The science was explained to me but I am a History guy so it sounded like "blah, blah, blah"!

We had the same issue for years. At all levels. Then we learned something from Oregon were we used to go to team camp every year. They said the players need to go hardest the day before so that their bodies are ready for the game. We used to go full pads on Monday and Tuesday, shells on Wednesday and helmets on Thursday. Now we go helmets on Monday, shells on Tuesday and Wednesday, and full pads on Thursday. That is the day we work on 3rd and short, red zone, goal line, etc. Very physical day. I have never heard of this before.....goes against convention for sure (not that I am against that). How long have you all been doing this? Coach, we have been doing it for three years now. The Oregon guys told us it came from their strength guy. He pleaded with them as he claimed that it was more physiologically sound. Chip, being an outside the box guy, went with it. We end practice on Thursdays with a half line, 1's vs. 1's, into the boundary, take 'em to the ground drill we call Hash Drill.

We have four of them. I use two of them for my TE drills. We use them to practice release moves.

Have those of you that have been AD/HC had it as your primary job (as in full time AD) or as a stipend? I'm guessing blacknight yours is a stipend since you are teaching Social Studies as well but what about the rest? Correct, it is a stipend. $4,999.00 a year.

blackknight but you have a cool profile picture from Canal Street, so you got that going for you! That was the trip of a lifetime! Went to Mardi Gras with my brother-in-law and I will go again if I can get another pass from my wife!

Blacknight, you may have the perfect schedule It worked well, but of course Admin has taken away one of my prep periods for next year because of budget. I will now have my Sports P.E. 1st as before and then teach World History 2nd through 4th with 5th and 6th off now.

I am the AD/Head Football Coach. I also teach Sports P.E. which is the weight lifting class for my football players. That is 1st Period. I have 2nd and 3rd off and do as much of my AD stuff and football prep as I can during those two periods. I teach World History during 4th and 5th Periods. I have 6th off and get ready for practice and prep for the next day in my WH classes.

Because we used to go to Oregon's camp, we learned about this while we were up there a couple of years ago. According to them, there was some theory to it and they bought into it 100%. We adopted this and have found it to be fantastic. We go light on Wednesday in shells, but on Thursday come out in full pads and practice coming out the endzone, redzone and goalline situations.

No, I must baby-sit them!
I space coaches out on the bus to manage them on away games.
Our kids are way immature!
