“I’m fired up about our Coaches Clinic,” Pruitt said. “One thing about our staff is that there is seven of us who started out as high school coaches. There have been a bunch of high school coaches who have already come to our practices and it’s going to be open door practices to high school coaches all the time. It helped me as a high school coach. People were good to me and gave me an opportunity to go watch practice, to set meetings, to grow as a coach. We want to do the same thing here. We want to be the most accessible program to high school coaches in all of the United States.

“We want to make our Coaches Clinic the best in the country. Like everything else we are starting over. I’m very thankful. We have number of really good guys coming to speak. Peyton (Manning) is coming her to help us. Coach (David) Cutcliiffe, Coach (Mike) Vrabel) – we are going to have a bunch of great guys coming in here to share. I’m excited about that and I’m thankful these guys are doing it for us.”
