Coach's Corner

May 2024

I have had the OPportunity to meet with a few Quakers this offseason who may be interested in pursuing football past high school! It’s something I love to do and take pride in. I love to learn from others and grow my own knowledge base. Passing it to others is the best part!

I have been a part of a few learning OPportunities and wanted to share the info with you. Attached is a link to some videos I took at a recent clinic in Syracuse. It’s all the Head Coach’s in the Empire 8 conference (DIII) talking potential players, families and recruiting. It’s awesome!

There is also a link to an article that was written in the first WNY Weekly 2024 Publication created by Mark Adair. It’s his first back after taking a few years off. It has an article about Cortland State the DIII National Championships. Head Coach Curt Fitzpatrick talks recruiting and potential players and I think it’s valuable.

As always, if your son MAY be interested in playing football after graduation let’s meet! I want to help! I want guys to have OPportunities in their future. I suggest meeting early. Meeting with student athletes in their freshman year is ideal but I understand everyone’s path and timeline is different!
