TJ Football 2025 Frank Brettschneider Jaguar Forever Speech

Описание: TJ assistant coach Frank Brettschneider has long been known as a master motivator, but the speech he delivered in the locker room before the McKeesport game may have been his finest moment yet. In a room filled with emotion, he spoke directly to the heart of what defines TJ Football — the family, the legacy, and the relentless work that built this program into one of the premier forces in the state.
He didn’t shy away from the pain the team carried. He talked about the tragic loss of former quarterback Brad Dawson, a moment that shook the entire TJ community. But instead of asking the players to carry the impossible weight of “playing for Brad,” he challenged them to do something deeper. He told them not to play the game for Brad — but to play it like Brad would have played it. With toughness. With joy. With fearlessness. With that unmistakable TJ edge.
In that moment, his message became more than motivation. It became a reminder of who they are, who they represent, and the standard that has been passed down through generations. His words didn’t just prepare them for a game — they connected them to the spirit of a teammate, a brother, and a legacy that will always be part of TJ Football.
