We crashed the Open Division party,worked out just as it should have,we felt we were one of the 4 best teams in the county!The football gods wanted to see the Torrey vs San Marcos game finished! Gonna be a great game against a fantastic Torrey Pines team!How bout that 🥑 league
6 yrs ago today, we defeated Helix in an epic CIF Open Division Final in Coach Carroll’s final year! How’s that for a DLine, Amadeo West, Nick Zimmerman, Jamie Harris and Tommy Woo! And my brother

I don’t need to put my business all over twitter for people to know what I’ve done for kids that I’ve coached... they all know I got their back to the end and I did my best to get their name out! That’s real! I cry every year when my seniors leave me! It’s about relationships
What a great game... congrats to
@rcg999
and the Falcons! That was what it was billed out to be, a heavyweight bout! Get it done for the 🥑 What an incredible effort by our San Marcos Knights, be proud and hold your heads high

For the last 19 years I’ve held 2 jobs to support my family and coached at 2 of the best programs in SD! I can proudly say the only day of practice I’ve missed was when my daughter was born!We talk about how important it is to show up to practice!
#LeadByExample
Man I miss working for this man, taught me the most important lesson ever! A good coach knows X’s and O’s, a great coach builds relationships with his kids and will be there for them on and off the field!

I saw
@elibechtel18
on Tuesday for the first time at practice! He walked up to shake my hand and I thought Coach Carroll hired a new Coach without informing me… kid is a specimen!
And a yes sir no sir kid! Excited to work with him!

I love
@SanMarcosFBall
and I promise you guys I will work my ass off to finish what we started! That goes for all of our coaches... we are good because we have great kids that love each other and that fight for each other!

super proud of him!
Love my San Marcos boys but miss my Cbad boys… all love always. We are building something special at SM but will always have love for my Cbad Fam, they were really good to me! Will root for them every week except one!
After a crushing loss last Friday, my old boss that I love... the goat 🐐 Coach Carroll was there to comfort me with some words of wisdom and tell me that he was proud of me! Meant so much to me!
I ran into this cool picture of our Pirates during the National Anthem before we took Helix on in the Open Final in 2014! It was my last year at Oceanside, what an incredible, overachieving team that was! The atmosphere was electric, it was so loud in the stadium that night!
All my Latino/Hispanic coaches that follow me,we gotta do better for our kids.They are the true minorities in this great game I love,and we got some ballers!Ive been blessed to work with some of the best in the biz, 🐐 Carroll,Texler,McNeal and Tom Carroll. Dm me,lets do better
@Daygofootball
Oceanside is a public school that has won with homegrown kids... I am very proud to be a branch in Coach Carroll’s coaching tree! They are the standard for SD football!!!!!
Coach Texler is the best offensive mind in North County and Coach Carroll reminds me so much of his dad! Love what is happening at San Marcos!
#GoKnights
I get to coach these incredibly hard working kids! They are so fun to be around and I am in awe and inspired by their work ethic and respect they have been taught over the years at Cbad! Everything is Yes Coach or Yes Sir!
#LetUsPlay
This was not an easy day, but grateful for Nick’s family honoring me by asking me to speak! He was a special young man and I will forever miss him! Love you Nick!

love you guys and thanks for being there for our kids today!
The GOAT Coach Carroll taught us that to be a successful coach, you had to build relationships with your players and live for them and not through them! I’ve never forgotten that!!! My players have always known I’ve had their backs to the end!
Hard fought win for my boys against a talented El Camino team! Incredible defensive performance... we are so young and getting better every week!

These kids led us defensively all night long
@JTDOZIER
causing 3 turnovers and making plays all over the field, inside backers Mitch and Nick making countless tackles and
@quinn_roff
in the Qb’s face all night long creating havoc!
I really miss coaching, my life feels incomplete! A year ago today I was getting maybe 2 hrs of sleep a night, watching hours upon hrs of film getting our SM kids ready to take on Oside. I’m getting plenty of sleep now and I’m crankier!
#INeedFootball
When you’re getting off the bus and you have kids so exhausted that they have to gather energy just to walk to the locker room, that’s when you know our boys left it all on the field as the saying goes!

Big game this week! It’s Discovery Bowl time! Go support your Knights as they take on the Grizzlies of Mission Hills! Shout out Kiki

That Cbad team is gonna be a problem, they have an outstanding head coach and staff. Something to be said about homegrown kids that will do anything for each other. Loved my time there, I’m an old dog, but I picked up some new tricks that I’m applying to our SM boys!
Congratulations to my seniors on graduating today! I will forever be grateful for what you guys did for our program. Love you guys!

Our season came to an end, but I am so proud of how hard our kids fought! We were so short handed, playing many backups and JV kids and never quit!

Went by my family’s house Coach Macs today to deliver some fresh made shrimp ceviche for Christmas!
Truly was an honor to work for such a great man! Side note, not looking forward to defending him, he is an elite play caller!

Carlsbad defense gave up 28 yards on 22 rushing attempts! 14 yds we’re on 1 run when we were putting our hard working kids in that deserved to play! Pretty solid night!!!

!These guys are special to me! They proved that hard working kids that love and believe in each other can play with and beat anybody!
#GoKnights
Just wanted to let coaches know that when you teach your offensive lineman to grab a kids jersey and throw him on the ground, then flop on top of him after you threw him down… it’s a penalty. Stop teaching that, I’m tired of seeing it! Coach better than that!
Thankful to God for the opportunity to play D1 level college football. Special big thanks to my family and all my Coaches. I would like to announce my commitment to further my education and football career at San Jose State University

Here’s a few more pictures of my grandson! Big ol 9 LB baby! My daughter said I have to quit coaching when he’s old enough to play! I don’t know about that, that’s what I am and that’s what I love! I can’t wait to train him though!

There is a clip where he literally benches the Tackle into the QB, then sacks him👀😨
I was a good player, but an insanely hard hitter!I knew my place on my team.I will say this will full confidence,I am the best at what I do coaching wise! Kids that play for me can attest to that. I refuse to get our kids fake offers because it’s not fair to them. Love our kids
@Daygofootball
Our Oceanside team was phenomenal in Coach Carroll final year. We played without Tommy Woo, Josh Bernard played with an MCL injury. Johnny Arzola broke his foot. I'll put them against any team
The last 3 years our San Marcos team has lost to the eventual CIF Champion!oceanside,Madison and Helix!We gotta keep doing what we been doing and we will get ours,the culture has definitely changed at SMHS...we are a program now!The Open Division is insane,best of the best there!
