Board Drill Podcast | Coach Justin Roberts (Eagles Landing Christian Academy) In this episode of the Board Drill Podcast, Kyle and Matt sit down with Coach Justin Roberts, Head Football Coach at Eagles Landing Christian Academy. We kick things off by revisiting one of the wildest games we’ve ever been a part of (42–14 at half 👀), and then dive into what really matters — building a program, handling momentum swings, and the lessons you only learn the hard way.
