Father of Drayson Institute QB Client –
I continue to be impressed with how Coach Drayson teaches his material. My son has gone through serveral different coaching systems, including Dub Maddox’s R4 QB School, JT O’Sullivan’s how to beat every coverage course, Trent Dilfer and Chris Hixson’s QBiQ, and more. Coach Drayson brings new and better ways of thinking about or understanding concepts, even those he had already learned from others.
