It's crucial to teach your athletes the importance of social media. It leaves a footprint that can always be found #txhsfbchat

@CoachDKR ok, next time you're on the topic is coaching with Herm Edwards...he may be my favorite football advocate ever #txhsfbchat

NickStro66 Apr 6 @ 9:22 PM EDT

When I was in high school the coaches were not allowed to follow/friend the athletes on social media. Idk whose rule that was #txhsfbchat

CoachDShack Apr 6 @ 9:22 PM EDT

@CoachDKR good point. Parents need educating too! Apple doesn't fall far from the tree, but doesn't meet it can't be cultivated. #txhsfbchat

@CoachDKR on social media, you promote not only yourself, but your school, coaches, program and family. Do right by them #txhsfbchat

Participation award, I think kids are smart enough to know what they are, I personally would do it but that's because I'm cheap #txhsfbchat

Here's a question...how has recruiting affected the respect level of your athletes? #txhsfbchat

elbigfred Apr 6 @ 9:35 PM EDT

I agree. Participation awards are meaningless. You see it in the NCAA too. 72 Bowl games and 31 post-season basketball tournys. #txhsfbchat

We are blessed. We have great kids who have gone on to play at the next level and have done it the right way. Set the standard. #txhsfbchat

Players that receive a lot of recruiting attention is great for them and the program. It provides a goal to attain #txhsfbchat

@CoachDKR Coach could you define what you mean by "respect level" for the kids who are following the chat pls? #txhsfbchat

coachfisher_rp - Moderator Apr 6 @ 9:40 PM EDT

@coachfisher_rp yes! Cannot practice/coach the same we as 5,10,15 years ago. But knowledge is increasing. #txhsfbchat

Something I tend to disagree with are these "elite" 7 on 7 leagues that are starting to pop up to "promote" athletes #txhsfbchat

Concussions have everyone scared, we go above & beyond to protect with gear & teach fundamentals. #txhsfbchat https://t.co/5mUYXJoKb3

CoachDKR Apr 6 @ 9:41 PM EDT

What is the most pressing issue facing our sport today? I'd love to get everyone's opinion on this. #txhsfbchat

cahsfbchat Apr 6 @ 9:52 PM EDT

2/2we had a few players who didnt tell us or there parents that their head hurt after a game.some parents didnt notice symptoms #txhsfbchat

coachmitchell17 Apr 6 @ 9:52 PM EDT

We as coaches can handle concussions thru proper instructions & care, but the way kids think and act that's more difficult. #txhsfbchat

coachebbe Apr 6 @ 9:52 PM EDT

@NickStro66 are you for or against them?#txhsfbchat

HSSocialMedia Apr 6 @ 9:53 PM EDT

Any of you have the budget for the tech that tracks impact for concussions? #txhsfbchat

CoachDShack Apr 6 @ 9:53 PM EDT

@CoachDKR personal trainers... Some are good. Most are sharks. #txhsfbchat

I'm also not a fan of academies that might start popping up that take away the value of academics and focus solely on athletics #txhsfbchat

CoachDKR Apr 6 @ 9:55 PM EDT

Concussions, over-the-top parents and unrealistic expectations from players seem to be the Top 3 #txhsfbchat

CODY_GARDNER Apr 6 @ 9:55 PM EDT

Control what we can control, tech, equip, train, baseline,,,,,,everything. Perfect coach!!!! #txhsfbchat https://t.co/bVA3C9Y6vD

If our athlete's mindset/expectations/sense of entitlement is a problem, how do we fix that? #txhsfbchat

@HSSocialMedia yes we do. Every player takes the test on registration day. #txhsfbchat

FBCoachPedroza Apr 6 @ 9:56 PM EDT

community service projects are usually very humbling and effective to diminish any sense of entitlement #txhsfbchat https://t.co/1BiSytMish
