Today I decided to Throw in the towel. I am going into junior year and I would’ve been my first year playing. I was very torn on what to do. I kept circling but I figured I need to make a decision. This video helped me a lot. I doodled still feel weird about it. When I went to practice it was like doing a job. I was there just to be there I didn’t hate it or like it. The only aspect I liked was it being social. And I liked being in a team. But I never had a passion for the sport itself. Next year I need to juggle NHS other extracurriculars and 6 APs when last yea it was barely juggling one ap class. I also have other hobbies I want to pursue. I didn’t enjoy quitting football but I didn’t want kids overwhelm myself and I figured the least important option had to go. I’m still not sure if I made the best decision. I talked to people in football and they all said games are fun. But they also enjoyed practice while for me it was just like going through the motions. And I had no excitement for tackles or catching the ball. I liked all that came with football except for football itself. And I also run track which I loved from the very start even in the worst practices. All the coaches thought I was going to be a varsity starter but I just can’t see myself loving the sport as much as the team would need me to. I still am not sure if I made the best decision. I guess I work like what you think if you see this. I didn’t hate football but I figured I didn’t want to overwhelm myself but you really don’t know until you try as well.

Just regular spray paint?

This helped me alot because I’m going into 7th and I decided lol to play because I used to be in a terrible every single day from practice and this video is very relatable😕

Just seen this video and after watching it I disassemble my helmet and just paint it came out tuff now the whole team want me to do they helmet 🔥🔥🔥🔥

Nice work man!

Thank you so much for this video man! Im playing basketball at the collegate level, and I relate to putting in extra effort and not reaping the benefits. It is also very academically challenging as well, with only the difficult classes piling up, it is growing to be too much. Another hard part is my nonexistent, diminishing social life outside of sports. I realize the possibility of quitting the sport is not me being soft, but instead it is me womening up to my real responsibilities, which is school, internships, and making connections.

I talked to a recruiting coach for jsu recently for me to walk on but he hasn’t texted back in a while should I send him another text?

Yo

Is it better to use it with the quick release tool?

My school has those helmets

Ricardo Cruz WR/DB San Antonio, TX Graet Advice Coach, next comment of mine will be the results of my tryout.

I’ve played football since I was 9 years old I’m 22 now and been playin d1 in college going on my 5th year I have been a walk on at 2 different schools and haven’t had the best experience. I have an opportunity now to go and play on a scholarship at a d1 school and my dad has helped me a lot with getting this opportunity. At first we didn’t know exactly if I was gonna get put on a scholarship and my thing was I’m not going if I’m not gonna be on scholarship. But once they said I was gonna be on scholarship I still don’t really feel excited and passionate about going. I feel like my hearts just not in it and I can’t give it my all. My parents think I should at least go for the season and if I don’t like it be done but honestly like I said I’m just not passionate and feel like I’m burnt out from it. Do you think I would regret not giving my self one last chance to finally be on scholarship?

Bro facts I hate fast metabolism but don’t at the same time😂 only when I’m tryna gain weight tho

I have played basketball my whole life, and now have decided to play football going into my Sophomore year. My problem is the passion for both sports. I don’t have a feeling to play anymore for both sports, and have a passion for something else. Although I am a great player for both sports, I just can’t handle the stress and anxiety from waking up to getting out their and doing drills, only to get yelled at if I make a mistake which makes me feel like I am not good enough. I do hope if I continue to play, that there will be better days ahead!

Just found this video but I'm 16 5'8 125 pounds and I'm trying to join the varsity football team for the first time. I'm a junior so I feel like I started football too late because I never looked into a sport in my life. I feel like my schools team isn't that competitive because I have seen players my size playing for the team. What should I do to get started in football and in my weight journey? I've been working out for a bit seen some changes in my body but struggled to put on weight. You gave some good advice for it though.

Hey man, I wanted to give you a story of mine. My family loves to play soccer, both my older sibilings have played soccer since they were young. I was no different. But I am now 16 yrs old and I start feeling like I genuinely want to quit playing soccer. I have gotten serious depression and anxiety throughout my youth. I remember I tried killing myself twice because I was almost always a scapegoat on my team for mistakes that happen and I felt like I let the team down. Despite me working hard, I kept getting the same mental problems. I tried to push through the problems but once in a while they do come back. It seems as though my enjoyment in soccer has long gone and I am doing soccer only to stay fit. In high school I have gained such a huge disdain for my teammates because a lot of their attitudes hinder our teams performance. I was a junior last year and I was a varsity benchwarmer that would occasionally play the games. Entering senior year I am considering quitting soccer despite my coach wanting to start me but I do not want to waste my year that makes me feel like I am wasting my time and instead actually start trying to find something I can do for the rest of my life because I am still young.

how do you deflate the pads in the helmet?

I graduated highschool and was planning on walking on to southeastern university

Youu are true iam walkon temple university football in 1990s i had to save money i had to walk everyyyyy morning south Philadelphia to north Philadelphia temple campus for 5 years. I had to work extremelyyyyyyyy hard. I had invented my game called miniature football game. Please go to KZbin type. ROB edit small eagles vs Rams game. Please get in contact me .please get back with me

I got that helmet too its nice isn't it

any tips on how to remove the chinstrap without a quick release tool

Thank you for helping me make a decision.

bro those quick release pins are mf ridiculous - all they had to do was keep it a screw/washer/rubber simple - mf no wonder riddell went under

Hey u got any advice for someone who didn’t play in highschool and been some time since he been in it? Like how should he move in order to be a walk on for college at the age of 22?

Great advice coach. I’m a sophmore,& I started off my career as a pwo in the c-USA. Didn’t like it so I took about 9 months off. Still felt love for the game so I went juco for abt 3 months in spring ball then got caught up in the wrong thing. Now I’m thinking about going back to university and walking on. Do you think it’s worth it?

Mmmmm

Please help my cousin. He’s at Fresno State 2nd year & he was varsity starter in high school but his coach quit before he graduated so he didn’t get college offers from teams. He’s at Fresno State with his grades but he’s a very good player.

Hey bro, I'm wondering from your honest opinion how long did the paint last on that helmet you did I got a bunch of helmets I have to repaint and I'm trying to do it low budget. I just want to see if they will immediately chip or will they last a while? Thank you for your video fam!

orlando, florida I'm currently a junior in hs and I wanna play, but Im kinda nervous. Would playing senior year be a waste of time or should I do it? My family is discouraging me. I'm most likely going to try to be a walk on in college regardless

Thank you🙏🏾

God is good!❤

this channel is the best man binging these videos right now

I’m a senior in college and my basketball season ended. I have another year of eligibility due to covid. I have been in turmoil about taking that 5th year. regardless of what I do, my plan was to get my masters. I just have to decide on whether or not I want to play another year on top of a more difficult degree. I fear that I could miss out on having a positive influence on my team as a 5th year.. but I could barely hold myself together as a senior, and could not be a leader to any of my teammates.. i’m torn, because my mind and body are screaming at me to let it go and focus on academics and a career but I fear that I am stepping away from God’s plan for me. if I can’t pull myself together, then it would be best for me if I left.. still so torn but I might just be going crazy. been trying to make this decision for a year.

I’m trying to become a walk-on at Kennesaw State for basketball. I’ve sent an introductory email, signed up for NCAA eligibility, I plan on going to the team camp in the simmer, and I’m getting to send my highlight clips to them. Is there anything else I can do or am I up date?

What spray can did you use? Because I am planning to do this to my lacrosse helmet

I am a freshman in high school but I am home schooled. I have never played an actual game of football but I have played with my friends on the street. I would like to go to the university of Missouri and be a walk on QB. Do you think that I could make a tryout and if I did and had the skills, that a coach would take me on that?

How can you begin?

Was injured my junior year and played behind 2 all American wide receivers my senior year. Never really got any film. Going into my freshman year at University of Arizona. I’ve been training hitting the weights currently at 6’1 185. Just wanted know what I should be saying in these emails. Should I be talking about stats or just strictly asking when I can get a tryout.

Hey my son try it out today. He is a freshman it was an easy to get a walk-on spot. I am just worried. Hope he makes the team! Help

Thank you this helped a lot

Any advice to get it to be nice and even like yours?

So, I transferred to a new school in my junior year of hs, and i broke my foot before my senior year so i wasn't able to get any film. I grew a passion for football starting from freshman year so i decided that I would try to walk-on somewhere, I am taking my first year as a college freshman at a community college but i plan to transfer after this year. I have been going to the gym as well as trying to gain some weight since I'm thinner than expected (I'm trying to play WR or K). Do you have any advice? Would you say that I'm on the right track, or is there something more I need to be doing?

What do you think the age limit would be I just made 20 a couple months ago

If I had the passion do you think I could be a walk on if I have no highschool experience?

Even tho i play soccer i relate to this vid. I played my whole life basically and spent so much time on soccer. I just had my first season of college soccer as a freshman and ian feeling it no more. 2nd semester just started and im debating quitting and going back to my home state. The game dont feel fun no more I feel like I should just quit tbh.

I’m currently a junior, I will be a senior next fall, and I played for the first time I played football this year. I did it out of love for the game and I had always wanted to do it. I met a coach you to this day I’m grateful for who trained me and mentored me, and I thought I was prepared, but clearly I wasn’t ready at all. Idk if you know about the trinity league but it’s the hardest division of high school football in the country, so I didn’t really have a choice. Everyone is better than me, bigger, faster, stronger, etc, no matter how hard I tried, it was never good enough. I hated the season, being a 3rd string on jv, although I made some few friends and memories, idk if it’s enough. It gave me depression, which I still have, and I honestly can’t sleep at night trying to make a decision. I promised my personal coach I’d keep going and that I’d give it my all this off-season, but idk if it’s worth the sacrifice. I don’t wanna leave my senior year, my teammates, or my dreams, but idk if I can take it anymore. I quit baseball when I was in the 5th grade and it was my biggest regret, and I feel like it’s keeping me from quitting, same with my parents and all that they’ve done. I want to play football, but idk if I can make it happen, deep down I think I’ll always be a fan of the game, rather than a player, if you see this please give me your input, just stressing over this game.

Nice job Nice gloves 😂

I only played 2 weeks during highschool. And I didn’t even get to play, my senior year I got injured during practice with a severe sprain. Never got any PT or got to play in previous years due to financials. I’m thinking about going to college (I’m 22 now) and if I did should I walk on? It’s a smaller FCS D1 school, but I still lack some knowledge in the game. Do I have a chance? Or do you think they’d teach me without judgement? If I need to know stuff, what SHOULD I know as a fresh starter? I played outside of school with friends but that’s about it.

My dream is to play football again and be running back once again imma try this see what goes threw i always wanted to be bearcats i love your videos
