Football UniversityFootball University

The mission of FBU is simple; we strive to provide high school football players with the best training and development opportunities available for student-athletes. FBU holds mini camps and personal workouts for high school, youth, college, and NFL quarterbacks around the nation. FBU is the complete serious player development program providing both on-field skills training and off-field classroom preparation. We offer athletes the opportunity to work in small competitive groups where they will receive personal intimate instruction to improve their football and leadership skills.

In 2008, Football University will be holding Mini Camps across the country. Each Mini Camp consists of a Friday-Sunday weekend. Athletes will undergo a total of 20 hours of intense training and development both on the field and off the field including film study and classroom testing. During the final session players will go through an NFL pro-day workout where they will receive a final grade and evaluation. (Please note that there will be NO combine testing at any FBU Mini Camp).

FBU also holds personal workouts for quarterbacks, providing them with one on one attention and coaching. Personal workouts are scheduled on a case by case basis.

Key Statements:

  • FBU Mini Camps will feature a maximum of a 7 quarterback to 1 coach ratio
  • FBU was developed for the serious football player who is committed and dedicated to achieving greatness.
  • We are committed to fulfilling student-athletes potential, and teaching them how they can take their game to the next level
  • FBU is searching for football players who are committed to excellence and dedicated to continually improving their on-field skills and off-field preparation
  • FBU will provide quarterbacks with skills training that no other program can offer which will include the same drills and training philosophies used when training NFL quarterbacks like Tom Brady and JaMarcus Russell.
  • The most important principle of FBU is the development and progression of our enrolled QBs, RBs, WRs, LMs, DBs, LBs, and P/Ks.

FBU was created in 2007 to teach quarterbacks the on-field skills and techniques as well as intangibles that make good quarterbacks great and great quarterbacks into legends. FBU teaches student athletes the on-field techniques and skills that most quarterbacks do not learn until they reach the NFL. In 2008, FBU provides students with the off-field study habits that will benefit them for years to come at all football positions. Football University invites, trains, and announces the arrival of the next generation of football stars. FBU goes beyond just on-field instruction. All players break down film, listen to guest speakers, work out with strength/speed coaches, and utilize high tech training tools usually reserved for the pros.
