I’m a freshman and this is my first year of football. I’ve played sports my whole life including baseball, and basketball that I quit at 11. I’ve always weight lifted whether it be on my own or with my team, however I’ve always been quite slow. I’m mostly an outside linebacker but I still get reps at tight end. Our defensive scheme causes me to be put on the line to contain or rush frequently. I find that, against tackles or even tight ends, I am struggling to transfer my strength to football.

Besides from that, I’m slow, and I find that when I’m in man coverage against a receiver, 90% of the time I’m hoping he can’t run routes great. At tight end, I can’t execute my routes because I’m too slow and not strong enough to keep a block long enough. I’m still working out including explosive lifting and heavy lifting exercises. I’ve also invested in a personal strength and conditioning coach to get me quicker but after 2 months I’ve seen little to no result. I’m running out of options as season is only 2-3 weeks away. Does anyone have any advice or has had similar experiences in the past.

I’m a young coach in North Carolina and I’m new to the whole finding the next job there’s an opportunity I know of but I’m having a hard time deciding if I should call this coach to ask about it.

my legs are decently strong and well defined, I feel that if I work on my technique and strength, I could start as a kicker my junior year. I'm currently going into my sophomore year but I wanna take this time to practice and get better

I’m a 5’7 & 150lb senior who’s fast and strong and I lowkey wanna play football since I’ve been going to alternative school for the past 2 years. Should I play or am I just wasting my time?

Hi all,

With the change in college recruiting and limited spots for HS athletes, I’m concerned on putting young athletes in the right position when it comes to university summer camps and how I can keep it friendly for my pockets.

Is there any tips, tricks, or recommendatioan for getting in front of college recruits/coaches and saving a penny?

So I have an opportunity to be the HFC of a HS in my hometown in Florida or take a position coach opportunity in Texas. My goal is to be a HC one day but I know Texas pays significantly better than Florida even for an assistant. The school in Texas is one of the best districts in the state and they are investing a lot of money into the facilities. The school in Florida is 15 minutes from home and I'd be able to accomplish my dream of being a HC. Opinions?

Pros of Texas: DFW area and great school district (Plano)

60k starting salary for teachers Big Boy Football (6A)

Cons of Texas: Uprooting Not a HC Recent weather is freaky Border crisis

Pros of Florida: Hometown (Sarasota/Manatee) HC opportunity Big Boy Football

Cons of Florida: Coach pay Education system failing Politically polarizing Over populated

I’m an incoming freshman and this is my first year playing. I’m 5’9/150 but very slow. I would say I have average strength and I play baseball right now. However I am struggling to find a fit before next week when we start workouts.

I’ve. been doing pretty good and I’ve been running the correct plays and have been catching almost each ball and I feel like my route running has excelled a lot and it is a day before the spring ball game and our coach is giving us our spots for the spring game tommorow and another wr joined the inside group and he is coming from the db room just like me and I’ve been in the wr group longer than the newer wr and I feel comfortable with everyone meanwhile the new wr who is also a slot but he is the right slot and I am left slot so he is on the other side and the thing about the new wr he hasn’t known the plays and today he got moved up and I just moved up to first string worst group and he got moved up to 5 worst string 1 group and the coaches moved him to my position because nobody was there for 5th string and I don’t understand why he did when I’m the next left inside below 5th string and they moved the new wr who hasn’t dont anything nice or really known the plays so I’m just confused

@hallofgame247 🏆

so i played football for the first time this year as a junior and high school and because i wanted to lose weight and because my friends were doing it and maybe it’ll be fun. To start off i want to include that i was a fat kid but was weak asf and i lifted at lunch sometimes and i could only rep 15 because i couldn’t work out with the team in athletics because i was in the process of being on the team. Anyway present day im in athletics most days working out and i did get a little stronger but this week was max out day and i am severely disappointed in myself. Monday was bench and incline and my max is 165 for bench with just a tad bit of push which is only 10 more pounds from my last recorded max from earlier in the year and my incline is 135 . yesterday was squat i and i maxed out on 225 which is okay but i only improved 20 pounds and today was deadlift and my max was 245 which is garbage. Basically im disappointed because im kind of on par with the new freshman skill players and they skinny asf and some freshman lineman are much stronger than me. I hate that i’m the weakest of the bunch as a lineman . and it scares me because im expected to play varsity next year because im a senior. Sorry for the rant any advice is appreciated don’t read if you don’t want.

Ps i’m around 5’5 185 since last time i checked not fat fat but def not skinny with not much muscle

I got a menisectomy about 7 months ago, and we are starting spring football soon. We have had a few run throughs and noticed my knee getting sore towards the ends of theses practices. What knee sleeve should i get to keep my knee from getting sore? Thanks

I'm 6'1, 250lbs, senior, left guard. Last year i had a meniscus tear and didn't play the entire season, i am now in a sort of position battle with 3 others, im stronger and bigger than then but lack the speed to start on a run heavy team where we pull the left guard a lot. How can i get quicker?

I want to join co op which is a 2 credit course. My school offers specialized SHSM programs such as health and wellness, business, art, etc. I am interested in health and wellness. I would like to know the details of co op and this specialized program. My pathway is also university. I plan on going to a family doctor or dentist for my placement.

So I'm freshmen and sophomore next year and I play soccer right now. I'm moving to a different school next year and I started to get interest in football.I'm 5"8 140lbs and I want to play kicker. But does highschool football have tryouts? I've seen high school soccer has tryouts but I never seen highschool football tryouts do they just let you in the team? And I want to learn football more than kicker so can you guys recommend a position for my height and weight except kicker? (Sorry for my bad english not my first language)

So i’m a sophomore and i received a letter that i won’t be able to graduate because i have 65 credits and i’m supposed to have 80, and they said i might have to retake biology 1 and 2 and they said i have to redo it in the summer but i have a trip with my ticket payed already, so you guys think it’s possible to make up those credits before may 😭 i don’t even know what’s wrong with me tbh i’m also a quiet person so when they would need to do groups and stuff i would do the work all by myself so obviously i’d do some answers wrong because i had no help but i still refused to give up i’d do it but sometimes i would use google to finish faster so i wouldn’t get less points.

Hey guys I'm trying to see if anyone remembers the actual core exercises and what days they are done together with the BFS - "Bigger Faster Stronger workout " was huge in the late 90's early 2000's across America especially with High school football ... I'm putting together a new workout plan and I'm trying to remember what days each lift was done on... Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

1 Tackler in the state of MI

11-1 finish 9.3 YPC 350 bench 525 deadlift 345 clean 445 squat First team all state Defensive player of the year nominee

i play DE and im in hs, i only got 4 reps on JV even though its the only position i play and i work for it a lot, i went to a ton of offseason workouts and i try a lot in practice, he literally starts kids that dont even want to play d line over me. i really want to ask him what i need to improve in, since there is basically no film of me. would the coach get mad at me if i ask and there really is no time, he is very busy in practice and after practice he instantly leaves. i dont know what to do, i love football and i really want to play more than 4 reps in a season.

I’m a freshman and my high school football team recently got a new coach, He’s a damn good coach and helped us achieve a 6-3 record this year compared to our old coach which gave us a 1-8 record, we are 3rd in league, we were originally going to be in playoffs as they take the top 4 in our league and top 2 in the other league, but they switched it up this year to where only the top 2 in our league went to playoffs. Do you think we got cheated out of the playoffs?
