The average person/fan will never have a clue what goes through the mind of a coach during the Star Spangled Banner before a game. Such a powerful moment that is unique to each coach. There are many that will get emotional just thinking about it.
If I had one wish as a high school coach it would be that every high school athlete understood and accepted the work and preparation that goes into being great. Many say they want it, but only a few approach it as if they can’t live without it.
George Kittle was asked how he’s been able to get more explosive as he gets older:
“Train your ass off and be faster than everybody else. I attack every offseason, I attack every day like I’m getting ready for a game. Every time I run routes in the offseason with Brock Purdy in Nashville, I’m running each rep like it’s a 3rd or a 4th down that I have to make a play on. So by developing that mindset, working at a very high level, allows me to be a very good football player.”

I may be wrong but I don’t think these things are only valued by the Gators 🐊. You want to be recruited? Better self check and see if you carry any of these red flags 🚩
New Florida head coach Jon Sumrall has a few major red flags that are complete non-starters for him in recruiting.
Most of them come down to a player’s love for football and their overall character.
This is what he said⬇️

Amen!! Couldn’t say it any better!
We are going to see soon that 1000s of players made mistakes. Coach nails it. Stop worrying about a check. Start enjoying life. Most of those in the portal just made their college experience more expensive and many just ended theirs.View quoted post on X
