Buda Johnson Jaguars Football: Building on Momentum in 2025 As Buda Johnson High School enters its fifth year of varsity football, the Jaguars are charging into the 2025 season with a renewed focus on effort and accountability. Head Coach Sam Carlin and his staff are determined to build on last year’s historic playoff run, pushing their team to higher standards both on and off the field. Offseason Focus: Culture & Commitment Coach Carlin emphasizes that the primary goal this offseason has been reinforcing a strong team culture based on effort and accountability. With a mix of returning talent and emerging young players, this approach is essential to maintaining the competitive edge that has defined the Jaguars’ rapid ascent. Player Development: 7-on-7 and Lineman Challenges The Jaguars are actively participating in Texas 7-on-7 State Qualifying Tournaments (SQT) and Lineman Challenge Competitions. These events not only refine on-field skills but also help strengthen team chemistry during the summer grind. Key Losses, New Opportunities The team faces the tough challenge of replacing two standout players—an All-State Running Back and the Defensive Player of the Year. While these departures leave big shoes to fill, they also create opportunities for others to step up and shine. Players to Watch: Speed, Skill & Breakout Potential Among those expected to rise are wide receivers Keane McGettrick and Tim Mata. McGettrick has shown exceptional work ethic and improvement this offseason and is poised for a breakout senior campaign. Mata, known for his blazing 10.5-second 100-meter dash, brings game-changing speed that could be a key asset in stretching defenses. Strength & Conditioning: Foundation of Success Heading into their fifth varsity season, the Jaguars continue to emphasize physical development. The weight room remains a cornerstone of the program, shaping a team that’s physically tough and mentally resilient. Team Nutrition: Work in Progress While no formal nutrition program is in place yet, the coaching staff continues to encourage smart habits around fueling performance and recovery. Coaching Mindset: Always Improving Coach Carlin puts it simply: “We are planning to be better.” The staff is using this offseason to evaluate, adjust, and refine every aspect of their approach—from scheme updates to leadership development—to ensure the team is ready for the fall. Community First Community is at the heart of everything the Jaguars do. Whether it’s supporting local events or engaging with fans and families, the team prides itself on being a unifying force in Buda. Challenges Ahead: Youth Movement A major storyline heading into the season is the reliance on several first-year varsity players. While the team is brimming with potential, gaining game experience quickly will be critical in navigating a tough schedule and maintaining playoff aspirations. As the 2025 season approaches, Buda Johnson is a team to watch—motivated by the past, driven by the present, and hungry for what’s next.
