A Few Supportive Football Comments
 

"You did a great job working with [NFL starting quarterback]. We really appreciate your help with the mental coaching to help him overcome a slump. Feel free to use me as a strong reference."  
NFL General Manager  

"The MPI analysis you conducted was very revealing, and provided a needed and different mental angle that is often lacking in football. Thanks for all your help."
Willie Gillus, Assistant Football Coach of the Winnipeg Blue Bombers of the Canadian Football League.

"Your research went very well and your attitude toward the players on the National Champion Florida Gators football team was just right, balancing a friendly yet disciplined approach."
Chris Patrick, University of Florida Assistant Athletic Director, 1997

John, Thanks for the tape and notes. They were very good! I’ll use some of them this week.
Dave Wannstedt, Miami Dolphins Head Coach, 2002

"John, I like what you are doing with the mental rating in football (“MPI”). The mental game is so important in football, but many don't realize this."
Ron Sellers , former NFL receiver, radio  interview on WAXY 790 AM in Miami, 2002

"I would like to express our gratitude for your time and lecture last week. I must say I was quite impressed. I would also like to believe it was worth at least 5 points. We beat Glades Day 21-16! What a sweet win!
Ron Ream, Athletic Director & Head Football Coach, The Benjamin School, North Palm Beach, Florida, 2000

"Even before the game you have already helped. Thanks!"
Jimmy Johnson, Miami Dolphins Head Coach, 1999

"John worked extensively with the tennis team--who had the best season in their history--and also with the football team--who went to the Rose Bowl for the first time in 67 years...John is thoroughly experienced in the practice of psychology, and especially so in Sport Psychology."
Rob Ragatz, Ph.D., Coordinator of Internship at Washington State University, 1998.

Supportive Letters from over 20 other NCAA Football Coaches who used the MPI in the 2003 and 2004 season.

"John F. Murray is the Freud of football. A sports psychologist in West Palm Beach, Fla., he devised the Mental Performance Index (MPI) for quantifying how close a team comes to mental and physical perfection."
Washington Post Sports 

"The Raiders were favored in San Diego, but the Buccaneers would win  Dr. John F. Murray, sports psychologist and creator of the Mental Performance Index, told you so. "The Football Shrink" used the MPI, which quantifies the degree to which a team performs to perfection, to forecast that Tampa Bay would dominate Oakland in Super Bowl XXXVII. His bold prediction - the Bucs would win by at least two touchdowns - was broadcast on  more than 270 radio stations in the week leading up to the game."

Arizona Republic Sports

 

"Dr. Murray, your work is excellent and the MPI is an excellent tool for football teams!"
The Sporting News Columnist Fritz Quindt, interviewed on WAXY 790 AM Radio, 2002
