BigDave Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 I was hoping someone would put something together like this, I am having trouble gathering this information and really need some help if anyone has info on any college camp in the state. Can't find up to date schedules for summer of 2013 college camps, a lot of them are still posting 2012 schedules. Any help would be appreciated!

BigDave Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 Dav watch SFA web site they normally have a lineman camp in July that i have been told is good. I don't know if they have one that is associated with the school only, as in prospect camp. The Offensive and Defensive Lineman Camp that we went to before is no longer there, 2011 was the last year for it. It was put on by Kenny Ferro, and Pete Jenkins and they have another at Nichols State in Louisiana. They still have the one in LA., but not SFA, they told me SFA didn't want them on the practice field during the summer and the stadium turf was too hot in July, wish they'd have it somewhere else in East Texas, great camp!

Excellent camp. My brother went his freshman year and it helped a lot. Learned more there than any other camp he attended throughout high school.

Awesome camp, work the mess out of them, film work at night from Pete Jenkins and Kenny Ferro is priceless, and according to my son they had the best and most food of any camp ever!

BigDave Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 Think the schools have them posted, they were pretty typical if I remember right. In the $40 to $50 range I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eagle34 Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 Any truth to a recent NCAA rule change that disallows colleges from having camps off their campuses? If this new rule is true, their will be no camps in East Texas other than SFA's in Nac. Can someone shed light on this new rule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

purprleragedad Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 I am wondering.....do Texas H.S. Coaches let their "good" players go off to other states and do the "padded" camps?.....seems to me they are putting their kids at risk of getting hurt....I know my son was wanting to go to a "padded" camp and his Hd. coach said "I would "prefer" you NOT GO to a "padded" camp.....seems to me...it would give them a leg up on 2-a-days...especially late in the summer.....I know some states don't have athletic period and full teams go to "CAMP"....to get an "edge"....@$250 a pop...SOMEBODY IS GETTING AHEAD!!!!

I haven't been to a full pad camp with my son who is a lineman, but we have went to several that used shoulder pads and helmets, and several that was just helmets. Regardless of if they have pads or not during their one on one drills they get pretty rough, full pad rough sometime. I can understand why his coach would "Prefer" that he not go to a padded camp, but he may be actually safer if he did. Most of the camps we have went to do alot of technique work, which is just rep after rep, muscle memory stuff. The 1 on 1 drills are generally the only time they purposely have contact, speaking from a lineman standpoint. If its a multiday camp of any quality at all thats a pretty good deal compared to most that we have been to, our cheapest multiday camp with room and board was about $350 a couple of years ago. Try adding up a $800 camp, a weeks worth of motels and eating out, and an 2,400 mile road trip across country, and you'll get an idea of our typical summer vacation...aka football camp, lol! But I wouldn't want it any other way as long as he's getting something from it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MeanGreenDogs64 Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 The North Texas camp would be good for under the radar kids. Coach McCarney is known for giving kids that are not heavily recruited scholarships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vonerick Posted April 4, 2013 Author Share Posted April 4, 2013 Haven't heard about the rule of not allowing in-state colleges hold camp off thier campus. But a couple years ago the NCAA stop allowing colleges to hold camp out of their own state. OSU had to stop holding a camp in Kilgore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
