Things #Teachers don’t talk about:

How you use your “breaks” to answer parent messages, update the gradebook, make copies, prep the next lesson, or just sit in silence trying to reset before kids come back to class.

Everybody wants to go D1 until it’s time to do “D1” things.

D1 isn’t what you think it is. It’s a lot of emotional stress that is unloaded on you on-top of very high expectations. You see the NIL money, the sponsorships, the uniforms, etc., but what you don’t see are the 5 am workouts at the facility. You don’t see the 2-3 hours of film you’re required to watch and take notes on, and we track it. You don’t see the 2-3 hour practices in the middle of the summer when it’s 91 degrees and 84% humidity. You don’t see the absurd amount of class work you are expected to complete and study for on your own (no more hand holding in college like in HS). You don’t see the sacrificing of social time because you have football, school, then football again all day every day. Weekends? You’re at the facility watching film for a few hours. You live, eat, and breathe football. The schools invested a lot into you, so they are going to require even more.

I don’t say this to scare you from dreaming big - but I say this to put things into reality for you because ESPN makes CFB look a lot more glamorous than it really is. There’s a reason those student athletes get the perks that they do, it’s because the work they put in well exceeds what they are given 100% of the time. Ask yourself, am I comfortable and willing to give up more than what I am getting in return? That’s the ultimate question.

At the @WEAVE NIL Summit last week, we held a financial literacy workshop, teaching our clients about taxes, investing, compound interest, 401k’s & IRA’s… we have clients who saved & invested enough NIL money to retire at 55 without a worry. With 4 years of NIL earnings and sound financial advice, some of our clients (who won’t make the NBA) will be able to pass down millions to their children, breaking generational cycles of poverty.

@WSJ where is the article about that? I have dozen’s of athletes who would love to be interviewed.

Or will that not get enough clicks (or serve the NCAA’s lobbying efforts) ?

@damienhdez @AutoPhagey @RonDeSantis The ones I’ve come across absolutely do.

[Patricia Vickers @PattyVickers305]

@RonDeSantis My guess is probably the majority of them.

@official_jq_ Coach, @JasonHarville16 is a 3-down sideline to sideline backer in the ‘27 class that is a thumper in the hole, and can cover, very strong, and is explosive through the tackle. 5’11 205, he can play inside or outside in any defense, which is a multiplier https://t.co/fwA8QcdVN6

Summer break is just around the corner, and excitement is building for our 50 Yard Challenge! This unique opportunity allows kids to step up and make a real difference in their communities. By signing up, your child will embark on a journey starting with a white shirt, tasked with mowing, raking, shoveling, and tidying up for the elderly, disabled, single parents, and veterans—all free of charge.

As they progress through their 50-yard mission, they’ll earn new colored shirts for every set of 10 lawns cared for—orange, green, blue, red, and ultimately, black. Completing all 50 lawns earns them not just the black shirt but also a personal delivery of brand-new lawn care equipment from me! It’s a rewarding challenge that builds character, skills, and community spirit. So, talk with your child about becoming a part of this fantastic initiative this summer.

Will your child be the next to accept the 50 Yard Challenge? Find out more and sign up at : https://t.co/cUXfnpDBhS

Let’s make a difference, one lawn at a time!

@JasonWa88766117 @CodyC64 Say it one more time Jason for the ones in the back with their hands over their ears, not trying to hear what the ATHLETES are saying!

[Patricia Vickers @PattyVickers305]

@CodyC64 Have you talked to any of the TT players about how they feel about the bill? Should be an eye-opening experience. We want to “protect” athletes without even asking them what they need protection from. ATHLETES DESERVE A SEAT AT THE TABLE!
