This team is actually legit. They went 10-3 that year, 7-0 in conference play in Cincinnati and their quarter back is now the NCAA d2 all time leading passer with like 15k+ yards. Guess these speeches worked lol
For all those asking, the prayer is as follows: Lord, I am only one, but I am one, I cannot do everything, but I can do something, and that, which i'm about to do tonight, with your help, I will do, THANK GOD I PLAY FOR INDIAN HILL! - a current Indian Hill Football player who's team still repeats this prayer.
If you shed a tear there, I have a feeling I scored a TD on you. Doubt you played college. No way any solid player and now adult cries to a TH-cam video. Lol come on.
This gave me goosebumps ! I'm 64 years old and it brought me back to a time in high school when I needed the structure of football in my life and a closeness with friends I'll never forget.
Anything where you face the shit together. A war, a kitchen, the police (as police or as crimina), a hood playground, hell, even a regular school with bullys or shit parents or teachers...Lots of places.
Soccer too believe it or not , we do soccer players have the same type of bond with each other coming from someone who has played soccer in multiple nations including the US
@@jamilsayegh9127 soccer is my number one sport. But there’s nothing like football for brotherhood. Soccer is continuous clock and an art of patience to some degree. Football is more momentum and very detailed with play calling and clock stopping. While there is definitely some overlap tactically…Soccer is formations, tactics and subs. Football is key on matchups matchups, mental and way more physical. While both requiring stamina. Both great. Just way different and brotherhood wise football is more short bursts of emotion while soccer is elongated and like I said more of an art. It’s called the beautiful game for a reason.
Man, I heard this speech at least twice a week for 3 months before finishing my degree. 6 years later and I felt that energy again. I am sobbing of happiness.
The best part of this speech was that he didn't need to name the book. The point of this speech was faith and heart...internal attributes/qualities that humans can conjure to raise their spirits, awareness, and sometimes acuity. Anyone arguing about the accuracy of his story missed the point.
+MAG ATL Well said. I'm weeping as I type this because rarely, both in your comment and the video itself, has a message been so well put in so few words.
BigBlack81 - Tears are literally running down my face right now. My whole life I've been negative towards religion. It's not the religion that is powerful. It's the state of mind. I'm in shock. A two minute video has shown me more than a lifetime of explanations.
When I was going through some of the rough patches in my life, this speech and prayer got me through . I said it every day and believed every word that came from the coach. I’m healed and I’m better because of the intangible inside of my heart. Thank u coach.
greatness comes in quick segments in a persons life ,its moments like these that can define an individuals life . this team lost the game in question , but they won something bigger than a game . they won a philosophy that would help them win many battles to come in their lives where much more is a stake than one football game .
Chills… pure and beautiful chills ran throughout my body. Moments like these are what stay with young players all across the nation throughout our lives from B squad middle to Homecoming games in our Senior years. I thank GOD for Coaches like this man. Helping to raise & lead these young men to victory and success in sports and life.
Now my sophomore year in college. I can say stuff like this makes me wanna play this game one more time. And high school kids who don't know if they wanna play after high school I highly encourage you to chase you dream. I didn't and I regret it so much. Never give up on something you can't go a day without thinking about.
Good God! I watched this video probably 10x in a row! The hairs on my neck are still standing! Those kids are blessed to play for a man like that! Wow! Good stuff! That coach is what that game is all about!
Negative people are the reason this world is in the shape its in today i am glad to hear this speech even if all the fact were not correct. His job was to motivate the kids and win or lose they were motivated.
You can motivate your team without making up a story. There are plenty of real life stories he can tell without butchering the bible. He meant well, and I am sure most of his players never knew he got it all wrong but that's not the point. It is not being negative to point out when a statement is not true. Are you kidding? The media makes a living out of doing that every day. If people did not demand accuracy then we would really be in a pickle.
This is sports motivation speech 101! Start with an inspirational story. Define how that story applies. Point out the challenges. Point out how challenges will be overcome. Increase volume and time to an explosive finish.
Our god is a GREAT GOD and have faith and GOD can help you win any BATTLE no matter what the Battle... The football game, the National Wrestling Championship. The Super Bowl or Cancer.... NO BATTLE IS TOO BIG....HAVE FAITH...NEVER GIVE UP AND ALWAYS SHOW UP WITH YOUR SWORD.....
I played for Three Rivers around this time this speech was given. I’m a grown 32 year old man and I now realize why they kicked our butt every year. This speech motivated me for the day. God bless!
The head coach on a high school team I coached with before the game would some times add an emotional speech but every game he would say something reminding them of the time, sacrifices, and hard work we all have done to prepaid for this night., Believe in yourself, believe in each other, and believe in your coaches, let's go.
And that is why i love football. Its not the hitting or getting the cheerleaders. Its the heart of the game. Thats why football is attributed to life so often because it coorelates with each other so well. Love it!
this is from samuel 16: the lord sent samuel to Jesse who was the father of David. whom the lord chose over his brothers to be king. great speech and prayer nonetheless. amen!!!
I watch this everyday, and there is something about the energy put into the speech and prayer that keeps me motivated and going. And I'm not a religious person at all. Also, love the Friday Night Lights soundtrack going on in the back.
Lord let us be humble, and close as a team as we huddle together today, we ask that you, with your guiding power, to give us the strength, to withstand injury, and withstand the test, and when the game is over, lord let us know we played our best! always loved the pumped up prayer
Watch this like 10 times today while at work. Speech is like this, given from the heart, with a clear message and believe behind it, is all that you could ever ask for!
watched this on my last game of the season for freshmen and showed other of my teammates and are record was 0-8 but on the last game we won 20 to 0 I guess it was a good motivational speech
Me three! I not only cried, but I got chills up my spine the second that coach initiated his team into a prayer. This is very motivational! Accurate or innacurate, I loved this speech, because he wanted to bring out the very best in his players.
When you say that Im not pushing my beliefs, then you do, to a bunch of young kids and make them believe that god gives a crap if one team of chistians beats another team of christians,,,,you are full of it.
As a football (soccer) coach in the UK, I wish my players could show as much enthusiasm and passion as the players in this video. Sadly, the sport is just not that way. Players are more pampered and used to only praise. They just don't respond in the same way.
Punish them until they see that it’s a privilege playing make them hold 10 minute planks is one falls everyone falls and start all over remind them it’s a game that involves a team there is no I in team
Players and assistant coaches hanging on the Head coaches’ every word. Teenage boys on the cusp of becoming men, leaving their school days behind and moving on to a new chapter in their lives. The sport that brought them all together is likely about to end after the season and they share one more game together as a team. The bond they share is evident in their reaction to the coaches’ words and prayer - this is what sport does, this is the power it has. I would guess that some of them will even have their own families and children now and whatever each of them are doing today I would imagine they often think back to these times and this day and look on it with pride and happiness. The coach seems like an amazing man, his players would have left everything out on the field for him and his team, god bless them all.
There’s just something about the sport of football man. It’s so passionate. I’d say high school football is the most passionate. Sometimes when you hear stuff like this it makes your morrale jump very high and you play like you don’t even care if you would die on the field. You play for your fellow comrades your teammates and coaches.
In the end, when a team creates such a collective mindset during a game, it wins regardless of the score board. That's what's so beautiful about team sports
I love this story! However, David’s dad was Jesse, Samuel was a prophet of God chosen to find Israel next king! Saul was the king and he ruled outside of Gods will! God chose David for his heart and I think that is the core of the story! It’s important to know the story in context and relate it accurately! It’s inspiring to see Coach use scripture but he needs to know the story in full! Knowing about God and the Bible will not get anyone to Heaven. Knowing God personally through Jesus Christ will make all the difference! John 3:16-17!
But he has to teach the right stuff. David was not the son of Samuel, Samuel was never king, and David did not have 8 brothers either. The sentiment was good, but if he needs to tell the story right...ha
Such a powerful LIFE message. 👏 People may not appoint you but God does. He knows our heart. People size us up and look on the outer but God has instilled His life in us, therefore with God's help, we/I CAN do ALL things through Christ which strengtheneh us/me. Hallelujah! Thank you for sharing and inspiring me. He is faithful!
He got the story mixed up a little bit. But dang I am in tears and ready to rock. God is calling all of us to His side. Give us hearts like David. Hearts after God. Fearless in the face of duty.
botched.... who cares...... the reality is this... he had 50 kids eating out of the palm of his hand... he gave them something to believe! 8 years later do you think those kids think of the story or the coach that made them believe they could win!
I played in HS I remember those talks right before game time. However I never seen or heard something like that it was powerful and Deep...Nice job coach...
@@mridge01 It's from Samuel 16: The lord sent Samuel to Jesse, Father of David...He didn't say it quiet correctly, but the spirit of what he meant was there.
Samual was not King David's father. Samuel was a prophet who anointed the first two kings of Israel. He first anointed Saul who later lost power then he annointed David. David's father was Jesse. Matthew 1:6-"Jesse was the father of David the king. David was the father of Solomon by Bathsheba who had been the wife of Uriah."
Joshadow DJ Great job. As soon as he started talking, I started shaking my head. Remember though, Saul had his kingship taken away by God. David was anointed by God long before he was APPOINTED king. He didn't get appointed until Saul killed himself. I am glad someone else out there was actually listening and not deafened by the emotionalism. But on the other hand, the kids didn't know, it! LOL! The great part is that other than that it was a great inspiring speech...
Some of these negative comments.. if you have nothing nice to say LEAVE! This is so much greater than winning the game. So what if they didn't win? It doesn't matter... The beauty of this is that you can feel their emotions, it is chilling. I strongly believe that if you believe in God you already have the greatest advantage. I am an A and B student at a university, I have failed exams that I prayed for... Yet, I failed to study for that particular exam. You cannot depend on everything to be given to you. It is about meeting Him half way, the other team must of just been better and practiced harder. It is what is inside that is rewarding and peaceful. Do not comment on stuff if you're just going to offend me and the other people who have strong faith. Thank you...
Indeed the son of Jesse. And he placed his trust in the lord after the uncircumcised Philistine mocked the people of the lord for multiple days in a row.
damn to be honest i actually got goosebumps during this, i really love football and this is an amazing speech if my coach said this my team would be so pumped!
Tony Arcuri, the guy giving the speech, was also an English teacher at Indian Hill and cheated on his wife with another teacher in the department, that's why he's no longer a teacher at the school or head football coach... Not sure which page of the bible he turned to that morning...
Glad he serves the God that uses broken vessels, the disqualified, unqualified, and unlikely people. David actually had Bathsheeba's husband murdered to have an affair. The choice to throw stones makes us small; choosing to sling them at giants is how to we beat life's Goliaths
To all the know it alls who comment on this video. It doesn't matter if you believe in religion or whether the story is true or not! I dont believe in any religion. The video is about trying to get the kids motivated and pumped up to win. Going off alot of posts they lost the game. So what? They can pick themselves up and go again. Nobody is unstoppable and they will have there time. Back to the point. This video is awesome! !!
Great video! I used to tell my son and daughter Theirs always going to be someone bigger, faster and stronger than you But don’t let anyone out work you!!

Football really is a magical sport man, I don’t think any other sport has this kind of brotherhood. This is just so special

Sometimes when you hear stuff like this it makes your morrale jump very high and you play like you don’t even care if you would die on the field. You play for your fellow comrades your teammates and coaches.

Thinking the same thing 🤔
Yeah. I commented similar above. I am glad this coach opens the bible but he needs to do more than just "pop to a page" I think...ha
Yeah I probably would have ruined the speech, because I would've stopped him right there and corrected him.
It doesn't have to be right, they just have to think it's right.
if they lost they still knew they gave it they're all that day im sure thats what matters
I'm all fired up ready to wreck someone!!! Currently at work at a hospital...I should probably calm down a bit.

I played in HS I remember those talks right before game time. However I never seen or heard something like that it was powerful and Deep...Nice job coach...
This is the best inspirational speech I've ever heard wish our coaches would tell this to our football players or any athletes
Even though he doesn't know what the hell he's talking about. Samuel is David's father?!?!? WTF
@@mridge01 It's from Samuel 16: The lord sent Samuel to Jesse, Father of David...He didn't say it quiet correctly, but the spirit of what he meant was there.
We need more coaches and teachers willing to unapologetically tell their players and students what they believe in and lead by example!!
Idk, "I am a champion " might be the best pre game speech I ever heard.
They are both great 👍
I hope the players repeat this prayer throughout their lives when faced with adversity
"Peace" by Paul Kelly
I hate it when they don’t include the guy playing the soft, building, mood setting guitar in the corner, in the video.
Samual was not King David's father. Samuel was a prophet who anointed the first two kings of Israel. He first anointed Saul who later lost power then he annointed David. David's father was Jesse. Matthew 1:6-"Jesse was the father of David the king. David was the father of Solomon by Bathsheba who had been the wife of Uriah."
Joshadow DJ Great job. As soon as he started talking, I started shaking my head. Remember though, Saul had his kingship taken away by God. David was anointed by God long before he was APPOINTED king. He didn't get appointed until Saul killed himself. I am glad someone else out there was actually listening and not deafened by the emotionalism. But on the other hand, the kids didn't know, it! LOL! The great part is that other than that it was a great inspiring speech...
DAVID .WRIGHT Well said.
Way to ruin the moment....
EVELYNS BABYBOY don't worry about it i thought the Same thing. But i understood he was too in the moment to say Jesse
Everyone knows the bible is full of shit. Not many people even know what it actually says.
I. Truly believe if you have love for the game as a Team and play as One you will be a Champion great pep talk....
Some of these negative comments.. if you have nothing nice to say LEAVE! This is so much greater than winning the game. So what if they didn't win? It doesn't matter... The beauty of this is that you can feel their emotions, it is chilling. I strongly believe that if you believe in God you already have the greatest advantage. I am an A and B student at a university, I have failed exams that I prayed for... Yet, I failed to study for that particular exam. You cannot depend on everything to be given to you. It is about meeting Him half way, the other team must of just been better and practiced harder. It is what is inside that is rewarding and peaceful. Do not comment on stuff if you're just going to offend me and the other people who have strong faith. Thank you...
Just one more. Just one more game . What I wouldn't give to be out there with my team again playing the game that we all love.
David was the son of Jesse.Good speech though.
You’re right, but he really got his point across. Great coach man.
And Saul was the king David was chosen to replace, because of Saul's wickedness and disobedience. Samuel was the prophet God sent to call David.
When he said it, my eyebrows raised in confusion 🤨 but it definitely got me hyped
Also, Samuel was not a king
Indeed the son of Jesse. And he placed his trust in the lord after the uncircumcised Philistine mocked the people of the lord for multiple days in a row.
I love this. People don’t think so but God gets you fired up💪🔥
Wow amazing a true motivator. Got chills
The speech is so powerful I'm literally crying in less than a minute.
damn to be honest i actually got goosebumps during this, i really love football and this is an amazing speech if my coach said this my team would be so pumped!
This gave me cheers jus sent this to my son today is open door for us this is his sr yr
Tony Arcuri, the guy giving the speech, was also an English teacher at Indian Hill and cheated on his wife with another teacher in the department, that's why he's no longer a teacher at the school or head football coach... Not sure which page of the bible he turned to that morning...
Lol...probably whatever book sodom and gomorrah is in 🤣😂🤣😂
Whichever one helped him and his family through that ordeal I hope.
Not everyone is perfect. God forgives and so should you.
Maybe the one that says let he without sin cast the first stone
Glad he serves the God that uses broken vessels, the disqualified, unqualified, and unlikely people. David actually had Bathsheeba's husband murdered to have an affair. The choice to throw stones makes us small; choosing to sling them at giants is how to we beat life's Goliaths
I need to hear the speech after the loss. You know this coach left them with some pure wisdom afterwards.
To all the know it alls who comment on this video.
It doesn't matter if you believe in religion or whether the story is true or not! I dont believe in any religion.
The video is about trying to get the kids motivated and pumped up to win.
Going off alot of posts they lost the game. So what? They can pick themselves up and go again. Nobody is unstoppable and they will have there time.
Back to the point. This video is awesome! !!
“Slaves, submit yourselves to your masters with all respect, not only to the good and gentle but also to the cruel.” (1 Peter 2:18)
Great video!
I used to tell my son and daughter
Theirs always going to be someone bigger, faster and stronger than you
But don’t let anyone out work you!!
Just the funny thought in my head: "And after this speech, they lost the game 0 to 47". Anyone knows how the game went?
No but that ain't the score
Hahaha unfunny unoriginal joke hahaha
@@cooperstowe9318 who you talking to
I saw an old comment saying they lost this game by 3 points but idk if that is factual
They lost 31 to 28 I was there
Coldest part is the coach calming walking away and spitting absolute bars and causing all hell to break loose!
What does he say at the end? i can't understand half of the words with the terrible audio!
My right ear loved this speech
They would go on to lose 72-0 to the team with the D1 players...
Ik it’s a joke but for anyone wondering they actually lost 31-28
And that same night they got destroyed by four touchdowns
fuck off
seheadhunter50 no you fuck off Marge Simpsons admirer
Awesome! You should think that way every day in whatever you do because with the LORD everything is possible!
