If you follow the Patrick Henry Freshmen Football Team, you hear it being said during practice, before and after games. What's the coach's job? "To love us!" What's your job? "To love each other!"
People looking from the outside would look at us with a quizzed look on their face. But in reality, we are building a community of men that trust each other, work with each other and grow a brotherhood that can't be broken.
I have been using this philosophy in coaching since 2004 when I was the JV Head Coach at the Bishops School in La Jolla. I took it with me to Southwest HS and to Hilltop HS before coming here to Patrick Henry.
I saw a news article on Joe Ehrmann, a former player for the Baltimore Colts (Yes, Baltimore Colts was before Indy) and I did some research in the style of coaching he used. I have attached a video for you to see what I am talking about.
Enjoy!
