Shout out to my man
@DexterW_22
for taking his last final exam as a student-athlete at Notre Dame, which means graduation is next. To God be all the glory. I love you and am so proud of you Dexter. Keep trusting in God’s plan on His timing b/c the best is yet to come.
Through the ups / downs & the good / bad I don’t love these dudes like they were my sons, I love them because they are my sons! Along with their parents, God has entrusted me to guide them & for that I’m extremely grateful.

BREAKING- Former Charleston Southern HC Autry Denson is leaving his job as Athletics Director at Northwood Academy.
He’s been hired as RB’s coach for the NFL’s Arizona Cardinals. He’s heading off to the combine in Indianapolis immediately.
He says it’s all god’s doing.
As we begin another year let’s not be consumed by resolutions that don’t last, but let’s recommit ourselves to a deeper relationship with our Heavenly Father, which will last for an eternity. Have a very blessed 2019 New Year’s Day.
Wow packing and came across a young boy picture. @ 24 years old & you couldn’t tell me I didn’t have it all figured out. Now I realize how much I did not know and am very thankful that God kept me through my youthful ignorance.
Tough times don’t build character, tough times reveal character. Anyone can stand tall when things are going well, but it takes a true champion to stand tall when things aren’t going well & continue to work their tails off to get things fixed.

Our attitude determines our approach in life.
Our attitude determine our relationships with people.
Our attitude is often the only difference between success & failure.
Our attitude can turn problems into blessings.
Our attitude can give us an uncommonly positive perspective.
Pray for our country and pray for one another. This isn’t a political thing; it’s a people created in the image of God thing. We must do better for one another!
Pregame warmup with Tony Jones, Jr. God allowed me to have the opportunity to recruit and coach this young man at the University of Notre Dame, and has now blessed us to be back at it again in the National Football League.

@UCF_Football
. This is the part of the game that I hate. Keep your head up; God’s plan is still good & perfect.
If God puts a Goliath in front of you, He must believe there’s a David inside of you. So let’s be determined to P.U.S.H, Persevere Until Something Special Happens.
GOD IS BIGGER THAN:
Your past.
Your depression.
Your pain.
Your hate.
Your anger.
Your doubt.
Your fear.
Your shame.
Your eating disorder.
Your self harm.
Your anxiety.
Your loneliness.
Your scars.
This world.

Jesus is never bound by human opinion or approval. He doesn’t judge the externals. He treats each of us based on our future potential, not our present status.

He's a great student, a leader among his peers, and a dynamic football player.
I'm excited that as a mid-year enrollee I get to begin mentoring him sooner than later.

There are 3 phases in life. We are either currently in a storm, coming out of a storm, or headed into a storm. Thank God that non of them are permanent.

Congrats to
@realjahmirsmith
on officially graduating from HS today. Let’s see you’ve already been through a college off season workout program, spring practice, & kicked butt in the classroom. We are ND because of young men like you. It’s an honor to mentor you. Love you kid.
Instead of telling God what you want Him to do for you with the life He gave you. How about you ask Him what are the plans He already has for your life. Remember He created you for His will to be done, so stay in your lane.

By Gods grace my little princess won her 1st tennis tournament. I’m happy she won, but I’m more proud of her fulfilling her tournament goals of giving a God honoring effort with a God honoring attitude. I pray she continues to do all things so that He can get the glory!

@Jahmir_trapical
embodies every quality we look for in a Notre Dame student-athlete.
He’s a 4.0 student, a leader on his team & in his community, and the young man can ball!
We are ND because of young men like him.
#IrishBouND18
We are all blessed beyond what any of us deserve so let’s stop complaining about what we don’t have & thank God for what we do have. I double dare you to praise God like you mean it & watch how things change around you b/c of the change within you!

Prayer is often viewed as a last ditch effort as opposed to the powerful life changing and life giving resource that God has intended it to be. Talking to God a lot is the best thing any of us can do for ourselves & for one another.
Contrary to what some of us may think, opportunities do not come wrapped up pretty with a bow. Instead they appear as extremely challenging obstacles that when they knock us down, REQUIRE us to fight just to stand back up & then find away to keep swinging. God’s Plan, His Timing!
The difference between something good and something great is attention to detail. I have absolutely no desire to be good, when God has placed us here to be great!
We must pray like it depends on God, but work like it depends on us. We can’t be willing to just pray about it; we also have to be willing to do something about it.
When David faced Goliath he didn’t think his stone was too small...He believed Goliath was too big to miss. Our faith in the vision God has placed in our hearts activates His strength to enable us to defeat the giants we face.
#GiantKillers
With our words we can either build someone up or completely tear them
down. So I pray God will help us to think before we speak, choose our words wisely, and to use them to encourage one another.
Look at God working through this willing young man. Faith with football is an awesome combination. I pray this young man continues to run on in Christ, for Christ!!!
Honest mistakes are apart of life & when you learn from them allow you to grow. Bad choices are conscious decisions of our hearts to do wrong in spite of knowing better. Mistakes are tolerated, bad choices AREN’T. Be intentional to not only know what’s right, but to do it!
Being interested in something is not the same thing as being committed. When you are interested, you find an excuse. When you are committed, you find a way.
The first thing that you must do before you can start winning is that you must 🛑 losing. Losing is making excuses, not holding yourself & others accountable, not honoring commitments, & being negative. So in order to win, you must make a choice to 🛑 losing. #🛑 BeatingYourself

The only thing that truly matters & that will last is our relationship with Christ. Each of us has the freedom to choose to accept Jesus as our Lord & Savior. My prayer is that we won’t allow another second pass by without doing exactly that!

I pray you continue to use the platform of athletics to win lives for Christ & a few Super Bowls wouldn’t hurt. Love you. Go Bucs!
Championship habits are developed in the shadows. What you do when no one else is watching, determines how well you will do it when everyone is watching.
The fact that we are still here, in spite of what we have been through is evidence that God is stronger than any situation we will ever face. So, instead of crying & complaining, let’s choose to smile & share how good God has been to us.
Unfortunately, it’s become standard operating procedure to hold others to a standard that we don’t hold ourselves to. Since the only thing we can control is ourselves, let’s make a conscious choice to model the change we want to see take place in others.
(1 Corinthians 11:1)
No one should invest more toward your dreams coming true than you. If you want it bad enough then you’ll find a way. You can choose a life of comfort or accomplishment, but you can’t choose both!
