Coached youth football, high school football, taught, coached track, did homework at ballparks on the weekend with my kids all while trying to set an example for the kids I encounter.

Just a reminder that we as dads can push our boys to the limit and train them all we want, at the end of the day, nothing moves without Mom!
This moment. She’d been struggling at the plate. Bases loaded with 1 out, in the semifinals of the state championships. Got a 2B after fouling off 10 pitches that tied the game. She poured into tears on 2nd base and rushed me with the same emotion afterwards!

A relationship that goes back over 21 years now when we first met as teammates and being wild freshmen at DSU. So glad my guy is back in the Sip! The stories we could tell for days! Proud of ya,

@KarlousM
Funniest thing ever...We were eating at a restaurant last weekend and this older guy was going to pay and outta nowhere he just asked a worker “y’all got a lot of dishes back there?” I was crying laughing!!! That’s the exact look he had! 🤣🤣🤣
A lot of my homeboys I grew up with wanted street nicknames from the old heads…I was chasing another nickname; COACH! Just a kid from Marks, MS who’s living out his dream!

14 years ago, God gave us, at the time, our biggest blessing. Couldn’t have asked for a better son than the one I have. Help me wish my kid,
@marcusjr1005
, a very Happy Birthday!! Continue to be great in everything you do! Love you to life and beyond!!! 🖤🖤
@AfricanArchives
This moment still inspires me. Standing up for your kid when they need you instead of hanging your child out to dry. Kids sometimes don’t see what we as adults can see, and that’s why we have to control their environment while their young.

Woke up yesterday in a hotel to my kids telling me happy Father’s Day and hugging me. My son hit a homerun and wanted me to have the ball as a gift. Couldn’t ask for better kids than the ones God has blessed me with! 🙏🏾⚾️
Officially, the fastest middle schooler in the county, 1st place with an 11.70! So proud of you,

Also got a PR on long jump with 20’6”. This is just the beginning!

Here are some things I “GET TO” do today:
Start the day off teaching
Call kids by their names in the hallways & on my duty post
Get kids 1% better in football
Coach Track!!
Parent meeting after track
Come home and brag about my day
@RolandusCox
I GET TO instead of have to! 🙌🏾
So absolutely proud of these two! Making their own way by setting and achieving high goals along the way. JR got to play in his first varsity game and Makayla reached a personal best, 57mph on the mound at 11 years old! True example of hard work paying off!

My baby has been making and packing my lunch lately, and she left me this note. She has such a big heart. So thankful to God for blessing me with the daughter that I have, the best ever!

Good coaching clip right here. Had every reason not to hustle. Instead, he ran over, delivered a big blow, and kept 6 points off the board! Well done Will Parks!
So very proud of these two. Both were in Arkansas about 45 minutes from each other. Baby girl is getting stronger on the mound while Big bro is handling business at the plate with 2 HR’s on the weekend!

It always makes it better after a tough loss having your family to greet you. Today, we’ve made it to 10 years of marriage. There’s been ups and downs but we’re still here! Happy Daughter’s Day too!
#GirlDad
Seeing my grandmother’s physical face for the last time yesterday caused all kinds of physical and emotional pains like I hadn’t felt in a long time. Today also marks the 19th anniversary of my grandfather’s death. Trying to find peace in knowing they’re reunited..🥺😢
On this day 12 years ago, God blessed us with our first child. I still remember crying tears of joy when I held him for the first time. Anyone who knows me knows that majority of my time is spent with him. Happy Birthday son, love you dearly!
My page will be flooded today with our first born,
@marcusjr1005
‼️ He’s 15 years old! So proud of the young man you’re becoming and thankful to God I get to share this journey of life with you. Happy Birthday to you son, love you to life and beyond!!
Really hate I missed this moment, but my mom got to see my baby play for the 1st time in a couple years due to her bout with cancer. Fully vaccinated and cancer free! Baby girl also pitched her 1st No Hitter!!

The fastest 24 hours between Friday and Saturday were well worth it. Had to make a quick turnaround trip from Atlanta yesterday to see my baby. We’ve been so blessed to have such a beautiful daughter! Her 1st school dance. 🥺🙌🏾
It always hurt seeing kids give their all and come up short. Fighting thru adversity consistently and being the foundational piece for your program is a lot to deal with for seniors, but this group is laying the foundation of how ball will be played at

Love these kids so much. They work so hard in practice and we have a lot of fun together! Lots of PR’s set this past weekend and plenty more to go! Shout out to the talented Caleb Douglas for his work with the camera 🔥

The game of baseball will beat you mentally and physically. Had a pretty good talk w/ my son about him feeling like he’s let his team down because it’s the 3rd time he’s been at the plate with the game on the line & he couldn’t get it done. Had to let him know…
So proud of our Baby Girl! The fact that she’s even being mentioned and recognized with some of these players by coaches is a huge blessing. Competing at the highest level as a 12 year old isn’t bad either. Keep striving for greatness, Makayla!! 🫶🏾🙌🏾
#noexcuses
If you’re coaching a 7 on 7 org or team, please keep in mind that some of the athletes you have are also running track. Please don’t guilt them into choosing. Most college football coaches want to know what their times & measurements are too! Thanks in advance~ Track Coaches 🫡
His season was cut short last year and he couldn’t walk off the field on his own, so he did the rehab and put in the work needed to get back to where he wanted to be. Words can’t express how proud we are. I’m hard on him because I know what he’s capable of!

Big week in store for the Jamison household! These two get to try out for the School/Team they’ve been rooting for since they were toddlers. Definitely an emotional & proud time! Good luck Makayla and JR! Good luck to everyone else as well!

This kid was so excited this morning, even though his face says otherwise (guess he’s locked in). He’s been wanting to put on that Jaguars jersey since he 1st started playing at 5. Today is the day! Time has flown by and I couldn’t be more excited for him!

These two have been friends since the 1st grade! My son kept raving about how Zack helped him with his lunch! Thank you also to the entire staff at

Capped off a great birthday weekend with a championship. He left the ball park saying they could’ve played even better. Love his competitive drive.

Got there a little late, but just in time. This kid has spent his entire childhood anxious to play on this field. Everything was so surreal. Definitely turned into an emotional night for our family being on the visitor’s side. So good seeing everyone!
Basketball season is still top priority, but you have to stay steady at working on your craft for the game of baseball. *don’t own the rights to this music*

One of my most powerful moments in sports. My mom, who is battling cancer, got a chance to walk out onto the field with my son last weekend as an honorary captain. She gave her testimony to the team after the game. I fought back tears the entire ceremony!
#KeepFighting
Hitters:
Never TRY to get hits...
EXPECT to get hits!
Never TRY to hit it hard...
EXPECT to hit it hard!
Never TRY to battle & compete...
EXPECT to battle & compete!
And when EXPECTATION turns into failure...
Always EXPECT success & EXPECT 2 dominate the next time!

Been up and anxious for a while already. Big weekend of ball for my kids. They both Hydrated well and went to bed early last night to ensure they’re ready. Can’t wait to watch my 9’s!

I remember my last conversation I had with my Grandad and I still remember the news I got on my way back from a Spring Break trip 20 years ago to date; that pain will never go away. I miss you so much and promise to continue your legacy!

As coaches sometimes the smallest things mean the most to us. Hearing a couple of well-respected coaches tell me yesterday that our kids are disciplined and respond great to coaching made my day. We’re so grateful because the kids put in the work & want to be coached!

So proud of my baby girl. Dizzy Dean 6u World Series Champs! First thing she said after the game was “daddy we did it like

Today marks 1 year without my favorite person, my Grandma. This was our last pic together, and I still wish I had taken the time to take more. If you’re thinking about calling or seeing a loved one, just do it; they’re going away fast!
This is spot on! If the stands aren’t filled, you’re messing with money, and that spark has to be re-lit somehow. It’s not fair, but it is the business.
Often times, the AD at your school firing your coach doesn't actually think the next guy can do better.
But he knows you won't keep donating and buying season tickets to support the same thing your school has been for 50 years.
On restarting the cycle of hype & hope.
Gone from 6:00am till 1:00am. Had to clear out the entire day yesterday free from football and school work to watch my baby girl do what she loves to do. She ended up pitching Two No-Hitters on the day!

When I tell you this one and I go wayyy back, that’s even an understatement. I trust you with my son and you most definitely took care of him like he was your own. You are the reason the brother, the reason for it all. Thanks for everything! All love
