No fall ball. No spring ball. No fans. Turnover taken away by a penalty. TD taken away by penalty. 2 pt play stuffed. Still win. The most important play is the next one. All the excuses were written, but the story wasn't. League champs.

Idk if you'll belive me, but when I was in High School, the show SportsCenter used to show the highlights from the sporting events from the night before. Now it's just people arguing about who the π is everyday and talking about trade speculation in every sport.

RIP to a hero to me. My cousin Mike. Love this picture because it captures his relentless spirit. That spirit relentlessly loved and cared for others. He is someone who left this Earth better than he found it. He gave more than he took. I love you. I miss you.

Hard work is not always repaid in full. For the fortunate, talented, and driven individuals in this organization, the work paid off. The accomplishments we're earned, not given. I am so lucky to be a part of this staff and this team. Thank you for letting me coach you guys.

At @RPIFootball we always have FUN. The hardest part about being away from campus is not being around the guys. The game offers so many benefits for the development of young men, but the thing I miss this most is the pure unadulterated joy of hard work becoming success. β¬οΈ

Happy Father's day to the Ledgendary @coach_rmarcella. He once told me "as a coach, you will wear many hats". From teachers, to mentors, to guidance counselors, to actual camouflage bucket hats. he was right. I'm glad I get to share him with many others!

Join me in wishing @CoachKLars a happy wedding day tomorrow! We didn't grow up together, but we grew together. A true friend is one where you can pick up a conversation no matter the gap in time, someone who can tell you the hard things, and someone who always lifts you up.

I remember your third day of camp freshman year. You told me after practice that you wanted to go home. You also told me that you'd never quit, and you do it all for your family. Look at you now. Leader, Captain, and now Graduate π Student at one of the best schools in the πΊπΈ.

Two things here: .1. The spin move should be used to bounce off of anticipated contact, not as a juke move. 2. Advice to young coaches: Have really good players who do things you can't coach and then take credit for coaching that technique.

Happy Birthday to one of the best Teammates I have ever seen. @_MKTrey had a season ending Achilles injury his JR year spring and still came to camp. He got 5 votes for captain without once suiting up. Says a lot about what your teammates thought of you. "We" guy in a "Me" world.

Rodgers will get all the love here, but look at the WR go up and high point this ball. He does an excellent job of keeping the ball high away from defenders in the endzone. Jump timing was impeccable, strong hands, and extraordinary effort to reel in Rodger's first TD of 2018.

Hats off to @CanisiusHSFB and @ionafootball and their respective administrations for getting on the field together. Gotta love the "play anyone anywhere" mentality and the fearless approach taken by both school's leaders to give the students the opportunity. Iron sharpens Iron.

Mike Tivinis, from @Mascofootball, was a 4 year stud for @RPIFootball. Mr. #6for6 scored 22 career TDs, complied over 2000 yards rushing, and was exceptional as a pass protector and lead blocker. He is currently an electrical engineer at BAE Systems β‘οΈ.

#Thelastdance taught us a lot about team chemistry. Reflecting on my own experience, the best teams I have been a part of are a mix of Tyrannical Competitors, Zen Buddhists, Overachievers, guys that just follow suit, and a few ABSOLUTELY bonkers ppl that dye their hair.

You can't tell the story of Rob Law without the first clip. How would you react if your first big shot in the show didn't go as planned? From that moment on he became one of our best performers. Tough, savvy, fast, clutch, tough, and tough made him "Big Catch Bob." E+R=0.

Big Bob Boos was a 2 time first team All-Conference Center for @RPIFootball. He could play in space, move people, and was a great leader up front. Bobby exemplifies the "Big Skill" positions.

Shout out to @PerryLaskaris for this beautiful art. Photoshop is a hell of a thing. #streetfighter #camp. This was some very poor demonstration of the Wing stepping down on PAT/FG. Gotta keep the back knee straight and be explosive in the punch!

Great plays are all about the little things. Protection up front, great QB pocket movement, WR's running routes to depth, and selfless, tough, smart plays from versatile players like @_MKTrey. Having a tough slot receiver who understands protections is just awesome.

Happy b-day @CoachJDittman58! A man who gives his ALL to everything he does. He is the personification of the phrase, "How one does anything, is how one does everything." Jeff does anything and everything with ridiculous passion and detail and @RPIFootball is lucky to have him.

Completely agree. The argument for a non-padded Spring Football based on safety concerns is self-refuting. Football without pads is much more dangerous. Pads additionally allow for increased accuracy in off-season evaluations leading to a more equitable experience for students.

@Lane_Kiffin @FAU_Football @ESPNCFB You may have started something here. @rpifootball staff's best catches. As a WR coach I am obligated by law to say, "Two Hands," and then, "Nice Catch."
