Joe Price can Bench 450 pounds but that's not the big thing. It's the Power Clean.<br> We are really into breaking set records. We don't worry about a one-rep max. We only try for one rep once every four weeks and that's the 5-4-3-2-1 week in the BFS system. Our players get a gold star if they break all six of their set records during the week. (The BFS System features six core lifts; each one has a set record to break each week). About 90% of our players accomplish this each week. If they get 93% of the gold stars available throughout the off-season, they get a mini gold helmet. About 90% of our players earn their helmets. Our off-season is from January to July so that is quite a commitment. You should see the faces of the kids who don't get them. We have 15 to 20 kids every year get a gold star every week for all four years.<br> Missing a workout is just not acceptable. Parents have supported us on this policy. It is rare when kids miss and our team takes care of things when it happens. We don't accept excuses. We do accept reasons. A reason is given before while an excuse is given after.<br> We were fortunate to have only one injury this year and he was out only a month. It would have been longer but he was in such great condition. I believe everything we do helps in injury prevention but you have to also be lucky. <br><br>THE AGILITY-FLEXIBILITY BLUEPRINT<br>  We do the BFS Dot Drill twice everyday and test it once a month. It is sacred as is our BFS Flexibility Program. For us, a lineman should be able to do the Dot Drill in under 50 seconds, while a back should be able to do it in under 40 seconds.<br><br>THE SPEED-JUMPING <br>BLUEPRINT<br><br> We use the BFS Just Jump for testing the Vertical Jump once a month. Every two weeks we test speed with electronic times. Today (3-31-99) we tested Danny Perry and he improved from 4.72 to 4.55. So we know we are doing alright. Quinn Gooch, running back, improved to 4.52 seconds from 4.7 in one year. Junior Kevin Amidan improved his speed from 5.4 to 4.94 seconds in only one year.<br>At one time, Joe Price weighed over 300 pounds. Scurran told him that he wouldn't let him come out for football if he didn't lose some fat. Joe responded. He got down to a lean, muscular 270 pounds. Consequently, his forty improved from over 6.0 to 5.18 in just one year.<br> We work on speed and plyometrics twice a week, says ol with a 3.8 grade point average and was involved in numerous activities and organizations. He was on National Honor Society, he was elected vice president of the school s student council, and he taught math to sixth grade students as part of a Cadet Teaching program offered at school. In his free time, he shows steers at the county fair.<br>An especially impressive fact is that T.J. is also a Drug Abuse Resistance Education (D.A.R.E) Role Model and has made a conscious decision to stay alcohol and chemical free, something he feels is imperative as an athlete.  If you are going tost stop asking. There is always other things to do like going to the movies, etc. I also believe part of leadership is being a good role model because tiny eyes are always watching. <br> It s nice to have people around you who believe in you, asserted Conrad.  I am lucky to have such wonderful parents, family, friends and teammates. <br><br>Proper Perspective<br><br>The following is
