Announcing O-D Football College Prep Schools

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Offense-Defense announces opening of new college preparatory schools nationwide

Offense-Defense Sports (O-D.com) is proud to announce its latest initiative in the continued support of athletic development, academic excellence, and college recruiting support for high school athletes from around the country. Scheduled to launch in July, O-D is proud to unveil the very first of its kind South-West College Prep Football Conference - five schools organized from Texas to Oklahoma that will provide student athletes with an NCAA-compliant on-line academic curriculum customized to meet the independent needs of each prospective student athlete from remaining requisite course materials to much-needed testing improvements.

Athletically, each school and team will feature the nation's very best prospective football talent competing head-to-head in conference play while being coached by former NFL players and college coaches. Players will compete for an opportunity to play on a grand stage during Offense-Defense All-American Bowl Week.

“We know hundreds of talented young players over the years that only required a little extra academic and athletic support to attain their college football dreams,” said Rick Whittier, president of Offense-Defense Sports. “With this effort, we fully intend to provide that crucial support. Our longstanding relationships with coaches and coordinators from the SEC, B1G, Pac12, ACC, Big 12, Big East and others will serve as the college recruiting pipeline for many of these deserving young players.”

Prominent college football programs from around the country are in desperate need of a qualified and credible resource in the pursuit of academic eligibility for desired players. As South Carolina State University Offensive Coordinator Joe Blackwell put it, “The O-D College Prep Football program will quickly become a lifeline for every major college recruiting coordinator in the country.”

“In the end, it's very simple,” stated Founder and O-D Prep School Director, Randy Pippin. “We'll be ensuring excellent attitudes, preaching a commitment to improved academic performance, and establishing standards of athletic and programmatic excellence. Having academic support, top-of-the-line equipment, expert coaching, and a pipeline to the best college football programs in the country is an absolute dream come true for these esteemed young men.”
