Focus on solutions and not problems.
As a HC, you are RESPONSIBLE for problems you did not create.
You can delegate authority but not responsibility

More is not better. Doesn't matter how talented the team is or how smart you are as a coach, if they're burned out before September, you're f***ed. Make sure they're looking forward to football. If they're disappointed when summer practice is over, you're on the right track. I’ve felt a loss in the playoffs several times just from the energy. Kids were done |

"Whatever everyone else is running on offense, run something different." In 1970 playing in a CA JC while most schools were running the football our HC had us throwing the ball all over the park. Played in 2 consecutive state title games winning one, highly rated in total pass offense in the state AND the country for JC football, QB was maybe 5'10 but accurate as hell, his primary receiver ended up at Oregon, one of our OT's ended up as a starter at UCLA, and our TE ended up playing for the Redskins.
That advice is what convinced me to run the Double Wing while most others were spreading it out and throwing the ball around. Our opponents couldn't figure us out, nor how to stop us primarily because they hadn't seen much of it, nor could simulate what we were doing as well as we did it during their practices. Same theory why some schools run option type offenses and are successful doing it.
