my head college coach(who was the oc) coached the team from the press box. he was able to see what was going on. the qb coach was on the headset with him and did the talking or gave the head set to the kid.

Im up in the box wired to the DC on the sideline. I made up a spread sheet so that i can quickly chart d&d, hash ,what defense we called,their formation and play as well as if there was motion and to what side,where the play went(wide,short ,right,left,weak strong)the result of the play and how many timeouts they have. The only writing I have to do is our call and their formation and play. The rest is tick marks. That way I can chart after each play and still watch for personnel changes between plays. Then we take that info at halftime and take what we can from it.

Guys guys guys...
There is one thing you guys seem to overlook...body language.
Review your old game tapes and ask yourself a few questions...
Did you notice that offensive linemen lean back while on the line of scrimmage... or lean forward? If they lean back, it's usually passing (but watch out for a draw play). If they lean forward, it's usually running (but watch out for screen play).
Did you notice that how a quarterback walk to the line of scrimmage and scan the whole field at the same time? If he does not scan a defensive coverage, it would be a running play. If he scans, then it may be a passing play.
Did you watch the body language of the each player just before the kickoff (or any play). Last year, I noticed several opposing players while on the field sort of talked to each other about certain strategy before the opening kickoff. Based on the way they moved or pointed using their arms or fingers in a certain direction of the field, I warned the special team coach that there would be an offside kick. And I was right.
Body language should not be overlooked no matter what...
Coach Jimmer

Two Greatest Things I have ever heard over the phones:
1. Up 35-7 in State Championship game, the game was at a very first rate stadium. I hear something all garbled and sounds like something smacking, then "Man, these sandwiches are great!"
2. About 4 years ago. 4th and 1 right hash, OC goes for it Playaction-sack-T/Over.
"coach im sorry bad call on my part"
"no coach, dont beat your self up, its my fault. My fault for listening to your stupid ass."

Body language should not be overlooked no matter what... Coach Jimmer Can you come spot for us? I agree. YOu have to watch for little things from the sidelines and in the box. I have seen games won b/c the spotter alerted the HC that the OL was flip flopping only on a particular play. |
