As a coach or fan, how can you not root for jalen hurts? In a culture of ME and instant gratification, he’s been all about the team and it’s very encouraging, so young guys can see the right example. Class act.

- Why? Three long weeks of work. Boys are tired & ready to compete against someone else. Leaving at 10pm I hear a vacuum. It is a SR, captain, all region returner. Taking care of his 2nd home. That’s why. You know who you are and I love you. Proud coach moment. @CBHS_Football
- Coach Prime showing me some love! 😍😍 check the post. 👇🏼👇🏼 Humbling but awesome I can’t lie. @CBHS_Football
- Not in my comfort zone but...anyone that knows me probably has met my dad, Thomas. Huge CBHS fan, and whole heartedly believes I’m the best coach ever🤷🏼♂️ 🤦🏻♀️. He’s batting several med issues and needs many prayers. Much appreciated.
- I love you Dad. You introduced me to the world’s greatest game. You coached me. You cheered for me. The lights were a bit dimmer tonight, but I’m so happy you’ve gotten the reward of an eternal life. Thank you for being the best dad a wild, stubborn boy could ever wish for.

- Jessica and I received a wonderful Christmas gift tonight. Emma Lou and Vivian both were baptized. Very grateful.
- On the most successful teams the best players are held to a high standard. Also the best players want to be coached hard and demand everyone’s best on a daily basis, not just on days when you’re feeling good. Consistently striving for greatness never gets old. #ReachHigher18
- CBHS vs MUS. This is a game of respect built on a rivalry established in 1894. It is about more than two school separated by a few miles. Generations of young men dream of playing in… instagram.com/p/BpJ7Jk4gQGC/…
- Regardless of opinions, Contracts, etc. anyone who loves the game of football knows that Friday nights are for high school athletes to live out their dreams. I’m a huge college fan every Saturday. Friday nights= high school > college
