1st Team All-Region O-Line , high motor kid that enjoys finishing his blocks. Can play both sides of the ball, quick 1st step off the line and has good hands. Ready to ball at the next level.

Welp. I hope the AIA really takes a look at their system. 8-2, hell, 9-1 and miss the playoffs is a freaking travesty!! Im going to try and be polite, because I love my job. LOVE MY BOYS and thank you seniors. You did everything I asked and then some. Literally…TEMPE VS EVERYBODY

Tempe football goes 8-2. Did the Buffaloes do enough to make the 4A playoffs? They came into Thursday's game rated No. 29, lost a game to the wire to No. 18 Marcos de Niza (8-2). Only other loss early in year to 5A Chaparral (rated 13 in 5A).

Our offensive staff..yes ! These three are the men behind one of the best offensive teams in the 4A division. Job well done my brothas ✊🏾

Gotta shout out these two dudes. This is it, our whole off. staff. The only HUDL sideline we have is when we huddle on the sideline. No one in the box; it’s old school; film, details & grinding. Luis Llamas WR/Passing Game, Donnie Meador OL/Run game. Yall make my job easy ✊🏽

Schedule inequality in 4A is a real issue. Creates a lot of 1-game season scenarios like Tempe’s game against Marcos De Niza tonight. I think they answered the bell despite not getting the W but we’ll see what the computer says.

Amazing game tonight. Came up short by 6 points. I’ll tell you this, we proved we deserve a shot at the playoffs. This was one hell of a game tonight. Seriously, I love these Kids and my staff of damn good coaches. I appreciate you all More than you all know. Fingers Crossed 🤞

If you weren’t coaching one of those two teams, I bet that was a great HS football game to watch. Obviously not the outcome we wanted, but if it had to end tonight, I’ll take the way our guys played in this one every time 💙🦬

I know it doesn’t eliminate the pain of tonite.. But things are changing at Tempe.. Over the last few years I’ve watched Coach Freeman build this thing VERY patiently and methodically.. The culture, the coaches, teaching the kids how to compete, teaching the kids how to win, and a variety of other things.. I do think that Tempe at 8-2 belongs in the playoffs.. And I know I’m not the only one buying stock in the #TempeTurnaround

There was a lot of questions about if Tempe was a playoff football going into tonight despite their 8-1 record (8-0 in 4A). A 9.2 SOS rating (3rd worst in 4A) was the reason why. The Buffs took #18 Marcos De Niza to the brink in one of the best games of the season. I don’t care what the formula says on Saturday morning, Tempe proved tonight that they are a playoff football team despite the loss. Hats off to Coach Freeman and his staff turning a program that struggled to win a single game into a playoff-caliber squad.

Kentucky offensive line coach Cutter Leftwich at halftime against LSU: "How we play is f**king violent. Its our brand of Football. We're gonna have to take these guys and grab them by the f**king neck. Take them to the fourth quarter. They can't play with you for four quarters."
