Boys Of Fall would not have been the same without my good friend @SeanPayton. This is Sean giving a pregame speech in Naperville, Illinois where he played High School football. This speech wasn’t scripted. He spoke from heart. Sean is a great football coach but he is a great communicator and motivator. This speech still gives me chills. Sean I am forever grateful. It’s football season everyone. KC
@MrOH1O I’ll say WR, who can gain separation on a consistent basis outside of Jeremiah Smith. They need another guy that can consistently win against Texas, Oregon, IU and Michigan to prevent double teams on every play.
I’m asking you to help share this post! We had 12 students show up tonight for the first official day of high school football practice. We also have 3 more players who were out of state today, bringing us to around 15 players.
Unfortunately, that's still not enough to have a football season. We're asking any high school boy who has even the slightest interest in playing football to come to the football field tomorrow at 4:00 PM. We need at least 6 more players to have a chance at a season.
At the end of this week, I may have to make the difficult decision to cancel our high school football season, a decision I truly do not want to make.
Now is the time to try something new.
Now is the time to become part of a brotherhood.
Now is the time to build friendships that can last a lifetime.
Now is the time to experience one of the greatest sports in the world.
Now is the time to be an Elwood Panther Athlete
Parents, I'm asking for your help. Please talk with your son and ask if he has any interest in playing high school football. If the cost of cleats is keeping them from playing, I will personally pay for them out of my own pocket.
We're pleading for 6 more players to come to the football field tomorrow at 4:00 PM. Give football a chance you may discover something you'll love and create memories that last a lifetime.
Please share this post and help us keep our football program alive!
