If schools are opened without sports and activities, be prepared for the lowest scores & effort from our students. Most kids dont go to school for math or english class. I was one of these students, activities and sports kept me in school and engaged.

- Our teachers union wants us to wear red a shirt on Thurs to bring attention to our contract negotiations.Forget them,I'm going to wear my coaching polo,to bring attention to the fact that coaches have not gotten a base raise since the 1980s.Chew on that!!! #RepresentUsAll
- unpopular take in todays politics: Although I don't agree with anything in his agenda. I still hope Pres. Biden is successful. It means that America is successful. I still pray for our leaders, it doesn't matter who they are. He is my President. why? because I'm American
- She came into the living room this morning and sat down with it. A Coaches family would only understand. #FatherofDaughters #family
- Sigh....trash left by new Freshman football players. Lessons need to be taught.
- Replying to @LenhartGarryTotally disagree and it's disingenuous to put"fear, blame, shame, degradation, or self-loathing" w/yelling.I've seen the same thing from "soft spoken" coaches who play the same mental games. Its all based on relationships, kids can take it when they know the heart it comes from
- I’m going to ramble for a second. Tonight was my 100 win as a head coach. 15 years as a HC with 3 different programs. But milestones like these take a bunch of coaches, kids, parents, admin to believe in me. From East high where I won 6 games in three years. 1/10
- Replying to @amaniimusicOk I'm going scientific... the triangle cut, is cut on the corner of the bread. Corners are always a strong point in a structure. Therefore less creasing and squishing of your sandwich, when cutting...... boooooommmmmm
- If I'm a parent of a senior or a junior athlete in california, I'm looking for options in nevada and Arizona or family in a state that has common sense. This state is ran by idiots.
- Very proud of the way my AD handled this whole thing and how my staff handled it after the game. I’ve watched my boys over come so much on the field and off the field, so proud of who they are as young men. Always and forever love my guys.
- If you are in education and think school should go back to distant learning and asymptomatic kids should be tested, quit your job...you hate kids.
- Whatever happens happens, those in charge just need to do the right thing. But more importantly, I’m so proud and love my boys so much. God has blessed me with 2 daughters, but he also blessed me with 32 sons. God is good all the time.
- If today is the only day you do something special for your significant. You are failing. Notes, occasional flowers, a nice gift. Should be year around.
