Tim Tebow Eye Black Verses

Coaches,

I pray that you are having a wonderful and fruitful CHRISTmas season and are off to a great New Year.

Here below are the verses Tim Tebow has worn on his eye black over the past two seasons.

For the National Championship game last year close to 94 MILLION people searched for John 3:16 on Google within 24 hours of the game. It was the most searched for item. This continued for most of this year as well. Google Trends shows the top searched items every day - and whenever Florida played - you could find Tebow's eye black verse in the top 5 every single week.

The impact YOU and YOUR PLAYERS can have on others is staggering. I pray that you and your coaching staff really soaks this in - and it realizes it 100%. You CAN help change the world.
