Pray for Ruston freshman football player Lux Smith. On Monday around 11AM my Lux had a severe heat stroke at one of his first football practices of the summer. He was immediately rushed to the Ruston ER. He was unresponsive when he arrived, but luckily they were able to stabilize him. Since then, he's been flown to LSU Medical where he was seen by a Nephrologist. Lux is now at the Arkansas Children's PICU in Little Rock where they have a full spectrum of support for him.
He is still asleep and has been put on dialysis to support his kidneys and his liver. His heart rate, blood pressure and breathing have all improved, but we are just praying for his brain. The doctors are hopeful, but objective. The link to donate is listed below. 🙏🏻🙏🏾
“Then Jesus said to His disciples, ‘If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow Me. For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake will find it. For what profit is it to a man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul? Or what will a man give in exchange for his soul?’” (Matthew 16:24-26)
Look at this box we got here!
It comes from Ruston, Louisiana from the LA TECH BULLDOGS!
There are some great players from LA Tech, and their coach was no slouch back in his playing days either!!
Thank you Coach Cumbie and @LATechFB for this great box, keep up the good work!!
So long Colorado. Officially SOLD our home this afternoon. That Cross in the POD container has been with us on every move as a family. Can't wait to plant in our new yard in Ruston. God always makes a way.
Many Coaches teach a Gallop or “high leg” by the FST (FSG on an “Ace” call) on Double Teams on Gap Runs but you can further maximize lateral displacement by implementing a Flipper Cross Shove.

@FedExHelp You lost my passport on March 18. I have wasted hours of my life on the phone with your "customer service" only to get nowhere. How about you reimburse my claim that has been in since March 18th so we can move on. And stop asking me for my claim number.
Francis Mauigoa was on the phone with the Giants while his mom and dad just prayed and praised the Lord behind him

Sometimes you find great friends later in life. These pictures remind me of how blessed I am to be able to talk to an incredible mentor on a daily basis. Thank you @CoachMcNallyOL for all of our talks (debates) and your willingness to invest in my football journey.
Really proud of my guy Brady. He's has worked hard at learning how to lift and it's paying off. Today will be his 3rd track meet in a row to finish in the Top 3 at the Discus. He has won 2 of the meets. Another PR today.
Howard Mudd’s definition of toughness is excellent: it’s not how much you can dish out — it’s how much you can take and still execute the next snap.
That’s the part most people skip.
They train the “I’ll hit you” side.
They don’t train the “I got hit, I’m good, next snap” side.
And that’s why the best offensive line rooms feel different.
When the pocket gets chaotic, they don’t.
When a rep goes sideways, they don’t spiral.
They reset, communicate, execute, and go again.
If you’re a player, a coach, or leading a team, steal this.
