Player Development Nerd - I help impactful people create player development plans through content, coaching, and community. Worked for UH, KU, BU, and TXHSFB.
The Player Development Guide
This is a book I wrote detailing the programming and systems I used in the player development role with Houston, Kansas, and Baylor football programs.
The book includes sections on:
- Personal Wellness
- Community Impact
- Career Development

Dawn Staley won an UNDEFEATED National Championship and one of the first things out her mouth is the great scouting report her ASSISTANT COACH put together.
That’s LEADERSHIP! Imagine how that makes that Coach and staff feel.
You play and work harder for leaders like that.

This picture speaks a lot to me of my time with Kadarian!
KD was one of the guys I could count on to willingly impact the community.
This pic is him reading the book that he would read to the kids, so that he could engage them fully during that time.
Saddened.

The 🔔 was rung, the chemo treatments are OVER!
So proud of the way my sister FOUGHT cancer, she continued to be an excellent teacher & is the team leader. She didn’t let it influence her impact at her school! One of the STRONGEST people I know.

is here.
PLEASE DON’T lose what you’ve built by misusing social media.
1. Freedom of speech is a right, but does have consequences.
2. Think before you press send.
3. Don’t argue with trolls.
Please use wisdom these next couple of days.
Student-athletes remember a "COOL person" may not have your LIFE's best interest in mind.
There were ppl COOLER than my Father, but they didn't have an investment & plan for my life like my Pops did.
Let those that will hold you ACCOUNTABLE impact your LIFE.

Today marks 1 year with
@KU_Football
! It has been a year of learning and many new experiences. I appreciate all the relationships I have built in the 🌻 state. Thank y’all for making Kansas home.
Year 2, 🗣Let’s Go!
A trend I believe is coming in College Football:
Increased player development/engagement staffs.
With the impact of the transfer portal in CFB, there must be a greater focus on the overall development of SAs while they are on campus.
So many people to thank for the amazing experience I had at UH. Thank you to all the coaches, student athletes, trainers, admin, academic staff, athletics staff, parents, fans, boosters, alumni, students, university faculty and staff. You all are great people.
I remember my second week on a college football staff and a young man named Alexander Myres came into my office asking to walk on.
