most of those guys, my guess is, you have 2-3 seasons to get it figured out. if not, your looking for a new job. but, in 2-3 seasons at 100k, you just made more than i did in 5-6 seasons. im sure the pressure is intense, but even at the school I was just the HC at(won 6 games in 3 years) there was pressure there too. changing the culture, trying to turn the under 6ft squad into something better, getting kids into school, etc, etc, sure would like a chance to see what it was like to be compensated for the time spent doing the job.

man, I have the almost same scenerio...as 1 above me.
coached with a HC that when he was the DC, we thought he was awesome. When he got to HC, he turned into the biggest decuehebag ever. anyways i was working with punter and punt returner. mind you we have a kid that punts a knuckle ball. 100% zero spin, damdest thing I have ever seen. was ridicoulus to catch. our PR kid was decent. great hands, just not a burner kid. he would catch anthing and make a move then get tackled. always. so, punt, catch, hands me ball to throw back repeat several several times last 1 of the 10 min period, I kick it back......right into the HC back of his head, the absolute best punt of my entire life. felt like 12 second hang time and 60 yds of length. probably like 2 seconds and 30 yds. he was such a d-bag to everyone all year, even the kids, not a person said "heads up". he looked around and said for like 15 min who did it, who did it. went right up to him when it happend, was like, coach you ok? lol with a great smirk on my face....he knew it was me. lmao...

www.theplayerstribune.com/pj-fleck-western-michigan-keep-rowing/this type of crap is what disgusts me the most I mean the guy has had success, no arguing that..he's about to be a mult-millionare and I'm pulling down a smooth 55k so what the hell do I know? but do you think that Saban, Rockne, Switzer, Bear, Hayes, Wilkinson, etc ever WROTE an article for the local paper about how THEY gave a halftime speech that turned the season around? I tried to count the amount of times this guy referenced himself in this article about his team but got a headache and quit I don't know that it's just in football either, the entire archetype of manhood has changed I think, we have gone from appreciating the strong silent type and the virtue of humility to the shameless self promoter and his "brand". You think Lincoln could get elected president today? A man of few words who wouldn't look good on TV?..forget about it, the idiocracy would laugh him off the stage. My dad used to always say that empty can rattles the loudest, I liked that, but I guess the world has moved on from that idea...so now being a successful football coach in major college football has a lot to with how many tweets get liked, videos of you doing "coachey" things posted everywhere...and writing articles about what an unbelievable motivator you are. not sure how this ties in with what you guys are talking about...sorry..but damn I wish that Saban would use his platform to come out publicly one day and tell all these guys to just shut the f*ck up and coach.......but I don't imagine that would be his style. Worst article I've ever read. I played and coached in TONS of games and can't tell you 1 speech, I'm sure I could recall adjustments but speeches and tag lines never did nor do it for me. most of those speeches are straight from the heart, wether its fire up the troops, break some stuff, calm their nerves, fight like there is no tomorrow or whatever, who writes a pregame speech? i may know what premise i am gonna talk about, but its gut stuff. halftime is a never ever know what that may be... PJ sounds kinda fake to me, and I like his energy etc... but that read sounds like its made up to make him sound good. idk...

Any coach who listens to the fans is the same as a QB who sees the pass rush...you may get lucky and make a few plays here and there but really...it's already over.
That's not the problem.
Problem is the weak-kneed, chicken-hearted ADMINISTRATORS who listen to the parents and-or "fans" and fire coaches who are good guys doing good jobs sometimes in difficult situations.
A-MEN to this!

Fans want to win but they also want a show. Unless they have both, they aren't happy. Administrators want happy fans and their money. Football is entertainment to everyone who is not actively participating on gameday. That's just how it is. Fans also get tired of the same show year after year. Even if you're winning, if it looks the same 4 or 5 years in a row, they'll find reasons to gripe about why you're not winning even bigger. Fans aren't ever going to be happy. It doesn't matter. A team could go 15-0 and win the state title by 40 and fans would still b!tch. I didn't make up those numbers...that happened at a state finals game where a team was up by 40 in the 4th...on their way to win their 6th title in 8 years and you'd have thought they were in the 4th quarter of game 10 in a 0-10 season. I and one of my friends had to say something to them and it turned into a bit of a scene. At the LSU v Alabama game in 2011 that I referenced in my earlier post, to hear the fans talk Saban is worst hire in the history of football. He couldn't cut it at Miami, yada yada yada... Any coach who listens to the fans is the same as a QB who sees the pass rush...you may get lucky and make a few plays here and there but really...it's already over. this!!

If you win they don't care what you run. Same chit is happening in basketball. If you win, you can run what you run. If you lose, "why are you not shooting 3's every possession like Golden State?" Winning cures everything. yes it does, but no it doesnt. agree but I dont. I know here if someone tried to put some wing T in, parents and those admin that are monday night football gurus but never ever coached a kid a day in their life, would ask why your running that 1950s offense? you should run spread...... school A runs spread and scores points, why arent we? well dipchit, we run the wing t because we are the under 6ft school with 185lb linemen and our qb cant run or throw, but dang he is smart and can reverse pivot with the best of em! lol. what happend to the days of football coaches go to a school, gets head job and stays for next 25 yrs, is left alone, goes to basketball games in the winter and kids surround him, watches spring baseball practices and games and parents call him coach,,,,admin treats him with respect..... i want tha job..... want in 1 hand and chit in other and see which one fills up, right. lol

The biggest travesty about IMG imo is that they advertise themselves as a developmental academy. But if that was the case then they wouldnt be taking kids as transfers. If thats your thing then take them as 6th graders and DEVELOP them into blue-chippers, rather than taking a bunch of transfers that already have big time offers, taking them away from their homes for their senior year, and putting them on a team with a 10 game schedule that can't even play in a state championship. i completly disagree here. why is it a travesty? it is what it is, a school that recruits openly. takes in the best of the best, puts them in a fantastic facility, football wise-are coached and educated at a college type atmosphere level. workout, school, film, practice, school, workout, lights out. just like if they were in college. they cant play in state title games because of the open recruiting, but wait for the new fla rule on open enrollment. i bet at some point they do play in fhsaa. monteverde someone mentioned is a bball powerhouse in the country. football shutdown last year. it was a joke. tried to pull the same crap they do for bball, it didnt work.

zeros on the clock, why did he throw the ball away? why not just fall down? or take a knee or run out the back of the endzone or take the sack. if you dont have to throw it, dont!!!! what if it was tipped and went for 6 the other way.
unfortunate for them.

These are mine: 1) Away game, freezing cold, I'm a young assistant coach in the box. We are actually IN a pressbox, with wall partitioned off from the announcer. We were REALLY bad, and we were essentially stealing a game from a much better team at their homecoming. Refs start making some CRAZY calls and non-calls in their favor, and I start to lose it. The Pressbox window was open, and I (oblivous to that) start losing my chit...MFing everyone quietly until I lose if and let out a long drawn-out "FAAAAAAAAAAACCCCCCCKKKKKKKKK" that the entire stadium heard. AS I'm yelling this, our film guy sprint to shut the window, and as he slams it down the glass shatters. What a mess. Very embarrassed. 2) Getting a$$ kicked at halftime, team is very flat. I was a young assistant (I see a trend here...) and was getting more and more pi$$ed as I see the kids not responding to the HC pleading for them to wake up and play. I lose it (par for the course) started punching and kicking lockers, caving them in and finally kicked a gatorade bottle. It launched across the room and hit the assistant head coach (my buddy) in the chest, broke the lid off, and gatorade exploded all over him. It was like a perfect soccer corner kick, curved and everything. The kids thought we were going to fight each other, but he just spit the gatorade out and screamed out in excitement. The kids were scared to death and we got mauled the 2nd half. We still laugh about this one, but I was embarrassed. literally lol right now. those are 2 good ones!!

good lord where to start.
10+ years ago we were beating a team and it was a monumental upset. like no way, no how POS school should be school with 2 NFL players on it. we did, they freaked out as we are in victory. kid dives over the line and helmet to helmet the qb, not once, but 2 times. our sideline flips out and rushes the field, as do theirs. i witnessed coaches(not mine thank god) holding kids as other players was punching them. it was completely a chit show, cops had to come to field, etc....they had 13 ejected, we had 8. thank god season was over.
2 seasons ago after the season was real bad(3-7 the season before and returned alot, turned to 1-9). in last game of the season, we are driving to win the game. 4th down not converted and the WR and QB yelling and screaming up the sidelines, MF this, FU that, you suck, this team sucks, stadium was quiet, everything was heard. it was by far the most embarassed I have ever been. drunk dads in the stands yelling at the coaches and the kids, a total and complete disorganized mess.... thank god I was fired, hahahahaha...
got a couple more, will save them.

I've met two. One was good, one was bad. It really just depends, like anyone else. Unfortunately, I've seen former NFL players or elite college players get hired based on playing career, usually by ADs who don't know football all too well, because in other sports (cross country, track, etc) using elite next-level players is the thing to do. Be open minded about the situation, just like any other coach. that seems to be the growing trend. high profile names and hires in this area. you hire a guy with a NAME and think he will bring immediate super bowl type success to the program. when he falls flat on his face, because in the N, MFING, F L, they dont do laundry or mow grass, paint fields, clean locker rooms, sticker the helmets, etc. etc.... the biggest mistake a program on hard times can do is hire a name to run the show, with ZERO coaching experience at the high school level. just because you can run a 4.5 and outjump the DB, does not mean you can design an offense that will translate for the 165lb sloppy guard and the noodle arm qb. in last 4 years I have seen former NFL/NCAA dudes get fired for 1.cussing the kids out at halftime, at a really good program that if he just cared a bit they would win state championships 2. blaming admin for being racist and they are against him and the program(nah dude you played 5 qbs in 1 game because each of them threw INT in your ignorant NFL style passing attack offense.) 3. asking for a massage from student athletic trainer, because your weekly massuse(SIC) was out of town. STUDENT ATHLETIC TRAINER!! and then pay her friend 100 bucks and buy them food to eat and take them home. 4. resigned in lieu of firing(isnt that always what it really is) because he got caught driving kids from 1 side of town to the other from 1 school district to his school. oh and throw in the kids got busted at summer camp smoking lefty cigs in the dorms, WITH COACHES. 5. another resignation-former nfl injuries dampen my ability to coach, so im out, until the next good job opens and its the grace of god im healthy. but all the blue collar, try to do it right, grind from volunteer 9th grade coaches to varsity coordinator in the span of 15 years get often overlooked because, they are blue collar, joe not a pro.... NFL dude doesnt need our weak salary or the joke of a supplement(in some places) to live. me as HSFB coach does....this is my lively hood. you played in the league. go roam those sidelines or sign up for sideline reporter. leave HSFB to the guys who truly love the game and kids.... rant over.

I love how Wrestling can help you as a football player, but never am a big fan of kids having to cut a lot of weight. It pains me even more when I hear skills kids talking about cutting 20 pounds. i agree there. totally. i would have never told a skill kid to drop 20lbs, although I walked out of football at 175 one year and cut to 152 in less than a month, why because coach told me too. times are different, when I was HC in wrestling and OC FB, i had several football kids on the mat with me. not 1 time did I tell them to cut. it was on their own and i made sure they did it right. weight lifting was a big part of our training as it should be with every wrestling program. drop the baby fat and put on some muscle in its place isnt a bad thing. cutting weight and not replacing it properly is the problem.

if an OL or DL kid is losing 20-40lbs, its not always a bad thing. it was bad weight anyways. as a former head wrestling coach, i hated to see kids want to cut to face a different level of kid, but never told them not too. it will come back and they will be a better athlete because of the 3 months+ on the mat. i promise that. dont worry. the strength they lost in the weight room(if wrestling coach is a good one, he supplments conditioning exercises at least 2 a week in the weight room) if its any at all, maybe 5-10 lbs of bar strength, they will gain actual physical strength. you know the kind you need to move a human. that "grown man" strength we have after we quit the gym. they get that on the mat.

here's how I assume it went down big win...everybody pumped, kids getting rowdy in the locker room...some kid goes and grabs a bottle of syrup from the pancake breakfast that moms did that morning and some funny fat lineman kid goes Farley with it and decides to pour it on his belly so the other kids find this to be the height of humor and start taking pictures of themselves looking like they are licking the syrup..everybody laughing ..bout this time coach comes in to run the little bastardos out of the field house so him and the staff can go celebrate in the adult way..he finds billy bob slathered in syrup and kids start saying "coach take the picture like we did...take the picture like we did!!" it's a big win and he's happy so coach says what the heck i'll do a little something and they'll get a kick out of it any other scenario than that is hard to defend, but I bet it was something like that, not necessarily smart, but not Sandusky status either...but then the 2nd string QB (it's always the 2nd string QB) shows his picture to his 2nd string daddy Todd who sees his opportunity to get coach fired and piss off first string daddy Mark who thinks he's so great with his cooler car and still hot wife so he decides to get his wife the 2nd string mommy to make a big fuss about it and here we are LMFAO!!!!!!!

camera phones in the locker room..... too many pregame locker room rants, involving very creative ways to pump the guys up, breaking things, cursing, spitting and yelling, head butting walls (or players helmets for that matter), kicking the bottles of water, snapping a clipboard(cut my hand so bad I needed stitches, blood everywhere, kids thought it was awesome I didnt care-we won it was worth it), the list goes on and on. several caught on camera phone and the kids replayed some of it, I have asked no phones out during pregame or halftime....
licking syrup kinda takes the (pan)cake...not seen that one b4.
btw, the parents are bat chit crazy. holy hell

It honestly drives me crazy because it's one of the consistent cliches of our profession. Hate encountering the football coach who can't spell philosophy but can diagram Okie Thunder Lion vs I Backs no problem. I have half a mind to quit teaching and just copy edit football books for a living because as a profession we are just this side of illiterate. Alvin Mack, the program!!!!!! kill everyone football books have typeos in thim becuz football coaches have fat fingers and cant type or they are hunt n peckers. lmao!!

I just knew the "d-bag ref" comment would get someone by the short n fuzzies. lmao!!!! I used to be the sideline guy that would sit and yell and yell and yell at all the stripes about everything. late hit, holding, PI, blah blah blah blah... figured out(with age and time at a horrrrrrriiiiibbbblllllleeee program, with an ancient crew almost weekly) its a total waste of time. 1-they are not listening, at least not to all the ignorant comments 2-they are listening to the ignorant comments only 3-sideline warnings/flags accure quickly 4-they will have your game again in a few weeks and will be the white hat 5-they will throw a PI flag either off or def that may cost you a TD, either way---judgement call---lol 6-oh,,,another sideline flag, sorry coach youve been ejected. 7-they never ever forget the "d-bag" coach that yells constantly/says he can score a 70 on the offical rules test too(one of my coaches actually said that, I freaking flipped on him) 8 and finally-its so much easier to kill em with kindness and coach your kids instead of yelling at the refs, who in turn will give you just a bit of respect and it may come back on you later in the year, that "hey, that guys team is bad, but man hes a good dude and coaches his butt off and never, ever gives us any grief".

flatten it out, best you can. let the grass grow all week, paint EVERYTHING WITH EXTRA THICK. like maybe double paint it. do your 20s, 50s with double colors, outline numbers double make sure your logo middle of field is big and bright! put it in the endzones too, maybe flip the colors (blue/orange to orange/blue). more color on field, the less likely anyone notices the dirt spots. you can always get green paint to fill those spots in. home depot has it, in aerosol.
more color the better.

i was told years and years ago in college, by an old professor who coached just about every sport possible. when you get up and go to "work" it is just that, work. If you get up and go to "school" it is a passion and is enjoyable, it isnt work. up until this last coaching spot I had(got fired day before spring break by an AD 2 months on the job, I wasnt bowing down to him and his lousy coaching advice/career and a principal in his 1st yr) I went to school daily, stressed when it was necessary, busted my tail to make perception not reality, clean up the joint. now, i go to work. daily. looking for that next piece of pie and hoping its the 1 that lasts 25 years. thats the dream job, do what my high school coach did. took over at my school in 1972, retired 1 yr before they consolidated the 2 high schools to 1 in 2013. 31 years in 1 spot, wins, losses, boys to men, men to fathers, those men he coached and their kids playing for him. to me thats the end all be all. I think you are misinterpreting the emotion here. I don't equate "grind" to "work" anymore than I equated "lifting weights" to "work" as a player. I see the grind as a means to a better end. If that end is not achieved, than damnit I'm going to do even more to achieve it. That's the problem. It's never being satisfied. Or more, it's about being downright consumed by failure. And when you grind and grind and grind even harder and finally start reaping the fruits of your labor how do you scale back? You've put in all this work and grind to achieve your success that you'll be damned to let it get back to the way it was before. And you could say "it's just HS football," but it would be the same if I was a pianist, or whatever I chose to have a passion for, felt I was good at, and couldn't stand the idea of being a failure at. nope, i totally see the difference. not to continue arguing a point. but its not a job to me, its a passion(the emotion thing you spoke of). I grind daily. and right now I WORK at a school to pay the bills. but I grind and am passionate at another school, on the field with some boys who want to be coached. I hear you tho. never, ever, be satisfied.

I think a lot has to do with how you respond, or choose not to respond, to "critics." There are more out there than ever before but do they really know what they are talking about? Do you have to respond to them? Do they have a legitimate, honest concern for your team? Meyer, Saban, Belichick, Arians, all have critics and they are the best at what they do. Last week at a local youth football game a parent was complaining to a coaches wife about playing time for her son. While she was complaining the son was in for three straight series of play and she did not even notice. Worth getting worked up for? agree and disagree. you just named 3 or 4 of the best in the biz. its not how you respond, its how does the boss respond. if momma A goes to principal and complains about billys PT. then friday night billy plays, gets 8 balls thrown his way, catches 1, throws a fit on the sideline on why he isnt playing more, after his latest drop you take him out, starts dropping F bombs, band parent writes a note to principal about her daughter hearing such language and what is the coach teaching the boys. thats the principal responding, not me as billys coach. the critics are normally daddy ball parents who are trying to tell coach that he should run a 4-3 defense, but doesnt understand why your running a 3-3. i told that dad, lol, we have 5 DL kids total. 2 of them are god awful, 2 others are ballers, the nose shouldnt be playing at all, but is 350lbs and can fall down and clog both gaps. repsond to that??? well dad says coach, all u need is 4 guys to play a 4-3. lmfao..... i tell parents at my parent meeting yearly, the door is always open, every saturday if you want to watch tape with me, come on. but be prepared to get a reality check.

wrong again my friend. both of those jobs I lost as HC, lost my teaching job too. They are not tied together, but they are. here, 1 may be supplemental coaching per-say, but when you get hired to the big dog chair, that teaching job goes with it. besides that, NOBODY is getting rich off a coaches supplement. unless your in South carolina, some georgia and texas. where its not just HS football. not for 100k. you better win or your out! a very well known fla coach went to valdosta ga for 3 seasons. made 100k plus, lived in a house for free, drove a local dealerships truck for free, etc, etc, went to finals in big boy class, lost. made semis and lost the next year, made semis next year and,,,,,was fired.... its not just high school football, maybe in some places. I'd wager a decent sum to say there are only a couple handful of areas in the entire United States where it's more than just HS football. You are the exception to the rule, not the rule itself. maybe so, but who wants to live in $hit weather! i bet in the middle of idaho football isnt life, admin dont care much, go coach kids, create some great relationships with admin, dont steal money, dont have sex with the prom queen, dont look at porn on a school device, coach 3 sports and enjoy the fun times of it not being that big of a deal... wait??? what??? it does mean something in small town idaho??? huh??? www.kmvt.com/content/sports/Wendell-fires-high-school-football-coaching-staff-392825681.html

Most places. ok so maybe its just high school football everywhere, except for where it means more than anything else in the state. lol fla, tex, calif(i think) ga and sc. fla doesnt pay squat, neither does cali not sure why its such a big deal there, other than the best athletes in the US are in fla and cali is so dang big they have more people than anyone else. texas has the best of everything with all the oil, they will get best facilities, pay the coaches more than anyone and its a big deal. everything is bigger in texas. ga and sc is what I dont get?? football is king in the south, but how and why do they pay their guys so well and do not have near the prospects as those other states? i know alot of coaches transition to living in those states, make some dough and live it up. SC has awesome weather and a great beach life. some great, real, southern folk in those states too.
