Instructor

For seven years now, I have been coaching quarterbacks at the high school level. And though I steadily acquired much of my knowledge on a consistent basis each year, my learning really reached new depths during the past two years while coaching Florida Gators-bound Jordan Reed. Because I was blessed with the responsibility of preparing him for the next level, I took advantage of every opportunity to improve my coaching. I have, during the past year:

Coached Casey Cochran: Won state championship as a Freshman, Finished 2009 Season as state’s top passer
coached quarterbacks for Eric Mangini at the annual New York Jets camp in Hartford.
coached alongside Larry Kennan--private coach for Tony Romo, Eli Manning, Byron Leftwich and more--at Football University in Storrs, CT.
coached at Friday Night Lights, the Florida Gators’ annual, elite camp for the nation’s top recruits (there were over 30 QB’s in attendance, but only New London High QB, Jordan Reed, was selected as the Gators’ top recruit.
Tutored by Scot Loeffler, (Florida Gators’ Quarterbacks Coach and Tom Brady’s college position coach)

Coaching a quarterback requires special knowledge of the kinesthetic movements of the body, the physics of weight-transfer and balance, and first-hand experience playing the position. My goals as a coach have always been to make my players better than me in the end, and to make them able to coach themselves using the teachings I’ve demonstrated during training.
