Happy birthday, my love!! 🎉
Why photos of us in Nashville? Because that’s our place . where we feel the most like ourselves, where love feels easy, and where we always feel at home.
Every single year, I’m reminded how blessed I am to have you by my side. You lift me up and hold me down all at the same time. I truly wouldn’t be the man I am today or be able to do what I do without you.
Our daughters are the luckiest girls in the world to have a mom like you — someone who shows them every day what a strong, loving, incredible woman looks like. And Gunner is just as lucky to have you in his life. We all are.
I’ve watched you push through the hardest days, and I’ve watched you grow into an even more amazing person. I just wish more than anything I could be there with you to celebrate today.
Brandi, you mean everything to me and to our family. I’m so excited to spend a lifetime with you.
And I have to say… you’re like fine wine…you only get better with time 💯🥰
Happy birthday, beautiful ❤️ love always!!! Till my last breath!!! by @coachejcollins

Happy Anniversary!!
This day feels different with my best friend and soulmate halfway across the U.S. We’ve been side by side from day one, and these past six months have been challenging, demanding, and at times a straight-up struggle. But one thing I know for sure—my love for us, our family, and our life has never changed.
I am beyond blessed to have you as my wife, my best friend, and my soulmate. You are my biggest fan, and I am yours. Watching you crush your goals right now is truly remarkable. Just like you, we never stop rooting for each other.
I smile every time I think about the woman you are. One thing I know for certain! I got the best one of them all! I hope we’re blessed with another 45+ years together. My heart will always be yours. Thank you for believing in me and supporting me on this journey.
Now hurry up and get down here to beautiful Arkansas ❤️ by @coachejcollins

At SouthArk, basketball is bigger than the game. 🏀

This week we welcomed @eddowns.training into our program, and he brought exactly what our young men needed — real talk, real tools, and real energy.

Ed didn’t just run drills. He helped us lay bricks.🧱

We’re not just building players — we’re building character through culture.

Leadership. Discipline. Mindset.
That’s the foundation.

Thank you, Ed — the standard just got higher. 👊 by @coachejcollins

🔥 Welcome to the family, Josh Burnett!

Out of Valley View High School, Josh is a true floor general — tough, vocal, and fearless. He guards the full 94 feet, sets the tone on both ends, and pushes the pace with purpose. This kid brings it every single day — toughness, leadership, and a mindset that makes everyone around him better.

We’re building something special here at SouthArk, and Josh fits exactly what we’re about. Grit. Effort. Heart.

Let’s get to work.
