Im a young kid with a big dream.

I want to coach football.

Well Monday i found out that the University Of Central Oklahoma(where i go to school) football offices, received my resume and called me into an interview. The interview went great and the Director of Football operations offered me a job on the spot as a film assistant. To most it may not be a big deal, but for me its the begging of a very long road to the rest of my life. To be hired as a freshman is pretty incredible and they really seemed to like me.

I just wanted to share this experience with ya'll. I still cant believe i will be getting paid to do this. Im really excited.

Good luck man. I have learned that people who are are not successful are usually jealous of people that are.

Never let anyone but yourself dictate what you do with your life...ignore the haters.

Good luck to you. I coached football on the jr high level for many yrs. Sure do miss the games... really miss the association with the players.

Do not miss the extra long hours. And some of the parent bs.

But I bet you have a great ride, because that's where your heart is. :)

Yup, coached football for years...

...better you than me. ;) There's not enough money laying around to convince me to go back and do it.

But...if you're into it, congrats and good luck. :)

I break down and analyze film for evaluations to start. More to come. They expect me to move fast with my "sort of football knowledge"

Kudos. A foot in the door is all you need. Listen and learn.

In other good news, you now have a new come on line with the coeds:
