Forrest Hightower is a former professional defensive back whose career reflects resilience, versatility, and championship success, spanning the NCAA, CFL, and NFL before transitioning into coaching and player development — including an NFL Coaching Fellowship and multiple seasons as an Assistant Strength and Conditioning Coach with the New York Jets.
"My philosophy is to build complete defensive backs who are technically sound, mentally sharp, and physically prepared," he says, emphasizing that "a great DB is consistent and disciplined." On what matters most: "The most important skill I want every DB to master is control under pressure. That means keeping your feet clean, your eyes disciplined, and your confidence steady, no matter the situation."
