Q & A.

If you have a request that is not listed we can discuss and plan a way to intergrate it into the layout.

Having actually gone through it recently, and currently going through it with our athletes we work with. We have had success in helping players  get into FBS D1, D2 programs. Having said that, we just want to help others with their journey through the process. And hopefully help take a load off of your coaches as they prepare and plan for the upcoming season. In certain cases it may be possible that we can have the other players we have worked with attend as well.

 I do want to stress this. This is NOT to try and recruit Long Snappers, Kickers, Punters, etc. to our training academy or upcoming events. This is also not an outreach for recruiting for any of the colleges we have open spots for or currently play for. This is just an educational opportunity to share some experience from current, past players and trainers who can relate to the stress of it all. Football and recruiting is not like it was 15+ years ago. Rules, NIL, etc. have changed the landscape. If you bank on making it with "This is how we did it back in my day" your probably not going to like the outcome. Lets us help. 

Messages have been sent out to multiple programs that we currently work with. If your interested in having us out to speak please let me know so I can put it on the calendar. We appreciate the opportunity you all have given us to work with your current and former players. And we look forward to seeing you all soon.

Fee: Free to local school within the Birmingham area. Outside of the area if you can cover gas/travel price thats all we ask.
