- if you have milk with your oatmeal than you could do without the eggs in which case you could have them in your afternoon meal
- a prtoein shake is ideal after training, solid food takes too long to digest therefore your recovery probbaly won't be as complete as it could be...than have the next meal you have there
- what's the football on college days (training, playing ???) you won't needmuch training these days and it would be best to do wts before football and cut out the cardio

- you'll need to lower your training volume too and ONLY USE COMPOUNDS probably 3 a session ecspeciaslly if doing wts on football dayts


on football days you'll a shit load of cal's...

1 - fruit, oatmeal
wts
2 - shake, sugary cerial
3 - fruit, eggs, veg
football
4 - sports drink etc, sandwitches with meat and salad
5 - chicken rice, veg
6 - steak, sweet potato, veg
7 - tuna, salad

something like that...your calorie requirements will be through the roof so you'll need to pack them in..remember healthy fats too which you can et from your nuts, almonds, avocadoes, fish, tuna etc which should be added to meals 5, 6 and 7
