Getting that first contract can be an absolute grind, man. You need everything to line up perfectly to finally put pen to paper. It took me over a year and a half and over a dozen trials, combines, try-outs, etc before I finally got my opportunity, then you just have to run with it. Keep pushing, Griff! Best of luck
Not always man.. I grinded like a fvkin b!tch.. i swear on my grave.. Just hours an hours an hours of training, games, more and more and more... am I one the best technical players in the east coast? 100% w out a damn question.. You watch neymar play? Ok well i'm a replica of it so nothing different.. if anything different is im probably more techy. Its all about who you know and a lot of luck. Simple as that
@@gdiddy2274 my g i played bundesliga 2🤣🤣 nothin guarenteed out here. Political asf too.. Long story short, i dawg on everyone and it sucks bc they can never get the ball.. almost as if you have no power to control anything and its just happening to you lol
Hey man I’ve been following your channel for a while and you have great content, as for your soccer journey keep going man never give up! You’re a great player keep believing always! 🙌👏😎😌⚽️
Journey is a beautiful thing brother. We continue to go everyday non stop, believing that God will open the right doors at the right time. You’re a fantastic player, you’ll find your team. Trust me.
I just want to let you know that you are crazy at soccer and will get to prove you chance agian. Just keep your head up. after seeing all your videos, it makes me want to play in college just like. You motivated me to keep my head up and never stop. Thank you❤
Keep your head up, bro. God put this obstacle in front of you for a reason get through the obstacle. Keep your head up and stay healthy and come back stronger.
Can you try flying to Central America I feel like going to smaller countries and having more opportunities can really help you a lot especially with experience
I dont know if it's just me, but when you are making those noises, it makes me think of the equivalent of a boxer doing the same when throwing punches.
Bro you should try join some teams down in Australia and New Zealand. They've just expanded the A League to include a new team Auckland FC. The A League is similar quality to MLS.
For finishing try keeping your head down on the ball all the way through your shot with the same power you’ll hit consistent screamers that stay just under the bar.
Keep your head up kid o as you started everything happens for a reason. God is good everyday and everyday god is good. Hope to see you on day in the MLS. God speed!!!
Hey man really enjoying your videos. I’m 22 currently and wondering if I could walk to my local community college team in the fall. I'm serious and dedicated and play in an 8v8 league as well as training. Played at JV level in high school. Can i make the comeback in one summer?
What a weak foot. Also thank you for these videos I'm 13 years old and my dream is to become pro. I know a lot of people are saying you can't do it you aren't good enough and you have to start in like an academy from when your 8 years old but its my dream. But anyways these videos are what I look up to and how I base my training sessions. If someday I become pro I'm gonna talk about this channel and try to make it famous.
@@estebanmazier8004 playing makes you better not worse, you can play with anyone what matters is how you are playing. Yeah it's true playing with better players than you will help improve more but it doesn't mean playing with juniors will make you down
@@AdityaBag14i kinda agree but disagree, i feel like since he played at a high level he knows the level wouldn’t be as good as it is as the collegiate level he’s played at. Maybe that’s why he wouldn’t get better because maybe the tempo/ rhythm of play is too slow and sluggish.
@@AdityaBag14 right and wrong when it’s that much of a difference imo but also seems like he wanted to work his week foot and do his own specific stuff so another good reason to not play n
aye griffin and ben is aiden and i play for my hs team and htx dynamo academy can you give all of us a vid on how to get offers on the college level. I want to end up playing in college but i have no idea how. I also emailed Griffin abt this so check that as well
Why not go abroad? U would not have to wait as long to go on trials/preseason and if u have a relative (parent or grandparent) that was an eu citizen then u can get an eu passport which makes it way easier
I don't know man, those ankles never really come back 100%. Just saying bro. I'd give it another year but after that you gotta kinda start thinking about the real world. I played for St. John's way back in the day, got my degree and started making money. I know a lot of guys that chased the dream into their late 20s only to have to enter the workforce way way behind their piers. I also think you kids train way too much nowadays. So much stress on your knees and legs and, in your case, the ankle. I always preferred and believed just playing in games of any sort was better than doing tons of drills on your own and stressing the body beyond its norms.
12 times around the pitch under 4:30? Nah man US Soccer is fucked. They try to prove your "fitness" by making you run like a fucking animal. European football is not like that

You are a beast. Don’t let this minor set back affect your mindset. It’s simply a matter of time before we see you in the big leagues
You should make a video of your typical pre season favorite gym and cardio exercises also diet on how you built muscle!

Should’ve came to the Independence for preseason boss man! Good luck in your professional journey!
Bro im a big fan of u so I have every soccer or football item like ballls and cleats every u have I’m a big fan keep up the good work
Doing that drill killed me
i know how you fell it’s not easy but i hope you get the chance you deserve
Great job
I dont know if it's just me, but when you are making those noises, it makes me think of the equivalent of a boxer doing the same when throwing punches.
Good luck w ur dreams bro
Congrats Griff!!
Saw Hartford post and was like, this guy looks familiar 😂
The cross workout at 8:00 I think shows why you're not professional. Professionals take less time to adjust after the cutback.
Totally agree, he is doing 4 extra steps before even shooting.
Bro you should try join some teams down in Australia and New Zealand. They've just expanded the A League to include a new team Auckland FC. The A League is similar quality to MLS.
For finishing try keeping your head down on the ball all the way through your shot with the same power you’ll hit consistent screamers that stay just under the bar.
W work ethic ❤
I've been doing this work out as a girl for two weeks and it's been great, I play better
😊
stay on that grind man keep it up!
Your set up class
Keep your head up kid o as you started everything happens for a reason. God is good everyday and everyday god is good. Hope to see you on day in the MLS. God speed!!!
Your weak foot is so good how’d you get it that good!😅
I wish the best for you bro
Just wanted to say your a beast bro 🔥🪖

Hey what’s up man,
Have you thought about playing over seas?
Keep training, your time to go pro will come whether it's with another MLS Next Pro. Maybe even with Ben in the USL1
Yo ur really good I wanna be as good as u😀😀
I’m also a u13 Left back do you have any tips on how to progress and also some ideas for solo training sessions
Feel like I played against you before. You grew up in Jersey?
Hi is your pushups and pull-ups for a training plan or just to get muscle
We didn’t kick you off I asked u to play with us 😂
Someone that was a standout D1 player ain’t gonna waste his time playing with a high school team

Did you play for Monmouth University because I go there now.
he did
everyone sub to this man!
Is no one gonna talk about how lucky he is to have his right foot as his weak foot 😂 😂 😊
Post more vids 😢
I have to train in 98 degree weather 😂
Do you have an agent, or do you figure out connections and trials yourself?
Good luck
What happened to Ben? Do you still keep in touch with him?
Siu😊
Unfortunate man. Stay with it and keep pushing 👊
what happened to him
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

can you give all of us a vid on how to get offers on the college level. I want to end up playing in college but i have no idea how.
I also emailed Griffin abt this so check that as well
i think you should move to eu so that you could play in good clubs
This title type of stuff my uncle says
Why not go abroad? U would not have to wait as long to go on trials/preseason and if u have a relative (parent or grandparent) that was an eu citizen then u can get an eu passport which makes it way easier
What about Ben
Bro india we play in 37 degree😂😂

Bros never played football
@@tgmyfddjbddf who
nah he just couldnt make it. it is what it is. just wasnt good enough.
Damn, this did not age well at all lmaooooo
So will you never go pro
Your breathing technique is bad af bro
You're not a pro because you're worse than all the other players that coaches have to choose from. Simple as that.
