bdud,
Don't tolerate one more lazy step; if they don't finish every drill hard, there needs to be a consequence. Do it again, do "up-downs," whatever.
Have a finishing point marked for every drill & demand that they finish through that marker.

Anyone willing to share their Offensive/Defensive point system for spring or pre-season scrimmages?

It's already hapening - what is the zone read but option football? Add a pitch & it's - whoa - Triple option - not unlike the veer.
"Wildcat" - go back 50 years to the Single wing. It all comes in cycles...

A few from a defensive pespective:
We count just as dgs describes - so if you play a Split, expect Offenses to attack primarily Strongside - they believe they have 1/2 a man on you.
People get into Twins to: 1. Get you to move WLB & run in vacated area 2. Run strong vs a def that overadjusts or has a corner force on TE side 3. Throw combination patterns (curl/flat, etc.)
If you don't have one more def than the off has blockers at the POA, you could be in trouble - play an 8-man front on perceived "Run Downs.
If you don't have one more in covg than off has potential receivers, the you are playing MAN, not Zone.

A good coach makes his players better. He can get them to maximize their potential. Gets them to play together and as a team. They execute their assignments and hustle. They get after people and hit. They dont make a lot of mistakes, they dont beat themselves. His team never QUITS, they finish everything. I think tvt50 hit the nail on the head. If kids can apply the above a high % of the time to their lives outside football, then a coach has truly done some good.

Do coaches who often talk in terms of "I did this, or "I beat so & so," raise red flags with anyone else? Some make it sound as if other coaches or players had nothing to do with their success.
Seems that football is as "we" as it gets.

Another option vs Spread to keep 6 in the box is to zone (4 or 2) the "tendency" side (Best receiver(s)/wide side) & man the other.

Have done it both ways, & my opinion is that I'd rather train 4 DB's to play deep zones (or Cover 2 - which requires the most technique work) & then move a safety down & play cover 3 or Robber; Starting 'em down & then backing 'em up can get you in trouble vs spread teams, though. Don't want to sit in 1/3's vs spread doubles.

That mix sounds better than the original post which mentioned only 4-4 Cover 3.

Spread teams are licking their chops if your primary coverage is 1/3's - too many seams w/ 4 vertical threats.
