I was conned into thinking the Air 7 quarterback university would be a positive experience for my son. You are dupped into thinking your child is one of a select few being recruited for this program by a well written brochure and that he would receive special one on one training from current or former NFL professionals.
As I was researching the founder of the company, Rich McGuinness, I discovered he shares the same address as a marketing company that specializes in specific target marketing. The MAPHX Company will assist you in messages and methods to specific target markets. High school athletes is a lucritive one. His phone # is shared by Sportslink Inc, Techniqueclinics.com, New Jersey Football Coaches Assoc. As well as Army National Combine.
My son attended the camp in San Antonio Feb 1st and 2nd along with a great many "select invitation only athletes". The camp was way overbooked.
My son complained that the taller QB's were given special attention and they were in long lines between reps.By Sunday my wife had seen enough and went to a staff member to look at our son's stats. That is when we discovered there were two boys wearing the same #43. They had no clue my son was there. My wife spoke to a staffer (Tim Silo) who told her he would look into getting a refund. These people are out for your money, the marketing strategy is working, but it is a RIPOFF...
