HOW MUCH IS TOO MUCH?

I don't know. The Head guy is just a guy like you are. If you were the HC and one of your Assistants had questions..you'd be more than happy to answer every one of them right? I'm sure the head coach is busy, but as a coach I bet he loves answering football questions!

We typically have one meeting a month starting in January and run through June. We break down everything, run game, pass game, specials, base d, fronts and stunts, coverages. We cover 1 part per meeting (we try to stay away from personnel, but we always seem to end up back there). I invite all my coaches, freshman and jr. high included to each meeting and encourage them to ask questions. I have more of a problem when they don't ask questions and assume they understand exactly what we are trying to accomplish, then have to be re-taught during the season. I would rather they burn my email and telephone up with questions than not ask as many as they feel like they need to to understand what we are trying to do. Besides, the more times I (and my position coaches) get to explain it the better we understand it and hopefully get better at communicating it so when we get to the kids in August it should be easier to get across to them. Just my two cents.
