More About Coach Ryan T.

As a demonstrated leader with measurable success both on and off the field, my experience in high school and collegiate athletics combined with my education makes me an incredible football coach. I played both football and baseball in high school at Canton McKinley High School in Canton, Ohio and 4 years of college football at Kentucky State University located in Frankfort, Kentucky. I graduated from Kentucky State University with a BS in Computer Science and Mathematics.

Through my experience and coursework, I have laid the groundwork and continue to refine my skills in coaching. I am currently an Assistant Coach (Wide Receivers/Return Specialist) at Fern Creek Traditional High School, in Louisville, Kentucky. I am responsible for individual practice regiments, position specific weight training and pre-game preparation. I build strong relationships with my athletes through communication and mutual respect.

Furthermore, my ability to invigorate young people with the spirit of teamwork, leadership and passion will create a dynamic work environment resulting in success for the athlete both on an off the field. I am excited about this opportunity to help any young athlete reach their full potential.

I offer coaching tactics to all athletes looking to increase overall technique as Wide Receivers and Defensive Backs. For Wide Receivers; I work on stance, start, releases, body control, correct catching technique, route running and down-field blocking. For Defensive Backs; I work on stance, back pedal, coverage (zone and man to man) and tackling (head up and angle).

Agility techniques will be done with various cone and ladder drills. This will help with back pedaling, route running techniques, body control, down-hill form and flexibility
(every session will begin with stretching)

My catching techniques will be done with various ball drills:
- Standing still
- Forward jogging
- Lateral jogging
- Angle jogging

Route running techniques will be done by first learning the route tree and learning how to use your body, eyes and and hands while running a route.

Blocking techniques will be taught by showing body, hands and head placement. Also how to keep a good base and how to move your feet while blocking.

Back pedaling techniques will be done by first learning foot placement, body posture, where to have your eyes and hands while in coverage.

Tackling techniques will be done with various cone and bag drills.

Coach Ryan T. has taught me more about my position in one day than my high school football coaches taught me in a month. He keeps it real, is professional, and definitely knows what he's doing. And above all else, he is in it to see you succeed.

Working with Coach Ryan definitely made me feel more confident on the field and gave me a new perspective on the game.

My grandson just finished his second session with Coach Ryan and I am extremely impressed with his techniques. When I think of coaching, I think back to 30 years ago watching my dad coach High School football and the legacy he left. Why? Because his coaching went far beyond the X’s and O’s. He made a difference in the lives of his student athletes. Coach Ryan exhibits this same style of coaching. He is a great life teacher as well as a great coach. He stresses the importance of academics, leadership, and respect. In just two sessions he has taught drills and techniques which not only has notably improved my grandson’s athletic ability but also has given him some self-confidence to believe in himself.
I highly recommend Coach Ryan. He is very committed and passionate about helping improve and make a difference in a young person’s life – both on and off the field.

Coach Ryan T. has done a fantastic job of understanding my son’s skill level and devising a plan for quick improvements. He is also very patient and committed to developing my son’s skills and playing ability.

Ryan is an excellent coach. He was flexible on location and his communication prior to the session was great. He worked with my son and gave him the one-on-one attention we wanted for him. Ryan knew exactly what to work on to address the issues we mentioned. In addition to teaching valuable drills, he also explained why the drills were important and continued to point out things that can only come from years of coaching experience. We were very happy with our first session and my son really enjoyed it. He learned many things that I could not teach him. We will be scheduling future sessions with Ryan and definitely recommend him as a coach.

Coach Ryan was great. He gave my son the attention he wouldn't be able get from his own coach. He work on all of the areas to make my son a top notch receiver. I would definitely recommend Ryan to other atheletes.

Ryan T. Montgomery is a coach that knows education is 1st when being a student-athlete. Anytime a Coach still has past players calling, seeking advice whether in sports, school, and life that speaks volumes about his Coaching abilities and what being a Coach really means to him. Our youth must know that the bus doesn't stop at High School, that is just a stepping stone to get to the next level. He is a person who demonstrates the core values of a man who respects and cares about our youth.
As a graduate of the 2010 Canton McKinley class I had a problem with authority I didn't respect any of my coaches. When Ryan T. Montgomery came we clashed but he never folded he always demanded my respect and he eventually got it. Through his guidance I became a great player for Canton Mckinley but it wasn't all about football with him he made me a better person. I can honestly say Ryan cares about me still to this day even 4 years out of High School and has played a big role in my success on and off the field, other receivers will say the same.
