Benjamin J. Carey doesn’t do performance—he does proof. A father, coach, and voice from New York, Benjamin forged his life from chaos into clarity, turning adversity into direction and pain into purpose. He speaks across the country on football, recruiting & NIL—on how to compete without losing your soul, how to lead young men, and how to build programs that last longer than a season.
He’s not a theorist. He’s a man who’s walked through the fire early, rebuilt himself before most people even knew what broken was, and decided that the rest of his life would be built on discipline, honor, and truth. That inner reconstruction—quiet, unseen—became the foundation for everything he teaches.
As President & Co-Founder of Long Island Elite Football, Benjamin helps shape the standard for character, culture, and player development on and off the field. He coaches and speaks with the same edge he brings to life itself: no excuses, no shortcuts, and no pretending. Every word comes from something earned.
Years ago, a life-saving open heart surgery challenged him. He answered by running the New York City Marathon exactly one year later. Sobriety at eighteen taught him that a man’s strength isn’t in how low he gets—it’s in how long he stands when everything goes silent. Those chapters never made him bitter; they made him bulletproof.
In Byronic Heroes: The Podcast, Benjamin expands the arena—bringing a raw, reality-style lens to fatherhood, football, and culture. It’s not curated. It’s lived. Across platforms, he’s building a media presence that feels like life itself: unfiltered, grounded, and guided by code.
When he steps on a stage—or into a locker room—he doesn’t talk at people. He calls them forward. Whether it’s a keynote, a staff session, or a talk with players, his message stays the same: your past doesn’t define you—your standards do.
