As a Head Coach, it is your duty that everyone in the building knows you care. Not by words, but with your actions. Can’t be just look at me. Big TEAM little me is about leadership as well.
Thank you for all the prayers for our guys. Please continue to pray for the Webb family. May God comfort them. Continue to pray for the other players and their families as they continue to heal. GOD is good all the time!!
So sad that my mentor and dear friend past today. So happy that Gold opened his arms to today to the most Godly man I have known. Coach Phil Jones I love you and will miss you.
#Relationships
Why when I am watching major college football no one has their knees covered with their knee pads. Yet in the NAIA, every week it is treated like hell on earth. Just saying. You do know that that little pad is not keeping that knee from getting blown out right?
So proud of our team. Commit to 4 quarters and great things will happen. I believe in our guys so much. Our kids played their hearts out. Our coaches coached their hearts out.

I am so proud of our team. We beat the 4th ranked team in the country today. Are guys are warriors. They never quit and play for each other. Great to be a Phoenix on Saturday night.

Thanks to the Tyler McChurch Foundation and the McChurch family for Room 29. Great meeting room added to our facility here at football.

Cumberland University is looking for great students who want to commit and build relationships with teammates and play with P.R.I.D.E. Physical, Relentless, Impassioned, Devoted, and Excited. Not handing out offers, looking for commitments.

Thanks to
@CoachCarmean
and Kennesaw Mtn for letting us practice at their place. Relationships last a lifetime. I guess GT did not want Cumberland back on campus.
Locker room gutted. Now time to clean up and paint and get ready for new floor and lockers. A little throw back uncovered when removing wrap from paint.

Attention athletes: You are not being humble when you say you are staying humble and then go on to talk about what you have done. Let other people talk about you. This picture sums it up. New leading regular season rusher in GA and the one that had the record. U would never know
If you pray, please pray for our area. Middle Tennessee and the county Cumberland University is in, Wilson County, was devastated with a tornado last night. Keep the community and their families in your prayers.

It is coming along. We got a big surprise for Saturday and recruits this fall. More to come. Our administration here is awesome. Ron Pavan is the best and a huge thank you to Dr. Stumb for investing in our student athletes.
PHOENIX WIN 🔥
What a comeback for the Phoenix! The Phoenix scored twice in the fourth quarter to get the 25-24 win over Webber! Great team win with timely big plays!
The truth will set you free. Be honest when recruiting. Every recruit you talk to can’t start. Too many in my profession are used car salesmen and will tell young men anything they think they want to hear to get them to commit. Chasing relationships here at Cumberland not lies
If you are a believer please pray for those battling COVID. Someone I have known since childhood, and like another father to me, is fighting it. God is good and in control.
I am asked a lot from recruits and parents, how do I get recruited? It is simple. Be the best teammate and player for your high school. Your film gets you recruited. Be a great teammate. It matters the most.

Well they have done it again. The Camden County Wildcats have put on a masterclass in the Wing -T and really good team defense. They just beat defending 7-A champs and 7th ranked nationally Mill Creek Hawks. Great job

PHOENIX WIN!! 🔥
Cumberland football breaks the program record in points scored in a game in their 65-22 win over Campbellsville University! The previous record was 64 points in a 64-38 win over Tusculum College back in 1996!

Thank you to the fans this year. Thank you to the town of Lebanon for supporting our team this year. Best fans in conference. We are gonna bust our tails this off season to get better. Nothing like being a Phoenix on a Saturday night.
The Phoenix send off the seniors with a big win!
The defense shined holding to 30 yards of total offense with eight sacks!
Thank you to all of our seniors and congratulations!
#WeArePhoenix
Morgan and James showed out. We scored with no time on the clock and went for two and came up a yard short. No OT rules. Didn’t show up to tie. Morgan selected DL player of the game. GO PHOENIX!!!
Having camps for young kids to learn and develop fundamentals is great. There should be more of them. To have “camps” and rank kids that have not even been through puberty yet. That is a joke and pure money grab. I don’t understand society’s need for I instant gratification.
Great team effort. We GATA today. It is great to be a Phoenix on a Saturday night!!! Love these players and coaches so much. Also loved the support of the fans and Alumni.

Accountability is not that you are being picked on or misunderstood. It is a standard. Successful people don’t need it. They have an accountability meeting every morning in the mirror. Are you have that meeting in the morning or taking a selfie?!?!?

PHOENIX WIN 🔥
Treylon Sheppard was a workhouse toting the rock 47 times for 280 yards and 3 touchdowns! Cumberland ran for 403 yards and were efficient on third down offensively and defensively while dominating the time of possession! Great team win for CU!
Let me be very clear, Being a Christian, which means believing and following Christ, means you love EVERYONE. Not some people who only have your views and values. A lot of Christians are losing this foundation that Christ commanded us to do.
My dad would have been 84 today. I would love to talk football with him. He is a big reason I do what I do. I hope I am half the man, father, and Coach that he was.
Thanks to

Great example of servant leadership. He was and will always be the best example of a Cumberland man I can point to. We are losing a good one. Love you Coach Loveless.

The Offensive Line doesn’t need any other position to be good. Every other position needs the Offensive Line to be good.
The most important position group in football.
