Thad Wells is a former five-time head football coach, state champion, and AFCA 35 Under 35 honoree, widely respected for his innovative approach to leadership and program-building. After spending over 20 years in the game — including a coaching stint at the University of Virginia under Bronco Mendenhall — Thad stepped away from traditional coaching after reaching “Rock Top” at age 30: peak success, but with a hollow feeling inside.

That moment sparked a new mission: to help others pursue not just success, but significance.

Today, Thad is the founder of Coach Drive, the first private collective designed to help coaches grow their programs, careers, and impact. He also leads Tackle Life, a leadership platform helping men make high-pressure decisions and lead with clarity. His storytelling has reached over 20 million views on X, connecting deeply with purpose-driven coaches and competitors across the country.

Thad is also the founder of Rooski, a powerhouse of football coaching content and strategy.

At his core, Thad is a husband, father of five, and a man of faith who’s passionate about building lives we don’t need to escape from — both on and off the field.
