Most people have no clue what goes into being a high school teacher/coach most of my staff got in at 6am and their putting out laundry and watching film at 8pm not because they have to but because they love what they do and love those kids! Love and respect everyone on the grind
It’s official the Bruner’s are homeowners! Starting off 2024 with major blessings. Never thought I’d get to this point even a few years ago. God is good!

Always proud of my guys when they get the opportunity to shine.
@therealraygates
speaking at the
@I20FBClinic
after he had one of the best debut seasons in the state!
@Realrclark25
So using that same logic Brees, Warren moon, Troy Aikman, Rodger Staubach are not all time greats either??? Man you need to give this argument up. He is gonna end up as one of the most efficient ever, top 5 in wins, top 10 in every stat. That’s all time great brother
This time of year reminds me starting football camp 26 years ago. Football kept me off the streets, out of jail, alive, got my best friend

great book to learn how to better handle adversity and tackle the big tasks life throws at us! Keep grinding and focus on getting better everyday
I want to thank my brothers

@Eric_Mims_Sr
Paul Jackson and their beautiful wives for joining us in Miami to celebrate our 10 year anniversary and bring in 2022. So blessed to have awesome friends and family that make me better everyday!
@ShannonSharpe
He turns the ball over a lot way too much. I think everyone understands that. How about the extra possessions he gets you with rebounds, tips, and drawing attention in the lane. He gets way more of those then any other pg also. It’s two sides to every coin
@mspears96
Every one who criticizes teachers should go work at a school for a month and see how much better they can do. Teaching is truly Gods work and great teachers are our biggest blessings in any profession
My guy 23 man proud of him and the man he’s become! Still miss the days we were rolling tough in those north side Amarillo streets. He made me a better man
Best thing about coaches school is bumping into some of the best coaches in the business and bouncing ideas off each other

@DemarcusHarri01
@ExposingOldhead
Lebron fans be funny posting all these stats. If you believe Jordan is better it has nothing to do with any stats. It has to do with when Jordan was in his prime you ALWAYS thought he would win and most times he did. Dominated his era unlike anyone since. No excuses or what ifs
Like to shout out my good friend
@DemarcusHarri01
for putting together a weekly chat with some of the brightest young head coaches in the state. Big time guests and topics. Iron sharpen iron! Thanks for your vision and brotherhood
@RealSkipBayless
Westbrook had one turnover in the fourth quarter and the pacers didn’t even score on it. He also had 8 points in the fourth quarter. I don’t know why you always find the need to hate on that man.
Why high school sports are so important!
@Eric_Mims_Sr
been my best friend for 20+ years. Forged on our high school football field during hot west Texas summers. I know he always has my back and will do anything to uplift me. Sad to see him go but I know Amarillo is better for it
Warms my heart seeing this class of 2023 walk the stage! Such a blessing to spend 4 years with them and watch them grow into young men and women. My day ones! I know you’re gonna do big things and make us proud. Congrats and thanks for letting me be apart of your journey!

@ChrisGilbert_1
and
@DemarcusHarri01
birthdays so close. It must have been written in the stars for both you brothers to be great. Happy birthday to both living legends and more importantly good friends
Thanks to everyone that has supported Coach Rob. He almost hit his goal. He opened a lot of doors in the dfw and was a mentor to a lot of great coaches. Please help him and his family out of you can.
It’s amazing how some people take what happens to them good, bad, and ugly learn from it and move on. While others either dwell on things or continue doing the same things that caused issues for them in the first place. Your response to situations is the key!
When you are a trying to do something special in life you must have unshakable confidence in your vision. There will be so many obstacles thrown at you both seen and unseen. But you must continue on and persevere! In the end that’s what makes it special
Shout out to
@DemarcusHarri01

Shout out to Coach
@Locklyn33
for having us out to practice Sat and their big Fiesta bowl win on New years! You got them boys locked in coach
@therealraygates
Every time I’m in a room full of head coaches I remember how blessed I am to be in the select group. So many bright, talented, hard working leaders in one room and I get to sit in with them. Always blessed!
Man honestly this was the toughest week in my profession but I Praise God and am thankful for my real ones. Can’t feel sorry for too long too blessed and it’s not in my nature. Grateful God blessed my athlete to have all his functions so scared part of the game
@TheVolumeSports
@ColinCowherd
What game were you watching? He was running for his life and getting hit the whole game. We all know Payton is your buddy but if you thought today was on Russ you weren’t watching
Proud of myself. Finished reading the longest book I’ve ever read and that makes 50 books in 7 years. Not bad for a man from Hamlet hillside Amarillo TX that never read a book into his 30’s
#KnowledgeisPower
Great event tonight for our staff and kids some dynamic speakers Charles Haley, Mayor and Pastor Aleman, and the great
@CarlosLynn
Thanks to
@DemarcusHarri01
for the invite and thanks to all the hands that put it on! We got better tonight!
One of my mentors Coach Mike Robinson has been diagnosed with a rare disease that currently has no cure. He will soon need home health care. Here is a link for his Go Fund me if you can help or send your prayers up I’m sure his family would appreciate it
@Realrclark25
I’m not sure what you would have to do to be considered elite or great but if you look at the first 10 years of his career no matter if your going by stats or wins he has one of the greatest careers of all time let alone in todays nfl
Proud to celebrate one of my mentors. A man that helped me grow and always believed in me. A man that taught me the true definition of kid first program! Congratulations Coach Pierce I hope I have half the impact you had in the profession!
Be careful who you talk down on, turn your back on, hate on, spread rumors about, mistreat, and disrespect. Life comes fast and you never know who you’ll need or when you’ll need them
Someone’s first high school football game is today. Someones last first game is today. Someone starts a district winning, playoff berth winning, or state champ winning journey tonight! Whatever your path enjoy it tomorrows not promised! Good luck to everyone kicking off
Great coach from North Mesquite Eddie Mellado on the first staff I was on when I moved to DFW passed away from cancer. Prayers out to the Mellado family and friends. Here is a go fund me link if anyone would like to help them out.
@MolinaFootball
@DemarcusHarri01
My boy is doing something special at Mesquite. They got an awesome staff and kids are grinding! Can’t wait to see what y’all do in the fall. Iron sharpens Iron!
Hit that Jackie Robinson today (42) Blessed to see another year. Thanks to all the people that loved, supported, and believed in me to get me to this point. Looking fwd to seeing what God has for me this year!
73 days from now our 2022 season will begin. What you do with those 73 days will determine how that season goes! Every hour in every day is an opportunity to get better. I’m speaking to all players, coaches, and MYSELF!

@RealSkipBayless
You don’t get credit for picking the highly favored team especially when the other teams second best player is out for the series. Give the clippers and Westbrook credit and admit you were wrong about this game.
