R4 System + Gameplanner = 1,2 K.O. PUNCH!

ABSO-FREAKIN-LUTELY

He does say in one of the little previews you can teach IV with it. For those that have done the webinar did you have a headset? I am trying to figureout if I should go pick up a cheap one today, use my cell phone or what.

I was on the webinar yesterday, brought it to my players attention today and they all loved it. It would be a tremendous teaching tool that the kids would love to do. For them to learn from their own position and not just the QB's is a great asset.

The ability to teach / and have them practice the game plan while they are at home is the best.

Now I just have to get my AD on board to help pay for it.

Do the webinar, Coach Slack does an awesome job explaining the program and will answer any questions that you have.

I highly recommend this product, I hope Santa brings me one!! Either that or I will have to give less presents to my family!!

They probably don't want to scare anyone away. They want to entice you so that you do not blow it off thinking "I can't afford this". I saw one of these at the Tulsa Glazier Clinic and I think the price was about $2,500. Does anyone know how many computers you can put this on (how many licenses)?

Vass, The program you are referring to was the original version of Gameplanner 5 years ago.

We have spent the last year and a half revamping that original program. One of the many new features is a the TEST mode that allows a coach to create however many play scenerios he would like. The coach has the ability to ask multiple choice questions, select key players, or test progressions on every play, and export it on his computer or email to his player at home.

Once the test has been taken the program sends a GTR file that has every play scenerio along with the results that you player chose for each scenerio. It also gives the amount of time it took him to answer the question along with what answer or progression he showed. You as a coach get instant feedback immediately after the test has been taken.

Not only can you test the QB but any position on the field. Want to test to see if the WR knows where to line up and what route to run....no problem. He simply logs in and must control where he lines up and must control the route. If he is 1 yard inside or outside the proper route stem he will fail and the test results will reflect that. You can test any position on the field!

Imagine as a coach being able to email a test of 5 -10 or however many plays you are going to run that week to your players, have them take the test at their home computer just like playing Madden, and getting their results emailed back to you immediately after they are done. Would that help you as a coach to see if they are absorbing your gameplan for the week. Would that make you sleep better at night or make you more confident to call that big play? I know it helped us.

As for Dennis Erickson and ASU's dilemma this is not anywhere close to the same program. I can't speak for them and I am curious to how you know that this was a problem that they originally had? Do you know someone on staff that actually used the original program 5 years ago?

No, I just have talked to some college video coordinators about the program and I know he was one of the coaches who was all excited about (or so I was told). He said that coaches had no way to monitor their player's progress so they could actually be learning the wrong things and reinforcing them.

We rectified that issue first with the Zone software program that allows the coach to receive detailed and timed results of every test taken. It is the most advanced network for connecting athletes and coaches with 3D training ever created, and it is all custom. The coach will see exactly what the athlete chose, did, called, etc. and how long it took, etc.

Also, before, there was only one player, the quarterback, who could be tested with no results. Now, we can test every player, at every position, simultaneously, with detailed timed results in the office locally, or from home. The athlete can practice and get immediate feedback about whether he did it right or not, with specific expectations clearly spelled out, and after each question, the athlete and review what he did right and wrong.

Like most software, given time, and the right input, the process is always improving. We have taken this program well beyond anything that has ever been considered possible at the high school level - just because of costs. Like many of the things we have done, we continue to seek how we can stay on the cutting edge of offering the best, most affordable, resources we can to bring competitive advantage to the coach and athlete.

You are hearing coaches on this board say this very thing, even after they have seen and heard the webinar. That should assure you that things are as advertised.

Coaches, there is no attempt to sustain any secrets about anything. We have been on this board since the day it opened, and I haven't tried to "entice" anyone, besides, we really aren't supposed to.

But, if you want to hear it straight, I have been selling my backside off on this board, trying to get every coach who would listen, to buy into what we are doing, but I try to do it as respectfully as I can.

The most difficult part of all that effort, is that for every one that sees the value and benefits, there are dozens of others who aren't as convinced, and they turn to what they know and think we are just like all the others who claim and can't deliver.

I would imagine that the bulk of what has been passed off in the name of the "newest thing" and "expertise" has left most of us wanting to puke, thus making it even more challenging to offer a strong perspective with authority on just about anything without causing questions.

Packages for the Gameplanner begin around 3K, with the opportunity to secure additional licenses, and a full program testing battery for up to 100 athletes with the Zone software in other offerings. Full installation of your playbook, roster, and tutorials assistance is included at different levels as well.

Bottom line, we are busting ours to serve you with every possible sales, selling, promotional, advertising, marketing effort we can to get every coach to realize that we aren't kidding when we say that every program needs what we are offering.

Hope that clears some things up for you and others who might be wondering.

For the record, this product was originally designed to be used at the higher levels with broader goals and was thus not as directionally focused in terms of ease of use and workflow. That has all changed.

One coach has already told me that his pursuit of one company for a product just like this got him a quote of over 100,000 dollars. They told him that to get him off the phone, he said.

We won't do that, just ask the guys who have already called.

I was the coach who received a quote of $100,000 for a similar software that was marketed to DI schools.

We did the webinar with Coach Slack the other day and it blew away our expectations. We are talking about all kinds of possibilities of how to incorporate the software with our game planning and preparation - not to mention the fact that it will be a HUGE recruiting tool to get kids out for football. We hope to show it at the Junior High schools to get kids excited about coming out for football when they get up here.

I would definitely encourage everyone to check it out. I was fully expecting the price to be 2-3X the price it is!

You can get $450 off for attending a webinar. I assume it's pretty expensive with a discount like that. Want to attend a webinar, but can't attend on the times listed.

dsqb Coach I have all your videos and enjoyed them. I pick up the newest ones in AZ at your clinic. By the way my QB relay did well. Broke all the school records and help take us to the playoffs which hadn't been done for sevens years. I will see you again this year.

Are there going to be more webinar's other than the one's listed?
