After his Division 1A (FBS) College Football Team Set multiple NCAA and MAC records, Jeff Genyk decided to take a year to invest in career, professional development and family during 2009. In those final two games Genyk’s team was injury free enough to implement the “Warp Speed” Offensive system.
Little did Jeff Genyk know the new system would create a buzz in the college football coaching community. Coaches like Brian Kelly (Cincinnati Head Football Coach) and Rich Rodriguez (Michigan Head Football Coach) inquired how so many plays could be run in a game. “Scoring over 50 points per game and running over 100 plays caught the eye of many spread offense coaches”.
Spending time with Coach Kelly and Rodriguez has been mutually beneficial. “You are always looking to improve as a coach, great idea exchange is an excellent way to grow and develop. The “Warp Speed” package is a fun and exciting system to coach and play in.”

Jeff has also introduced a program to help high school age kids develop and advance in their area of interest. The “Potential to Reality” program can be used by high schools to help musicians, actors and athletes get the support they need to advance in their area of interest to the highest levels. Ron Reed, Michigan High School Principal, “Potential to Reality has allowed us to focus our energy as a school and community to ensure our young people are prepared to take advantage of opportunities in the future.” “Life is all about how you respond to tough situations,” the late Randy Walker’s favorite character phrase.
