Quarterback Austin Reed attends weekly workout with Coach John Brantley III
This past week St. Augustine High School Jackets Varsity Quarterback Austin Reed traveled to Jervey Gantt Park in Ocala to work out with quarterback instructor and High School football coach John Brantley III. John Brantley III is a former University of Florida quarterback and the father of former Gators quarterback John Brantley IV. Coach Brantley is the only person in the State of Florida who has won state championships as a player, Assistant Coach, and Head Coach, and is a former Manning Passing Academy coach and Under Armor advisor. Coach Brantley has recently accepted the Head Coach position for Belview High School (Ocala – Class 5A) after spending several years as the Head Coach for Trinity Catholic (Ocala), where he won two state championships and appeared in 2 other state championship finals.
In addition to Coach Brantley, former Purdue Quarterback Rob Henry provided valuable coaching at the passing camp. The camp was made up of high school varsity quarterbacks and receivers from the surrounding Ocala area. Austin participated in a number of game-play development drills and received excellent instructions in passing technique and body mechanics.
