turnover ratio 2-0
Hold them under 14 points
score at least 28 points
hold them under 100 yds of total offense
stuff like that, make sure that they can all be accomplished. These expectations might be a little too high for a losing program though

Sorry, the line "No more than X plays over 1 yards" should be "No more than X plays over 15 yards"

If you are trying to turn around a struggling program I suggest avoiding the statistical "goals" and use personal goals as they are directly under the kid's control. These are our Goals for Victory.
1. Do Your Job (not someone else's - do YOUR job, one play at a time!)
2. Be a Physical Player!
3. Always Give 100%
4. Be a Smart Player! (No mistakes, penalties, missed assignments)
5. Run, Block, and Tackle
Notice that every single goal is totally dependent upon the player. It does not matter how big, strong, or fast he is. They are not affected by the opponent, the officials, the weather or any other factor that can sometimes dictate statistics. We tell our kids that IF we accomplish those 5 goals we will put ourselves in a position to win.

We tell our kids that IF we accomplish those 5 goals we will put ourselves in a position to win. I agree 100% with the good doctor above. When trying to revamp a losing program, you need to give the kids something they can handle. A down program can't "win games"...as evidenced by its record. The kids now how to do that. A down program can't "rush for 'x' yards". They probably have been smushed each week. But..11 individual kids can line up where they are supposed to be. 11 individual kids can play at a graded effort level above 80%. 11 individual kids can worry about their small individual assignments (ie, I won't get reached). 11. individual kids can remember the snap count/key the ball/man and eliminate false start penalties. |
