This board has been in existence for a about two years now......
Being a barnacle on this beast since 2005, I would be curious to gauge others thoughts on how this board has affected their (specific) COACHING career.
A lot of message boards out there, what (if anything) has CoachHuey.com done FOR you (not TO you.....pending legal judgements)

This board has helped me tremendously. If I have any question, there is always a whole list of ideas and experiences to sort from. This is my home page on my computer!

I have gotten lots of good ideas on how to better teach our defense, and it is a good place to share opinions and broaden my thinking about the game of football.

It is a great sight, but has probably lowered my productivity in the classroom by 20%.

I have learned a lot since joining in January and made some great contacts with other coaches who have been fantastic sources of information and have been very willing to share that information with me. This board is a GREAT asset to any coach who wants to learn/discuss/argue/enjoy football. Thanks to Coach Huey, all the Moderators & Contributors and all the great coaches who post and share their thoughts, philosophies and advice. To me this board is worth more than clinics, because you can log on anytime and find answers to your questions.

This board is the best thing that has happened to my coaching career. This is the best thing I got out of going to the Nike COY clinic this yr, b/c that is were a fellow coach told me about it. I agree with coachBW has definately lowered my productivity!!!

This site has been a blessing. Whenever I have a question or need advice I go here first. Most of the time I don't even have to start a new thread because it's already on here. Someday maybe I'll come up with something original to post. Until that time thanks to all those Coaches out there that post away to help those of us climbing the ladder of knowledge.

It has raised my football IQ considerably, challenged me to think about a lot of things in different ways, allowed me to meet people I probably wouldn't have otherwise, provided a lot of good ideas, and given me a great feeling about the health of the coaching profession in general.

I absolutely love the ability to introduce new ideas for my program by discussing them with the "been there, done that" group of coaches. It has saved me some trial and error. I love this site---my wife on the other hand.........

This site has helped tremendously in a threefold manner.
First, I've gained knowledge about so many vast aspects of this game. Reading what these offensive gurus come up with and the reasoning behind it has helped me understand the mad scientists. The sources of knowledge (playbooks, articles, and the minds of you guys) can't be beat.
Second, it's great to be around such a great group of guys who are just as passionate about their work. To be able to talk to guys around the world (that's for Ted Seay) about this sport is awesome. I enjoy seeing the endless knowledge of guys like Huey, Tog, Phantom, Superpower, Brophy, OJW, Mav, OCinAZ, etc. It's great to share with guys who understand and appreciate.
Third, it's benefited our kids both on the field and off. Ultimately that's the goal, right? We all want our guys to be better than when we first met them. The wins are great but the development as men is even better.
I can't thank each one of you guys enough. Here's to the next few thousand guys who join!

This board is great for my development as a coach and more specifically as a coordinator. This the first board I go to when I sign on during the day. The ideas and thoughts floating around here have been just tremendous. Before CoachHuey.com I was like Al Gore, I thought I invented football... now I know I'm just a blimp on the screen.

This board is a daily clinic... minus beer and pizza (gotta be some way we can amend that...)

I am still pretty new to this site, but I absolutely love it. I keep trying to get the other coaches on my staff to join up. One day they will come around. This site has been a great tool for me. I am a brand new offensive coordinator this year and this site has helped me to eliminate crap and add new great ideas to my playbook. My girlfriend might hate this place, but I love it.

This site has improved my knowledge immensely. It's also helped me develop a network of coaches to communicate with through the PM feature as well. Great site and it gives me something to do on those one or two days a week I don't get a call to sub!!

A great place for coaches. What I like is that it is a FOOTBALL site that is not specific to one thing and the topics range from A-Z and are diverse as the coaches who contribute. The site is addicting!!! ;D ;D ;D

I'm an information junkie and this site is my fix. So far there hasn't been any question that I haven't been able to get an answer for. It's great to be able to bounce ideas off of such an extensive group of coaches and get a better understanding of the complete game. Thanks Huey.

Thanks to all the coaches here who share what they know. It's great to see that so many of us still enjoy learning about this great game.
