Long time no see Coach, i appreciate all your teachings and tips for us players. I got a Quaterback spot on my team and working towards getting better every week. Me and this other guy are still fighting for the 2nd string position and we will have our first JV Game to prove on Saturday.
Once again thanks Coach
No problem bro- keep me posted on how the season goes!
Thanks coach, im 8th grade but ill keep this in mind when I go into my freshman year.
Yessir will definitely help!
Thanks coach, your videos helped me so much, and now I'm starting Varsity.
Awesome to hear man! Really grateful for the support and I’m glad the videos were able to help you
Great tips coach. Looking forward to meeting you in Philadelphia
Appreciate you! Thank you very much for watching and the support- see you guys this weekend
I’m in 9th grade and just finished my first high school season. We finished 9-0 but I didn’t get moved up to JV for the rest of the season. I was kinda bummed but not surprised because I’m super small to be our starting guard. The second string got moved up though😢
Sorry to hear man, grind this off season. You have a ton of time to make varsity
Hey coach I am going to San Francisco in 2024 for one of your camps. I am looking forward to meeting with you and learning new drills to improve my craft
I appreciate that a lot man! Pumped to meet you as well- thank you for signing up
Great advice coach
Appreciate you man hope this can help!
Could you make a video on some route running/ agility drills specifically for routes a rb would have? I'm personally a fullback and would like to run better routes. Thanks
Yeah absolutely- I’m not an RB specific guy but I can teach the routes. Thank you for the feedback
just practice routes on an empty field
Thanks I have tryouts today
Yessir hope this could help you!
Thanks coach, that explains quite a bit. Just wondering if you think it is worth it for me to train hard and try to play football at one of the local public schools. Since our school doesn't have football, do you think I would be able to get a starting position if I'm not really from that school?
Yeah absolutely man, I definitely think that would be worth it!
thank u
Hey coach I have a question I’m a quarterback in high school and the thing I struggle with the most is when I throw on the run with a receiver running a 3 yard drag or slant I always end up throwing it at their feet any tips for me to fix this??
I think just throw it higher, I think ur estimation of ball distance isn’t that good which causes u to throw it low. It may feel like it’s going to go right over the receiver, but throwing it high will prob land it right there
Try to really focus on your release point. I tell my guys “pretend you picked your nose and you are trying to flick a booger at the target” it’s a little weird but trust me it helps. On the run your wrist flick AKA extension point is everything
Thanks for your videos. Does playing at a weaker high school football program lower a students odds of getting a scholarship compared to if they play at a stronger program? If that player performed the same at both the weak and strong high school.thanks
The stronger high school, usually has more college attention so it can definitely help. But, some bigger schools don’t have any college attention. So it just usually depends on how well connected the high school head coach is
Thanks for the info Coach I’m heading into my 8th grade year and can really go to any high school in NC I want but I don’t know how to figure out which school I will start on varsity the fastest how can I figure this out?
And how can I know which schools get looked at the most?
What I recommend is going where you have the most well connected head coach. If the school has a tradition of getting guys to the next level- that coach will know tons of college coaches and that’s how the recruiting process starts. It’s all about relationships, pick the school with the coach who has the best relationships
@@firstdowntraining thank you so much.
Does this apply to JV trying to make Varsity as well
Yes absolutely!
Thanks
No problem man hope this can help!
hey coach can you tell me a website with good football equipment for wide receivers that is also affordable for low income families???
Eastbay is a good website- they have a lot of options
So coach, what if I do all of this but the coaches still don’t put me in during reps at practice? Do they just glaze other players or do they just not like me
Well I would ask 3 questions- do you know your playbook? Have you missed any practice? Do you do the little things when nobody is watching? If you answer yes to all of those then I’d say your time is coming. If one is a no, that’s a good reason as to why. Idk your coaches so I can’t pass perfect judgment on the situation but that’s what I’d say
Get on special teams and make plays. Especially if you play defense
100% especially in college that’s how a lot of guys make the team
@@firstdowntraining that’s exactly how I made the team at cornerback
@@ceejay7803I’m pretty slow though
Coach Grant I understand you say show up to everything. What is your thoughts about academics programs the kid is in? Should the player be penalized?
It’s a tough call, while academics are important it kind of depends on the coach. Where I played in high school, which was one of the biggest high schools in California, we did not miss for anything. If it was grades related we still got benched for missing… was it the best thing to teach, probably not. But everyone on our team was eligible to play because they were there to play football. Never had any issues- but I think if the coach is fine with it then it should be fine. But obviously clear it with him first
Coach is it possible to walk on juco with no film due to injuries
Yes. You can go to an open tryout and if you do well you will make a spot.
Yeah absolutely
I am mad because they cancelled my travel team and now I only get to play 6 games I and I will only get to play 1 half because I school won't let us do a b team
Sorry to hear man, just keep working. At your age it’s all about developing
