“Kids haven’t changed. We’ve changed as adults. We demand less of kids. We expect less of kids. We make their lives easier instead of preparing them for what life is truly about. We’re the ones that have changed.” – Frank Martin #txhsfb

- 102 out of 106 (96%) football players on Super Bowl LII team rosters participated in “multiple sports” during High School. #txhsfb
- I see a lot of coaches that do a lot of yelling and screaming and try to command authority. Authority comes through respect. Good coaches gain the respect of young people by being truthful and real with them. -David Cutcliffe #txhsfb
- Whether it’s coaches or teachers, we’re the last frontier of teaching them in all categories. We’re fighting the fight of making sure they can go out and compete in life. -Gary Patterson #TXHSFB
- “Teach the fundamentals, because they show up in the most critical times in the game” - Matt Patricia New England Patriots DC #TXHSFB
- “You don’t have to have the best players to win, you got to have the best TEAM to win.” Coach Jeff Monken after Army’s bowl victory vs. Houston.#txhsfb
- “One of the biggest mistakes coaches make is over-tweaking the playbook. They mess themselves up by constantly tinkering and putting too much in. It’s not about tricks. It’s about execution.” – Mike Leach #TXHSFB
- “Football isn’t for everybody. But, the lessons it’ll teach you, the sacrifices that you make, the way you discipline yourself to give everything you’ve got, you can use those tools to be successful in life regardless of what you do.” -Mike Tomlin (Pittsburgh Steelers) #txhsfb
- Flash doesn’t win games. Hype doesn’t win games. Going out and executing and doing your job on a consistent basis is what wins. -Clay Helton
