RECRUITs: RUN TRACK! TRACK is an excellent supplement sport to football, and it can teach you how to start and run your 40s.

Here are a few reasons why track training can be beneficial for football:

Seniors: Cherish your last HS team camps! There are only a few weeks of summer camp left & the time goes quick! Make sure you compete every minute that you get to, cherish time with your teammates, take lots of pictures & make sure to enjoy it because you will miss these days!

HS Parents:

Prior to complaining to your child’s coach about playing ask yourself 4 questions:

1 Does my child attend ALL practices?
2 Does my child spend xtra hrs on their game?
3 Has my child performed when given the chance?
4 Does my child want it as bad as I do?

‼️The first thing a college coach wants to see once he knows you can play is your transcript.

Will your transcript help you get recruited, or will your transcript keep you from being recruited?

HS Football Fact: the most important aspect of your weight program is attendance/participation. Dont worry about all the bells and whistles, they are teen age boys not world class athletes. They will make gains if the program is sound and they are dedicated.

Derek Jeter’s first contract was worth $0.

It was a contract with his parents.

He signed it every year as a kid.

Before each school year, his parents would outline their expectations.

They’d put them in a contract with clauses such as:

• No drugs
• No alcohol
• No arguing
• Respect girls
• Meet curfew

And Derek would have to sign it.

If he violated the contract, there’d be no baseball.

Jeter would go on to become a New York Yankees legend and a MLB Hall of Famer.

These contracts are how it started.

***

Lesson: Success isn’t an accident

As a kid, Jeter didn’t understand the contracts.

They were a hokey thing his parents did.

But over time, he saw the intention behind them.

“It built the framework for success,” he said.

He learned that successful people aren’t that way on accident.

***

Lesson: Accountability is nurtured

Everyone would agree accountability is essential.

But you’re not just born with it.

It’s a character trait that’s taught and nurtured.

This was the primary purpose of the contracts, Jeter said.

Accountable people become successful people.

***

Lesson: Stay grounded

Jeter quickly blossomed in baseball.

By 18 years old, he was one of the best prospects in the country.

The Yankees drafted him No. 6 overall in the 1992 draft.

But his parents didn’t let that get to him.

Even as a high school senior, he had to obey the contract or he wouldn’t play.

“It taught us to stay grounded,” Jeter said.

***

3 timeless lessons:

• Build a framework for success
• Hold yourself accountable to it
• And stay grounded

They apply to everything.

Let your kids struggle, fail & lose. Experiencing loss is essential for growth, maturity & learning. Kids aren’t supposed to win all the time. Fake trophies are meaningless. Let them feel & accept failure sometimes. It’s a part of life. You can either prepare them or pamper them!

High school football players, if you’re not running track you’re likely getting slower than your competition. Outside of wrestling, there’s not another sport that directly correlates to your athletic improvement and development as a football player.

Patrick Mahomes wrote an open letter to the NFL that was published the morning the 2017 #NFLDraft was to begin.

If you read one thing today, make it this.

This is a human being who was not going to fail.

My pregame talk to the @CenturyJagsMBB team last night. Proud of these boys and coaches. This was so special. Thank you Coach Kellar! I love you and your coaches and boys! Honored to join your staff for this game.

Had a parent tell me that they wanted their son to play D1 basketball.

In a separate meeting, the son told me privately he has no interest of playing sports in college.

Parents, please make sure your goals + aspirations for you son/daughter aren’t your goals, but theirs.

Christian Gonzalez nearly quit football in HS because coaches placed him on JV, saying he “wasn’t strong” in the weight room.

Gonzalez decided to stick with it and eventually accepted an offer to Colorado.

Two years later, he transferred to Oregon to put himself in the national spotlight.

Gonzalez established himself as one of the top CB’s in the nation.

Now, he is looking at potentially being the first Oregon CB taken in the 1st round in 27 YEARS.

NEVER give up 🔥
