Lions' Dan Campbell delivers awesome message about high school football amid college football chaos

As college football has descended into chaos amid NIL and players returning from the NFL to play collegiately again, high school football is the last amateur level that is truly pure.

With high school football season getting underway, Detroit Lions head coach Dan Campbell detailed what makes it so special in a message to young kids.

"You guys grew up together, and I know this: we've got a couple of coaches that have seniors.

They have seniors that are opening up tonight.

And man, you never forget your senior year for sure.

You don't forget all of them, but man, wherever you're at, make the most of it because you're not guaranteed to be able to get a chance to play and be with those guys that you grew up with.

Enjoy the game at that level," Campbell told reporters on Thursday.

It's a special time.

Enjoy it," Campbell said.
