Hey coaches, I have been searching and it seems like there is alot less colleges doing spring coaches clinics these days. I was fortunate to attend Eastern Michigan's "chalk talk", and Ohio State has one coming up soon but I would be interested to hear about any others. I will link what I have found below Ohio State (April 11-13) ohiostatebuckeyes.com/sports/2020/2/14/coaches |

I think UGA had theirs back a couple of weeks ago. We've been going there for a few days over the last 5 years. The staff was there 03/19-21 and I think their clinic was either the on the 21st or 22nd
I didn't stay, just road down with the team and road back on the bus with kids on the 19th.

Hey fellow coaches, I was wondering if you guys had the same problem with football grip my team has, specifically in the rain. During practice we typically bring 25-30 leather Wilson balls, but after a session in the rain all of them get water logged or dry out and become hard. It’s not worth spending all this money replacing leather balls for a practice so we use composite balls, but they do not replicate the authentic leather. Does anyone else have the problems of: 1. Preventing leather deterioration from water 2. Rejuvenating the leather after being ruined by water 3. Maintaining sustainable grip in the rain
Thanks

I never took 25 footballs out (didn't have that kind of budget), rain or shine. |

Second, post in the appropriate place. This message doesn't belong in this thread. If you have a question start a new thread. |

We once scored 25 touchdowns on one play by taking out 25 footballs in the rain

I looked in UGA's storage containers/sheds, which they have all over their practice fields, a couple of weeks ago.
Plus I watch and tried to count footballs, helmet dickies, cones, ets.... I even went into the storage building to see what was inside and stored.
I saw all kinds of pads, rings, cones, sleds, chutes, arm pads, jugs machines, LOS fireman's hose, etc.... and most all were duplicates in each building.
I only saw about a dozen-ish footballs being used by the 2 time defending National Champions in practice at a time.
I might have missed some because I was mainly watching defense. But in the team periods, at the most 4 were in rotation.
Maybe in the ST periods with a Jugs Machine there were 10+ going plus something going on somewhere else.
Again I can only count what I see, and was not there to see everything. I'm sure the Punters and Kickers had bag full of balls to kick... but guessing like in HS those are squibs.
I'm sure UGA has an many footballs as it wants, though.

There also were kids there on recruiting trips. Smart roasted some kid in the middle of practice for being on his phone instead of watching a drill. I'm not sure if it was one of ours or not b/c like I said I wasn't in charge of a position group. |
