we are a very fast paced 2-platoon team and i hate when during 7-on-7 the other OC huddles his kids up forever thumbing through a makeshift playbook and drawing plays in the dirt. refs always seem surprised when i ask for a play clock too boring. takes my kids out of their normal rhythm. probably why some teams do it but i hate it.

Why does that irritate you? What's the big deal? Not trying to be difficult, just trying to understand why how the other team chooses to implement their play calling effects you? For the record, I do this. Not offended just trying to understand why it offends you. Seems odd to me.
I figured those coaches were former linemen who hate QBs, make them run 30-40 yard sprints back and forth all game.
They do and I am:)

During a school day at the end of last semester my class was watching the state championship games on TV. A few of my seniors who cannot add 2+2 kept going on about how we needed new plays for the next year, as we watched two 14-0 teams run our offense. They had no idea.

When a team has the QB has run over to the sideline between every snap to get the next play. I am sure there are many on here that do it and they have their reasons for it and it works for them, but that irritates me beyond belief. What is funny is this pisses me off also! And my qb's sometimes do it!! I yell at them 10 times a game to quit coming over here. We signal in and yell in plays, but yet, they will sometimes just come over to me. LOL

LOL Had a WR who would always come super close to our sideline to see the signal even if he was on the far sideline. Then he would run all the way to his position to get set. This completely defeated the purpose of being no huddle. Turned out he needed glasses and never got tested for them. Also have a running back who seems to lose one of his contacts every game!

I used to send the play call into the huddle with a WR until for 8 straight plays they forgot the play and formation and just called something else. My QB came to the sideline for the rest of the game.

A few of my seniors who cannot add 2+2 kept going on about how we needed new plays for the next year, as we watched two 14-0 teams run our offense. They had no idea. Whenever I see the Facebook page spread offense post something, i always see a comment from a guy tagging a coach saying: "we need this." Or "we should run this." And like clock work the coach tagged in the post responds and says something like: "we run this. If you came to practice more often you'd know that.

Right now I'm getting tired of all the motivational poster coaches on Twitter. Maybe I'm just being a d!ckhead but jeez sally sunshine it's not that serious.
For the record, I'm a pretty positive person but these guys come off as trite.

Right on, coachsmyly! I also hate it when guys home page on Twitter states that he is "husband, coach, father, provider, builder of men, champion of the masses." Then they tweet every time they leave the house and go to work or when they watch Hudl or supervise the weight room. Doing work... Grinding... Putting in work... Jeez.

We coach our guys not to waste a timeout on punt team. Our protector counts to make sure we have 11 guys before calling the cadence, we tell him that if we are short just don't call it and we'll try to run somebody on in time but if we run out of time we'll just take the 5 yard penalty. Of course one time about 7 or 8 years ago our protector didn't go out there when we called punt team. Never got a real clear answer on who actually called the cadence or how the ball got snapped, but it did and of course the punt was blocked. That made me rage. Which reminds me of one of the main things that makes me rage: Personnel mistakes in the kicking game. We came up with something that we think might help. One of the biggest problems is guys who are hurt but see the trainer without telling any of the coaches. What we're going to do (Haven''t actually tried it yet) is, at games, assign a manager to the trainer. Her job is to report to the ST coach and the appropriate position coach any time that a player sees a trainer.

He does have bulletproof logic though. I've eaten burgers for a long time from many different cooks. My favorite ones to eat are the ones that if I were cooking it I would want to eat it. This was a good laugh

The best part is he has a whole series of these things, how to catch a football, how to run perfect routes, how to run a football play, how to tackle, how to block....his blocking video with a 9 year old is classic. Think I am going to start introducing myself....Coach Morris Sunbelt alumni
The best part of this was he was showing us how to throw a football. Would like to be a fly on the wall and see Darrin Slack watch this video.

Just wish I had bookmarked it for future reference.

Part of it could be that we don't huddle and I'm not used of the time it takes to run over and back, just want to get to the next play. Perhaps I worded my initial post poorly and made it seem like it was a bigger deal to me than it actually is. Its like someone with 20 items in the 15 items or less line, or someone accidently cuts you off, it doesn't really effect you and is no big deal but when it happens its frustrating for a bit.

It's like if Uncle Rico and the fake Donavan McNabb from Always Sunny had a child. This video hurts. You will want to turn it off. Dont do it. You will be a stronger person for making it through something this bad.

The only time I could see that being useful is 4th and a long mile, and make sure your safeties know to bat the ball down. We played "the team that never punts" a few years ago, 4th and long they pull up and throw it to the 5 yd line, you can guess what happened next. Our ball on the 2 instead of the 45.

Our ball on the 2 instead of the 45. had a team play us that way in real football once...had two D1 defensive tackles...played 2 man, so against any spread formation it was five in the box...didn't matter, couldn't run the ball, couldn't even run the qb on a lead draw, that's 6 blockers vs 5 and we got nothing to then we had the brilliant idea do go trio and just run all three on verts and run buck sweep strong, ideally we just have to outflank a 5 technique with no force support behind him and we've got an alley puller looking for the high safety.....but when your guards pulled away the two DT's just grabbed them and pulled them down...no lead blockers...tough loss that one

we played a spread team in the finals this year. played with 5 in the box all day. they got us for a few first downs on draws and that's about it. played either a 4-1 box or 3-2. our one ILB was first team all state and we rotated about 7 DL. mixed in 2 man, 4, and 2. gave up 14 points. one TD came on a 1 yard drive after weird KO. other drive was aided by about 4 (some bogus) penalties. 2 man and that setup does have it's place i guess.
