An update straight from the source:
Dear Drive Nation Family,
It's been brought to my attention that there have been a lot of false statements put in the sports community here in the DFW metroplex. So I wanted to personally address the lies!
Over the last five years we have built one of the most dominant programs in the country. There have been a lot of incredible coaches, directors, management, parents, and athletes that have had hands in with the growth and success of Drive Nation Sports! Make no mistake, it's been challenging to continue to find that perfection through success and failure. But the ability of student-athletes using their time here and the Drive Nation platform to get to college has been incredibly inspiring. With over 150 Division 1 Athletes coming out of Drive Nation over the last 5 years we are excited and getting geared up for the next 5 years of athletes.
With that being said I am “NOT LOOKING TO CLOSE DRIVE NATION”! Yes, I am planning to move the club away from the airport because of my differences with them. However, we will be relocating in the near future and I will continue to improve every aspect of the club!
Cheers to the future of Drive Nation!
Sincerely,
Jermaine O’Neal
Fast forward one year and seven months, and the club has been moved and sold, according to a friend's mom who plays there. Business is business. For those that live closer to the new location, there is a bit more joy other than they no longer have a state of the art weightroom and are sharing the gym with TAV right now. There seems to be a lot of movement of clubs and changes here in late 2024. Who knows what has brought about these moves. But I digress. For Drive Nation families, there is a lot of uncertainty in the future. Oh well, there are worst things in life.
