They said football wasn't worth teaching.
I grew up in NFL locker rooms. My dad. My uncles. My cousin. All played in the league. I spent my life around the best DBs on the planet — and watched every year as talented high school kids got passed over because nobody taught them the art.
So I built the system I wish I had.
See How It WorksThe lost art of playing DB.
Watch any college practice. Every offense coach in America can draw up 50 route concepts. Every QB coach has 10 drills for footwork in the pocket. Every receiver has a personal trainer.
Now look at the DBs. Cones. Bags. "Backpedal, turn, run." Same three drills every coach has been running since the 90s.
Raw talent can get you to the league. Technique is what keeps you there.
This is why 40% of drafted defensive backs are out of the league within three years. It's not that they weren't athletic enough. It's that nobody ever taught them the art of playing the position.
Born into the game.
My name is Aire Justin. My father, Tyrone Justin, played for the 49ers. My uncle Sydney played for the Rams. My uncle Kerry played for the Seahawks. My cousin Airabin wore a Ravens jersey.
I grew up watching every one of them get coached by the best DB minds in the NFL. I went to Washington State, played cornerback at the D1 level, then signed contracts in the NFL, CFL, UFL, and AFL.
After my playing career I realized something. I looked at the young upcoming DBs and I realized that my story, my experience — it was something I could use as a tool to help give back. Not only teaching technique and work ethic, but accountability, integrity, communication, leadership, and respect.
Now 10+ years later, I'm blessed to have the opportunity to help a number of athletes reach their goals of playing at the college and professional levels.
I wanted to be the person I needed when I was them.
This is what the system produces.
