What a hire for Kent State Football I’ve been fortunate enough to be friends with Jake Niedermann since college & was lucky enough to have him on staff here Elon Sports Performance he was an integral part of building this program These student-athletes are going to be in great hands!

In 2022 my goal was to read 2 books a month. Here is the order I ranked them based on how impactful and enjoyable they were to me. In 2023 my goal is to read less volume of books but dive deeper into specific topics each month.

Dedicated to development Proud to have been with some of the best in the field. Our program would not be where it is without these people and more #alumnispotlight #phoenixinthefield #forgedinfire #phoenixrising

Cal DB Daniel Scott nearly comes down with the INT. Good job breaking after reading the QB

Some clips from the week with Calvary Football. A lot can get accomplished in 35-45 mins when you build an environment of habits of trust & high effort.

Bang Bang Niner Gang! Nash has big news to share… We have accepted a position with the San Francisco 49ers Organization as an Assistant Strength & Conditioning Coach. “Go after a dream that’s destined to fail unless God intervenes!”

If I had to pick a theme for my 2023 readings it would be Faith-Family-Football!

This past week we referenced the 8-Vector System on how we can design field work sessions that help prepare our bodies in a sports-specific manner to absorb and redirect force in all directions.
