Please take a moment and send your prayers out to Kennedy High School and the family of Emmanuel βMannyβ Antwi.Manny collapsed Friday night during Kennedyβs game against Johnson.Manny, passed away sometime Friday night at the hospital. Manny was a 18 year old, senior lineman. ππΎ
So let's address the elephant in the room. High School Football is not College Football. A Varsity HS player, at any level (D 1-7) rushing for 2,000 yards or getting 5 INT's in a season is a huge accomplishment. We have to stop minimizing the achievements of these young men. π§΅
I think this is ridiculous and an exercise in "Classism" by lawmakers. It's an attempt to keep children from low economic communities, especially those of color, from using football as the catalyst to elevate their lives to a higher level. This is not about head injuries.
Hey Coaches in the @cifsjs Would you be open to getting together a couple of times, this off-season, for food, fun & fellowship? We pick a spot (restaurant or bar), pick a time and date & simply come together to talk shop, offer support & share knowledge. Thoughts? π
Watching this ASU versus Texas playoff game should be a great example to recruiters. After rushing for 4,000 yards his senior year @camskattebo5 had only one offer out of Rio Linda High School, @SacHornetsFB Does this young man look like a one offer player?
I am so very proud of @furly3k & his commitment to @Utah_Football Iβve known this young man since he was knee high to a shoe fly. Extremely hard worker, very high character & amazing athlete. Skyβs the limit for him. Also congrats to his father @WilsonRompcoach for his commitment
