and take control of your future! Every little bit helps!

I’m seeing all of these debates..
JUCO vs. Transfer
Portal vs. No Portal
“Quit” vs. “2nd Chance”
At the end of the day, if you can ball, you can ball! Everyone’s situation is different. 🏈
Main thing is, get that degree! 📜
PS. I’m still watching tape. Give me some time! 🎥

Our future President is a strong human being. Losing his wife, daughter, and a son. Teased as a kid for being a stutterer. Life threatening brain aneurism. Yet here we are. This is the type of decent, resilient, caring individual we need as leader of the free world.
When going on a visit to be a PWO, ask the hard questions! Make sure you ask the Head Coach “How many of your current walk-ons earned a scholarship this past year?” Make sure they are holding their promise to the PWO’s before you and letting them earn a scholarship!

If any high school coaches want to get together on a Zoom session during the Coronavirus quarantine and talk WR play, I’m all in! I have drill tape/film etc and I want to learn from you guys as well. Let’s link!

My dad is a 40 year coaching vet, with numerous championships, coached every position besides OL during that time, been an OC an HC, and didn’t play past JV football. Playing the position is not a prerequisite. Some of the best players have been some of the worst coaches.
Man. This!
Many programs try to get you to go free all the way through and spend all of their money on the NEXT class.
Come to The Berry and have an actual chance to earn it!
9-2.
Back to Back Conference Champions.
Harlon Hill Finalist RB.
Victories over Wingate, Lenoir-Rhyne, and Mars Hill.

No bad losses.
One heck of a season by the Wolves.

High School/JUCO WR’s:
I cannot stress this enough..
Countless clips of jump balls will NOT get you recruited! I know sometimes it isn’t your fault because that’s all you’re being used for. But we want to see you run routes, run by people, put your foot in the ground, get YAC!
The Committee just smacked these guys in the face:
- The RB room
- The WR room
- The TE room
- The OL room
- The DL room
- The LB room
- The DB room
- The Specialists
And every other player on Florida State’s roster. A team is BIGGER than 1 player and that’s why 🏈 is so great.
@presnapinc
Good warmup. Gets the ankles loose. Great for stability. But don’t waste practice time with it because it has no game correlation. Do it in pre-practice only.
I shouldn’t let this bother me, but I hurt for the kids. Even more, I hurt for the seniors.
Through diligent research and a little help, I’ve confirmed this is the FIRST time a crowned solo SAC Champion was denied entry into the playoffs.
Someone needs to give an explanation.
Clayton County, Dekalb County, Henry Counity, Macon Area, Columbus Area, and all of South Carolina! I’m still looking for 2020 BALLERS! Drop your tape! 👀

@LegionHoops
Being a coach, I’m naturally against blaming coaches and wanting coaches to lose their job.
I say all of that to say, even if they WIN game 7 they should look to move on from Doc. Unless they win it all.

Imagine saying Wayne emulated a “Youngboy flow” when Youngboy and a thousand other rappers actually copied Wayne’s flow.
These new cats are just Wayne’s children!
We have a locker room full of tough, confident, God fearing young men, that love each other and play hard every snap! That’s more dangerous than any stat line you can throw at me! Great team win. On to the next.
Stop making excuses about what you DON’T have and show some effort to take advantage of what you DO have!
Show God he can trust you with a LITTLE and he will bless you with a LOT.
I can’t stand to hear a coach scream and yell at a WR/TE to “catch the ball” after a drop. Is that the best piece of “coaching” that you have? Do you think he didn’t want to catch the ball?
Why don’t you address and TEACH the root cause of the drop?
@BraxtonKbrice
@DeionSanders
He did a great job bringing awareness to HBCU ball! Coming from a HBCU alum, I think it’s okay for him to continue forward with his goals.
This time last year I doubted if I would ever coach the sport I love again..
God told me he had other plans..
Today, I’m a champion. And a child of God. And you can’t take that from me.
LOVE THIS TEAM!

Good for their fans to see depth. Had they lost, people would of said “same ‘ol Falcons. Preseason or not, it’s always better to win.
A lot of 2021’s reaching out to me on this rainy evening. Got my work cut out for me, and I love it! Love the interest in the Golden Rams!

I walk around so many hallways and see cats 6’4-6’6 250+, and ask coach “Who’s that? What position is he?” Just to be told that “He just wants to play basketball, he’s our Power Forward.”
NEWS FLASH! Point guards are 6’4 these days!
There’s a place in the NFL for you at tackle!
I am incredibly thankful to of made the relationships I have made at ASU.
To the players I’ve coached, coaches I’ve coached with, admin that I’ve worked with, and to the City of Albany, thank you for making this a memorable 3 1/2 years.
God’s will and next chapter awaits!

*Allen Iverson has entered the chat*
One of the greatest players in the history of the game, whom happened to carry one of the worst NBA Finals teams ever to a sure fate vs the Lakers. Even snuck a win.
The Coastal Carolina’s and Cincinnati’s of the world is why we should have a 12-team playoff. How exciting would it be to see CCU potentially beat a P5 and what a March Madness feel!
Recruits! It's a must that you put your BEST plays of the season at the front of your highlight! It's a way to make sure the tape stays on! The order goes; area coach, position coach, coordinator, head coach. Your video must impress!

Exactly. 95% of us have never committed a crime and do not endorse gang violence. So because of an ignorant 5%, NONE of us can speak out against police brutality? That’s asinine.
