The reason i ask is when researching the teams that run Franklin's system I can't find any up north. I would generally concur with this, I am not aware of any HS's in PA that are TF clients.

If you go to TF website you can see who runs the system...I know there are 2 in CT that are running the system.

We played twice in slop this year and once in the rain. One of the slop was a sprinkler issue. Still not sure about that. I think the mud helped us in three ways. One it is tough to pass rush in the mud. Two we knew where we were going on our routes and the other team didn't. Three we were able to run the ball better because our opponents tried to rush us in the mud and struggled changing direction.
In the rain is just practice in my opinion. If your kids practice in it they can preform in it. Bring towels, check in multiple balls for the game, by some balls made to stand up to the rain I know rawlings has one. If you want to throw in the rain you can the only thing that is really that difficult to throw the ball in is a super strong wind. Even then we have used short throws, runs, and shovel.

Coming from SW Kansas, (The national weather service says that Dodge City is the windiest city in the U.S.) I can say that a strong wind will do more to disrupt a teams passing game than rain and mud, although they often come together. 40-50 mph winds are fairly common here with or without rain.

IMO, you have already sown a seed of doubt. I have found coaches who have doubts before they run a passing offense will not be successful .
