MY MISSION
My mission is to share my knowledge and experience with fellow coaches and athletes alike. The game of football has blessed me beyond my wildest dreams and now I am trying to pay it forward and give back to the game. Whether you are a coach or player, I will incorporate base fundamental teaching that will develop the necessary skills in order for you to improve your craft. I will help you build a solid foundation, and then apply a process for sustained learning and growth.
ABOUT ME
I am David Walker,
A veteran football coach who loves the game and has used it as a vehicle to shape and educate young people throughout my career. With over 25 years of coaching experience spanning High School, College, and professional level teams. I have been fortunate to work for and learn from several great coaches including Jim Caldwell, Dave Wannstedt, and South Florida high school legend Walt Frazier.
As a player, I was an all-league running back and captain at Syracuse University. After my playing career, I traded my cleats for a clipboard, transitioning into coaching with Coach Frazier's staff at Carol City High School. My career then took me to college teams—Syracuse University and the University of Pittsburgh—before I joined the NFL to coach the Indianapolis Colts, Detroit Lions and the Chicago Bears. At least a dozen of my former college players went on to have careers in the NFL, including perennial Pro Bowler LeSean McCoy. Additionally, I have coached on multiple conference championship teams.
My coaching philosophy has always centered around my three F's: Firm, Flexible, and Fun. Firm enough to demand a player's best effort, flexible enough to treat each player as an individual and coach them accordingly, and the fun part is seeing personal growth both on and off the field in each player.
