Despite our sze, we won the unofficial state championship against a school with almost twice our enrollment. Our athletes were simply too good -- the only thing the opposing team could produce in that championship game was minus 77 yards! I also coached track, and 11 of our uys could throw the discus between 140 and 180 feet. If you couldn't throw 155 feet, you were a JV guy; to this day I don't believe any high school has ever been able to say that. And we had bunches of kids who could bench 300, squat 400 and power clean 250 pounds -- lifts that college athletes would be proud of.<BR>My next challenge was as head football coach at a high school in Idaho. I inherited a team that was 0-6 and had lost homecoming 72-0; the kids were so dispirited that they just quit, forfeiting their last three games. We trained hard, and the following year our team won the country championships and scored a fantastic 29-16 victory over the team that had beat us 72-0. And this is despite the fact thamonths to help her through the trauma of chemotherapy. Brooks was subsequently released by the Rams, and he turned down offers from both the Saints, Cowboys and the Jaguars.<br> As his wife s health began to improve, Brooks signed with the Cardinals (over the Jaguars and the Broncos) in the 2000 season and reunited with his offensive line coach from the Rams, George Warhop. Again Brooks made the final roster; and when the starter at left tackle L.J. Shelton became injured, Brooks saw more playing time.  Shelton went down the first play of the first gae, so I got to play that whole game, and then the following two games I started. However, at the end of the season the Cardinals decided not to extend players who had missed significant amounts of practice time, as Brooks had in caring for his wife. Brooks was immediately picked up by the Broncos.<br>In Februry 2001 tragedy struck again, and this time Jackie lost her battle with cancer. There would be no football for Brooks this year.  When Jackie passed away I just really wasn t 100 percent focused on football, says Brooks. When he was eventually able to handle his irreparable loss, Brooks knew he had a lot of work to do if he was to play again. He needed to get back in shape, and he needed to do it quickly.<br>The Poliquin Factor<br><br>Throug his brother Fletcher, who is now a track and strength coach at Williams College, Brooks learned about Charles Poliquin, co-owner of the Poliquin Performance Center in Tempe, Arizona. Poliquin s pro ster and stronger. It is very simple -- if you want to make your success happen and unlock your full potential as an athlete, you must use the key <BR>Tday, about 95 percent of college strength coaches use the methods I learned from George in one form or another. The remaining fiv percent focus on a different approach, with injury prevention as the pr@H) ҈( 9i*µQT{+ Hd@{oݭ·T`YP=F6$"f{ڍLmOOXȊ(uٮ+(Lrn&7dlۂ>A!.DI/OMH߆p̀Z[JDHbęHh{oҦ]J7:%R&(:5C!"} m1M,.wj 1i%q*KO,Ib,qj|Y6k}4IUږ$6,-F)Y8(0Z܏x6wP3YI1~7"%$ns.B$_uSÕ^H¼gtR41\Asp_B&.I"Вbywd!IRA04^L[;9lu%H]h o;HG7Ftԛ=d„ʠMR}=qayL DHާi}|Lh!x k+q!y(pcs5VIˀ<GJ4qǏ{t` }pWZH`>p?W'Z x'W8W75LJG[Zk]mkkSA!hD.I.6iRԓɧt*rNPId XdIAW@:pdAuh~ -JUGTfYYr.Z]q!['1D9FX-N T)p 0ʡaVrY0B5bht';;B4ٓ$?w[Ixt-Y}2`i[>Zȅbs`o,iw"0ܫ㦿]cMB+l/nƒcV5kڥmAyiMoS`IojL\if]`ȷȎq;@q\_k&Pok9޳eN4``O$7=iVXѮ$:+zp~dTɎG3v(ih1 CRYȑ2nbgQɅw7Grvvu4^r)F|>#b־Ц-QGl#fݻg1ϖ;VBmƏwsARKSçY,$8*WmoQvwhl;\{(I *c=CWi.Y#R ?R/j21wlc5ݓ
