Who knows? Maybe a scholarship but for sure my performance would have been greatly advanced.<br> If you want to be good, you can never stop improving your skills as a player and I found out that you must never stop working on developing your speed and running skills as an athlete. That goes for in-season as well as off-season.<br> I have trained with Coach Baskett for 14 of my 15 years as a player and his program has been the determining factor for my success in the NFL. Every young athlete should be striving to develop the most important asset in sports today . . . SPEED! SPEED KILLS by using SPEED SKILLS. <br><br>Editor s Note: Many BFS readers may remember Eugene Robinson from the Atlanta Falcons. The evening before the Super Bowl Eugene got involved in something stupid. He was accused of soliciting a prostitute. Teammates, coaches and fans all exclaimed,  Not Eugene Robinson. He was considered a role model. The last person to do something stupid. So why is Eugene in the BFS Journal?<br>In our Be An Eleven Student/Athlete Guidebook For Success, we devote a whole segment entitled  Even Elevens Make Mistakes. Eugene was extremely remorseful. He admitted he made a mistake. Eugene never tried to dodge responsibility for his actions. He stood and took the full wrath of the media. The charges were dropped. He did speak to a woman decoy but then drove off. Eugene paid a heavy price for a few moments of conversation. It was wrong. But, there is really nothing left to do but move on. Learn from a mistake, admit it, take the heat like a man and then move on. Eugene did this. He handled his mistake like an eleven.<br>Eugene is now entertaining offers from major TV networks to be a football commentator. BFS believes Eugene s story can be an inspiration to those who want to develop greater athletic speed as well as learning a lesson in real life.<br><br>DALE BASKETT AND BFS<br><br>I first met Coach Baskett at the NSCA Convention in Los Angeles last January of 2000. He was a featured speaker who really wowed all that heard him. We talked at length. It was like a light bulb being turned on for me. I didn t just fall off the turnip truck when it comes to speed and I have always been unsure of the total effectiveness of a track coach with a football player or athletes in different sports where change of direction was a key element of success. In other words, I have always felt that straight ahead speed does not always get the job done. I had always just shrugged my shoulders and said of a great player,  Well, he s just got football speed. <br>Coach Baskett has narrowed down his athletic speed program into three easy-to-learn components with a variety of drills to develop the kinesthetic feel for his system. What does a wide receiver do when he makes his cut? What does he do with his shoulders? His arms? His body lean? What does a c
