Meet this month’s Founder: David Morris

David Morris is the founder of QB Country, the nation’s leading quarterback training and development company. QB Country currently trains NFL, college, high school and middle school quarterbacks in twelve cities across America, with headquarters in Mobile, AL. David founded QB Country in 2010 after seven years of part-time private quarterback training. A four-year letterman and graduate of the University of Mississippi, David became the first true freshman walk-on quarterback to start in the SEC.

David’s NFL trainees include his Ole Miss teammate and two-time Super Bowl champion Eli Manning, Giants QB Daniel Jones, Raiders QB Gardner Minshew, Patriots QB Bailey Zappe, Bengals QB and former Alabama Crimson Tide star AJ McCarron, Texans QB Davis Mills, and numerous others. Nearly 20 QB Country trainees are or have been NFL starters. Since 2011, QB Country-trained college quarterbacks have won six National Championships. Currently, 156 QBC trainees are playing college football. Under David’s guidance, more than 240 QB Country high school trainees have signed college scholarships over the last seven graduating classes including 36 QBs signing scholarships in the 2022 signing class.

David is widely respected as one of the most influential voices in quarterback development and an expert on preparation for the NFL Draft. His 2024 NFL Draft Prep class includes Heisman finalist Bo Nix and UNC star Drake Maye. He has appeared regularly on a variety of regional and national media outlets for his insights and expertise on the quarterback position, including the Wall Street Journal, ESPN, CBS Sports, Sports Illustrated, USA Today, Bleacher Report, The New York Times and New York Daily News. He is a featured speaker at The Manning Passing Academy, and the Andrews Institute Injuries in Football course.

David currently resides in Mobile with his wife Blakely and their two daughters, Amelia and Meryl.
