What's wrong with just saying "Run it again"? BUT THE SCRIPT!!!!! We never scripted team, just had like 30 mins or so and would run our stuff against what the scout team threw at us. Was good for us since we never knew what D would be seen on Fridays. Also would go over a play and run it again if there were mistakes. Fix it on the field. Wasn't right? Run it again! Same with the D, I would hand the scout coach the cards and say give us a lot of run or whatever. Felt it made us better as coaches when you were thinking and adjusting and coaching it all up.

If you're planning on running X number of plays in Y number of minutes then just adjust the time or # of plays so that you've got a couple minutes of buffer. Use that time to correct on the fly and if you dont use that time then you can get a few bonus reps in at the end.
I very firmly believe in correcting on the field. If a kid was doing a math problem wrong I wouldnt have him do it 3 more times really fast and then show him film of him doing it wrong after the fact. I really believe in correcting things as they happen. Obviously you'll miss things here and there that are great to catch on film but most of it is corrected on the field for us. Wing-T guys are familiar with "birddog" reps. They'd help anyone in any offense

We script all group and team periods simply so that all coaches know where the ball is going and can coach their respective players. We feel that scripting also helps us make sure we're practicing what the opponent does most (defensive perspective) and makes us more efficient at practice. There's no wasted time thinking about what to run next; just follow the script. We meet after practice and discuss what we want on the next day's script so that we get enough reps without trying to "cover the ocean with a tarp". Sometimes the script contains play(s) that specifically attack the weakness of the defense. If there's an error, we fix it right on the spot by aligning and walking through the play and correcting any mistake. We ask the player(s) who errored "What did you see and what was your reaction?" Issue is usually poor player eye discipline or incorrect reaction (could be poor technique). Then we'll run the play full speed and move on in the script. The problem we have with scripting is that we are a "very veteran" staff, and some guys have a tough time reading the script and get lost.

As a DC, I decided I did want my 7 on 7 periods and team segments scripted, but only by formation. I would tell the offense to run whatever play they wanted but out of a certain formation. We did not play any opponents that were so formation-based that we blitzed the formation but we also had adjustments to formations. Of course, keeping my HC/OC on the script was a challenge...
I will also admit that as a new father (two-month-old and 2-year-old foster sons home on the weekends) and teaching 100 low-level readers throughout the school day (double what I had in previous years) sometimes that script got done, sometimes it didn't.
