Hi guys
I am starting my 7th year of coaching HS and played center at the University of Kentucky (2 year starter). I have run the veer in HS and Pro I/West Coast modified in college. I have coached both sides of the line but I mainly coach the OL. I coached in KY for 4 years, now I live So. Cal coaching at a HS in the Inland Empire.
Coaching: Offense 1st year: Power I 2nd : Pro I 3rd: Spread 4th: Spread and so on
Defense: 4-3; 4-4; 3-3
I used to be on this site a few years ago, then when I moved out here I lost touch but I am glad I found it again and look forward to learning more from everybody.

Hi I am a Grid kids coach at a small town in Washington State. We had our first season this last year it was a ton of fun but we got our butts handed to us. I was the offensive coordinator/and helped as the second HC to fill in for the HC who had to work. Most of our teams ran the double wing and ran it poorly I ran a offset I formation and scored more points and more yardage than the other teams in our program ...but we still lost every game this year.
So I am always willing to learn everything I dont know which is everything. All my coaching staff supported me and all my kids loved playing for me so I guess I couldnt ask for more. I am looking to develop a system I am comfortable with and can duplicate and be successful any help would be appreciated.

High School in Texas, 4 year starter at safety in college D2 school Currently a 4A Secondary Coach in Texas Hope to move up quickly to coordinator and eventually to college. 4-2-5, and 4-3 defenses is what I have been a part of so far. I consider myself to always try and learn more about the game. Anyone know how you can get some cutups from some offenses and/or defenses in college? I dont like teaching much, and just like being around the game, so I am hoping to get out of the classroom asap! haha coaching IS teaching

I am a head coach in Idaho. I have been coaching for over 25 years now. Played high school and college in southern California and then coached at a couple of big schools in the 80's and 90's. I spent 12 years as an assistant at a school that went from 0-9 as a new school in '94 to winning a couple and losing a couple of state championships and another couple of semi-final loses. I am more of an offensive guy and looking to improve my defensive knowledge. I played Tailback in an I in HS and split back / I in college and Safety in primarily 50 defense schemes. Huge rebuilding challenge at the present school and look forward to sharing and learning. Running Spread-Option with decent results for first year kids. Anyone with defensive ideas for undersized and mediocre speed? I'm all ears. We tried a 35 as a base with some front games and blitzes. At this point, very young, not a lot of size/strength or speed. Anyone want to send a couple of studs??? LOL

Currently: retired
1A assistant 2A O C 4A head coach
College: Defensive Back
Big advocate of I formation and defensive 5 man front. BUT, never have your scheme set before you evaluate your talent!!!!!
Personal Rules: Fundamentals are the RULE! Never judge an athlete before he turns 16. Pee Wee football is for dads who want to relive their football years. Always stay late and help an athlete with homework if needed. Never become friends with parents. One game at a time. Always choose the athlete with integrity over the one who "looks like" he has it all. You will win in the end. When the school board starts telling you how to coach and who to play, RESIGN and run!!!
Finally, retirement is OK, but it doesn't replace the smell of natural grass in the fall, the sound of iron clanking in the weight room and last but not least, the senior at the last game who says "thank you".

I want to take a chance to introduce myself and become a contributor to this board. My name is Mark Jackson and I am an Assistant Coach in Kansas City and a former Head Coach, currently looking for an opportunity to be a Head Coach again. I have a couple leads and options. I have a Double Wing and Spread background. I have authored the Manual for Running the Spread Offense, which you can find on this site. I also have a couple of articles posted on Double Wing Online. I have 4-3, 4-2-5, 3-3-5, and 46 Bear experience as well. I consider myself a student of the game and have 14 years experience. I owe a lot because I have borrowed a lot. I started my payback by starting a blog and publishing documents through google for people to use. Please see the following and feel free to use anything that you find of value: Blog coachmaj.blogspot.comShared Docs: Center Practice Schedule docs.google.com/Doc?id=dczm3kkz_393h9t5cgg2Special Team Script docs.google.com/Doc?id=dczm3kkz_400frj3kvhdWeight Room Checklist docs.google.com/Doc?id=dczm3kkz_401f23xhqc8Grandview Bulldog Running Back Manual docs.google.com/Doc?id=dczm3kkz_402ftt9qsffI will post much more later.

Hey ,I'm Ben Smith and I live in the Memphis,TN area. I am not a coach but a lifelong football fan who appreciates the strategy behind the game. I work as a xray and MRI tech,with experience in sports medicine. I have worked with the University of Central Florida football program, the Orlando Predators of the Arena Football League, and Florida Citrus Sports covering the Capital One and Tangerine Bowl games. My primary areas I study are the Byu/Norm Chow offense, Run and Shoot, Flexbone, Miami 43, and Zone blitz/LeBeau 34 defense. I don't have that much to trade ,but am willing to pay for the costs of obtaining different videos ,books ,and etc. I do have an original copy of the Lavell Edwards/Norm Chow "Winning Football with the Passing Game" that I am in the process of copying and hope to convert as a pdf file. (stay tuned) I look forward to communicating with all on the board. This is BY FAR the Best source for all things related to the game.

That is a lot of stuff to look into. Good luck and you will find many items to help you out, but just remember knowing your X and O's is just as important as knowing your Jim's and Joe's and what they can do with in any scheme. Coaching is a lot more than just knowing about who does what but who can do what. That is coaching. If you are that interested I would suggest to coach a youth program or Frosh or JR high team to learn more.

HI, I am from texas. I coach QB's and coordinate the passing game for my high school. I have coached from 2A ball to 5a ball. I am currently at a 5A in Texas. I accidentally stumbled onto this site and am crazy about it. I have coached both sides of the ball before, but i feel really comfortable on offense.

Born in Fort Collins, CO but currently live in Singapore (they play football here as well)
I'm a 17 year old QB at my school. Not a coach (but a real student of the game) although I would love to look into that when I move back to the states.
We run our offense through the I, the gun and the wishbone.
Looking forward to improving as well as gaining some valuable insight from this forum!

Hi guys,
I am an offensive coach at Owosso High School in Michigan. I have been coaching for 6 seasons now...ever since I graduated high school. Thus, I am still a pretty young coach. Owosso is a Class A school which is the largest class in Michigan. We have a little over 1100 kids. About 30 years ago, we had over 2000 kids in our high school and it has gradually declined since a lot of our local factories have closed and jobs have been lost.
I have coached the split-back veer (2 seasons when I first started), double wing (3 seasons) and now the shotgun spread (this was first season). I obviously have a great passion for football and coaching. I work as hard as I possibly can to improve my abilities. I am not x's and o's expert per say, but I am a great motivator and organizer. I am most familiar with the double wing system and once I get my own HC job, it will be the system that I run. However, I enjoy coaching the spread right now because I have learned some new things already that I can apply to the doublewing and I also learned that the spread is not the "savior" of high school football.
The version of doublewing that I have learned and worked with is a combination of Murphy and Calande. I worked under Jason Mensing for 3 years and he is probably the hardest working coach I have been around. If anyone is every looking to learn more about the system, he is the man to ask. He coaches at Tecumseh High School. This was his first year at Tecumseh and he took them to the playoffs for the first time in 7 years or so and after they won 1 game in 2 years the previous 2 seasons.
Things I am looking to learn more about with the spread is the passing game. I want to know how to attack certain defenses and how to counter their movies SPECIFICALLY. I am a very detail-oriented person and that is why I love the DW. If they do a certain thing, I can immediately come up with a counter to that and still be successful.

Hi guys my name is mike
im am not a coach at all, but ever since i could remember i was always more focused on the X's and O's aspect of football so this website is perfect for me,, i collect plybooks write my own and like i said i like talking more about the play itself then the person who ran it..
I also back in 10th grade started this scheme that i take full credit for creating, i am the only person who i know has thought of this... there might of been other people who might of thought the base formation up but after that stopped fooling around with it, but i have taken it to the next level, i call it the punch offense, (hence my name) i seriously think that football would never be the same if i got it out in public, i hope one day to be an offensive coordinator running my offense, i hope soon that i cant meet with a very well respected coach and he ca give e his opinion on it , and then who knows what will happen after that.

i seriously think that football would never be the same if i got it out in public Don't be so quick to assume anything of the sort. There are thousands of coaches- past coaches, too- who have spent their entire lives on football and haven't created one scheme that is groundbreaking and really pinned to their name. While possible, I find it highly unlikely a 10th grader thought up, oh, say, the next West Coast offense. I should know- I'm a 10th grader myself. This site's your best chance of getting an opinion, I'd wager. So let's see this scheme of your's.

I'm Mustang, long time reader. This is the best website I've encountered yet for coaches. Been coaching 8 years on both sides of the ball, currently 5A assistant. Have run 50, 4-3, 4-2-5, and 3-4 on defense and everything on offense (spread, I, flexbone, double wing, wing T), and have coached every position at one time or another. Love coaching DT's on defense and WR's on offense. Played college ball and Hardin-Simmons, the winningest college in Texas. Go Cowboys.

Forgot to add:
PeeWee Football
Double Wing offense. Also use some Power I once we are forced to run inside the tackles due to mercy rules.
3-5-3 Animal Defense
High School
Wing T offense and Double Wing spread. I don't really deal with it since I assist on D
Defense is a 4-4 stack.
