Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

Who is Tracy Ford ?

For the laypersons and lurkers who don't overtly follow this TBS stuff, what's the low down here. Who is he and why are we happy with him?

    He does good work for some of our(?) guys. But overall I think he's kinda a scumbag, for running a bullshit 7on7 team and part of the Bellevue chicanery.

    He feeds our boys rhino cum before Socha gets his own soldiers in there.

    Question for the bored. Which is more potent. White rhino cum or black rhino cum?

    He's a really good dude. Not just a 7 on 7 guy but he owns his own training facility in Bellevue and they train guys in the off-season including NFL guys like Bobby Wagner, KJ Wright, Deshawn Shead, Kasen Williams, Brock Coyle, and many more. Their training is legit. Tracy's the reason Budda was ready to start as a true Freshman. A bunch of current UW players and commits train at Ford Sports Performance in the off season as extra work. He's a huge asset to UW's program.

    I don't understand the hate that 7 on 7 gets. Is it real football? No, but WR's get better at route running, their press releases, and catching the ball and QB's get better with their accuracy, timing, and decision making. Basketball players improve their shooting ability by practicing their shot without anybody guarding them so of coarse football players can get better without playing live tackle football.

    Kill yourself

    Seriously

    Sounds like practice matters.

    He makes his living off getting rich white kids to pony up cash to decrease their 40 times to a blistering 4.8 sec. Lots of speed training....ladder work and other fun goofy exercises to give kids a chance to get faster....and a chance for that D1 full ride.

    I won't question his system, results speak volumes. Buuuuut, the way he tries to take credit for his "young bulls" irritates the piss out of me. Even when they have moved onto major programs he will lay claim to their success and while he certainly played a part in all that, I think it's creepy the way he keeps inserting himself into these dudes lives. Plus if you have ever attended a May Madness event you will see who these guys really are. Profiteers. Which is fine, just own that.

    That's called marketing in that line of business

    Minor news, but this should help further solidify the FSP to UW pipeline, which is huge given how much elite in-state talent is coming through in the next few years
    For some reason the tweet got deleted but ICYMI, Tracy Ford hired Damion Turpin and some other former Husky DB as trainers. Here's this too...

    Don't look now, but our own bored TBSers have touched a raw nerve with the father of Li'l Gee after Ford touted the USC offers of some of his clients.

    Oh nos! You'd hope parents would be a little more discerning about, you know, facts and stuff. I don't WANT kids to go to USC to fail, it just seems to happen at an alarming rate.
