On this week's episode of Long Island Legends Podcast, we are welcoming Elite QB's James Brady!
James Brady is the founder of Elite QB, one of the most respected quarterback training operations on the East Coast. A standout QB himself — St. Anthony's Class of '08, two-time NYCHSFL champion, and Daily News Player of the Year — James went on to play at Georgetown and the University of New Hampshire before turning to coaching. He served as Offensive Coordinator and later Head Coach at Long Island Lutheran, then took his quarterback training business full-time in 2016. Since then, he's developed over 100 All-State quarterbacks, 20+ Long Island champions, and the 2026 #1 nationally ranked QB, Dia Bell, with trainees committing to programs like Michigan, Texas, Navy, Syracuse, and the Ivy League. Beyond mechanics, James is as passionate about mindset, entrepreneurship, and personal development as he is about the game.
