Walked into my office this morning and found this!!!! Love these guys! Guess this is what happens when you open the weightroom on your anniversary!

My purpose isn’t to win or even play games. My purpose is to be thankful for today. Thankful for the opportunity to spend the day with my team. Thankful for the opportunity to learn how to be tougher, grittier, and compassionate.

Proud to announce that our football team was recently selected as one of the top academic teams in the state by the Ohio High School Football Coaches Association. Grades matter!

Playing multiple sports is critical in today’s schools. Never had a college coach walk our hallways recruiting a player because he specialized in a sport. Play sports. Have fun. Work relentlessly at getting better in the classroom! Not a hard concept.

Good luck to
@Enders42
tonight as he and his
@ToledoFB
teammates take on Bowling Green tonight! Game is at 8:00pm on ESPNU. Very proud of Alex. He WILL be on the field of play tonight. This guy has earned it and I am excited for him to get to play again.
This was one heck of a team. They played for one another and played through adversity. They didn’t skip offseason lifting at all. They didn’t have to be told to practice hard. They hit and tackled everything. They ran the ball with violence.

Watched about every tape from the last decade multiple times this break. Reoccurring theme was that 2017 team was flat nasty! Extremely tough group of kids! Brothers for life! If you moved on the field vs. that team, you got struck!

Tonight was special for me! Love those kids! After 11 years of being a Head Coach and nearly 100 wins.... nothing tops seeing my players tonight. Connection that is firm and will never be lost.

A few stud college athletes getting after it today! Love when our football alumni come back home! Weightroom works for those who put the Consistent time into it!
Shout out to our freshman football team. They are doing awesome the first 2 days. Been excited to see 21 outstanding freshman show up and work. Bring energy tomorrow!

Been extremely blessed to coach so many fine young men. Watching the 22nd PHS student-athlete in the past 10 years to sign to play college football this morning was awesome! Love seeing our guys continue to take advantage of opportunities in college football
Congrats to my longtime assistant coach and best friend for attacking a new professional challenge. Enjoyed the time we spent pushing each other to be the best. No one can take away what we all accomplished together! Good luck at Highland!
