Get To Know Coach
1.MY FAVORITE COACH
Tie between Jim Harbaugh and Nick Saban. Coach Harbaugh
because he’s an absolute football nerd and coached UofM to a title recently. Coach Saban is the GOAT and he believes in character and who you are being the most important thing in being a great athlete.
2. My favorite football team
My fantasy football team lol
3. My favorite player of all-time
Jerry Rice. He’s the reason I wanted to play WR when I was
4. My favorite thing about coaching
Helping an athlete maximize the person they are. That’s the best way to maximize the athlete they will be.
5. Best piece of advice ever received
The summer between 9th and 10th grade my Uncle visited and he was a high level athlete in high school and college. He told me to "make sure to remain humble and that fortune favors the prepared”. I know he didn’t realize how much I needed to hear those things. They made me
a better person and thus a better athlete.
6. My favorite game day ritual
Watching action anime and getting a nap!
7. If I wasn’t coaching I’d be doing
A YouTube channel about reading Science-Fiction & Fantasy books

To build resilience for tough time and be humble in the best times.

Pizza!

14. Most Memorable Coaching Moment
The first time I coached anything was when I was in the 9th grade and coached Junior Pro Basketball. We won a Chip and I have lifelong friendships from that team. Players and coaches.
