My young black brothers... Take some time out of your weekend to watch the Netflix series “When they see us”
This is the story of the Central Park 5, young minorities wrongly convicted of rape.
Please, please, please watch, learn, and educate yourself.
#WhenTheySeeUs
We play the game of football for a reason. It is your WHY, no matter how big or how small. Often times it can be the WHO?
It fuels you and drives your passion all over the gridiron.
What do you play for?
Or
Who do you play for?
Recruiting is similar to Mentoring!
You must REACH the student athlete, if you want them to believe and trust in you! 🔰
R - RELATE to young people
E - ENGAGE them with questions
A - Make 🏋🏽♂️ AWARE of their needs
C - CONVINCE them there is hope
H - EXTEND a hand for commitment!
Another max scholarship opportunity has opened up.
Looking to offer an opportunity to an athlete who has no offers, no college of choice, and no options available.
Allow me to bless a young man with a tremendous opportunity.
Dm me for further details

Talked to an athlete today, he is no longer a recruit because he has already committed elsewhere . He called just to chat and ask a few questions about preparing for Camp.
I asked, why didnt you call your coach.
His response:They dont answer the phone🤷🏽♂️
C’mon man
This is why Victory formation is the best formation in football!

“Your athleticism may earn you a scholarship, but your athleticism wont help you keep it.” Character is revealed by Circumstance!
There is not many Coaches out there on any level that can recruit like me. That’s not a shot at anyone. I am honestly just stating the facts!

It’s a certain athletic mindset that 757 athletes are breeded with! The dogg mentality can’t be taught! What is understood does not have to be explained!

Attended a school yesterday. Main reason for driving there was to offer a kid, the kid was not in class when he was called.
Missed opportunity!
I dont make 2nd trips.

I do not care how CoOoL you are, save that for your friends.
Those athletes who want to be CoOoL are the easiest to be manipulated and they can’t lock in on the TEAM GOAL!
I recruit athletes who go to battle by themselves and never hesitate to go war with the team

It is too late in your recruiting process for you to continue to be naive. You are your own man, stop depending on others

You sleep through class for 3 years straight.
Grind your senior year, to make up for lost time.
Then you tweet: Colleges keep sleeping on me.
Wrong, you just finaly woke up.
Happy 3rd Birthday to my bundle of joy.
Three years of watching you grow & blossom into an amazing little person you are today has been the most incredible gift. Your laughter, attitude, curiosity, and endless energy brighten our lives in ways we could have never imagine.🥳💕🌈
We as coaches have to keep it real, but young student athletes also have to keep it real.
What is real?
R - Recognizing
E - Everyone
A - Aint
L - Loyal
I rather a coach tell me he’s not interested instead of leading me on with no real intentions of signing me 💯 or ghost me after days of talking , that’s just me 🤷🏽♂️ I can take rejection but being played with , I can’t , this is my future I’m trying to secure....
Booked flight this morning back to California.
I know where the forgotten ballers are.
Cali Juco guys send your info. I will be there thr first week in June.
Looking to meet, speak, motivate, and provide opportunities.
In Jersey looking for the 💎 in the rough players... Them guys who have really been slept on. They attend a school that did not have one college recruit come visit this season!
“I've missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I've been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. Ive failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed”.
