"Terry,
This is an update for you on one of your past students. Junior QB Austin Ernst of Cincinnati Archbishop McNicholas played QB and safety as a sophomore on McNick's 2010 Greater Catholic League champs; Ohio regional and state final four team. Recently he was invited to participate in the US Army National combine in San Antonio in 2012. This season he earned first team GCL and led the GCL Central division in passing. He was 3rd in the ESPN Elite 11 QB skills comp./ranked 7th overall as a sophomore at the regional camp at Ohio State last May. He is an honor student, student council member and school ambassador at MHS and has performed well over 100 hours of community service through MHS. Austin attended the HOBY leadership week at Miami University, Oxford Ohio this past summer. He also is the point guard on the hoops team at 6' 1" 180 lbs.
He is getting college interest for football and wanted me to tell you thanks for teaching him the fundamental steps to becoming a better QB. He said he learned how to think like a quarterback at your camps.
He has recently worked with a long time NFL QB and he told Austin his footwork was very good and wondered who taught him that-Terry Copacia of course.
Thank you for helping Austin achieve his goals."
Best regards,
EAE

"Dear Coach Copacia... with the thousands of kids you have helped over the years, I wouldn't expect that you would remember my son Kyle Weninger:
(from Kenston High School in NE Ohio and an 8th grader when he went to his first camp at Canton Hoover, when Mike Fischer was the senior QB at Kenston. We also drove up to Michigan when he was a freshman to spend a one on one day with you where you gave him personal instruction and then to four more of your camps.)
Well he graduated this month and although he did not play as a junior, he had a very nice senior year and was offered 7 seven DII scholarships. He didn't like any of the schools, (small and remote) so he'll be playing DIII in Washington DC which he's excited about. Thanks again for all the years of great instruction, and I'm confident it will serve him well as he plays in college.
Best to you and your family and much continued success in all you do Coach!"

"Coach Copacia,
Let me start off telling you that my son participated in your football camp back in June at Texas A&M Consolidated High School. I don't expect you to remember us, as I know that you see many, many young men and their dads through the year. My son was one of the youngest in the camp and probably the second or third shortest. On the second day, as we were walking across the street to the field, I stopped you to thank you for what you were doing and told you that it was the best $185 I'd ever spent.
Justin had never played football before he tried out for the seventh grade team. He wanted to be a quarterback and was selected to the "C" team as the starting QB. By the end of the season, his attitude had let him fall and he ended the season as the "C" team back-up. That's not exactly what I had in mind for him. That's when I found your website. I signed him up and we attended. You changed his attitude, his ability, and his life. He walks with his head up now, he has confidence in himself. We just found out today that he made "B" team for the eighth grade. We don't know yet if he will be the starter, but, he and I both agree that it is not important. He is so proud of himself for moving forward, I am very proud of what he has accomplished and I thank you for helping make that happen.
I just want you to know that what you are doing is making a difference in people's lives. Some you may never know about, but, I wanted to make sure that you know about this one. Thank you again and I look forward to seeing you next year."

"I wanted to touch base with you and thank you again for your efforts with Sam Pearce. We ended up moving to Nobleville, IN and he has won the starting position on the varsity squad and looks fantastic. He went to FBU and I was told by Mike Kruzcek (former offensive coordinator with the Cardinals) that he had the fewest flaws of any sophomore they had seen this year.
He has worked hard on what you taught him and the difference is unbelievable. Thanks for your expertise and coaching style. You have made a tremendous difference in his life!"

"My son attended your QB school and I would like to take this opportunity to extend our sincere thanks. He is having some real success both on and off the field and we believe (my son and I both) that your school has had a lot to do with this. He attended your school. He came out a different player. He especially grew from your leadership development segments. He now knows the expectations of his teammates, his coaches and the community. Of course the technical skills have paid off as well.
Most importantly, you impacted his character. While he has always been respectful, he seems to better understand the impact. He handles himself differently, and in a more mature manner. Your words impacted him.
In conclusion, I thank you so much for your dedication, passion and teaching skills. It has really impacted his life as a player and most importantly, as an individual.
Thanks for making a difference!"

"Terry,
We came down to the Canton Camp for two years (couldn't make it this year because of commitments) from Toronto - the only Canadian kid in your camp! Alex came to you in July of 2007 to learn how to play quarterback the proper way - you taught him and he worked hard at it - listening to everything you talked about and putting in the training time. He has transferred to Riverside Military Academy in Gainsville Georgia to play his Senior year in the United States (his dream). He just e-mailed me to tell me he has won the starting quarterback role for the Riverside Eagles for the 2009 season - very exciting.
I just want to thank you for teaching and powerful influence on my son. As a young Christian man trying to do the right thing you made it easy for him to follow his faith and his dream of competing against the best. It was truly a "God-thing " that we found you and your camp and I want to let you know you are appreciated."
Thank you again,
Greg O'Donnell

Craig Krenzel Testimonial
There's no doubt that the reason I've had the opportunity to be here and play at this level is because of what Terry Copacia taught me. He pushed me to be my best. He taught me the fundamentals of quarterbacking and reading defenses and how to handle yourself on the field.
Through my experiences with Coach Copacia, I have developed the skills that are required to play college and professional football. The importance of the drills learned in this camp cannot be stressed enough even at the college level.
