Which is worse - having head set on during 7-on-7 with somebody on top, or nobody up there? Hahahahahahahahahahaha That is funny right there.

No actually. Sorry. Please film practice. You just need a chair and a cell phone and an extra kid or coach. It will change your team. Just film 10 offensive and 10 defensive plays. You will be amazed at how much better you get when you start correcting every detail. The cool part is after a few weeks, the kids start to correct themselves. JUST DO IT!!!!!! What do you find to be the most common mistakes being corrected? Offense - first steps!!! Fakes. Pad position. Defense - first steps. Hands. Eyes. Pad position. Leverage. We coach every single detail.

Y'all are wrong. Just post it on Hudl with notes. How do you correct your kids? How do you show them the right (and wrong) ways to do things? Do i detect any sarcasm there? Lol No actually. Sorry.

im going to say this, and everyone here will disagree with me, but i will die on this hill. kids have NO capability to watch or consume film, and they have even less capability to correct based on film. film is for coaches, not for kids. absolute waste of time and energy. Yup pretty much. You might have a special group of players from some years, or at least 1 or 2 every year that can benefit from it and actually care, otherwise, I agree Y'all are wrong. Just post it on Hudl with notes. How do you correct your kids? How do you show them the right (and wrong) ways to do things?

Yeah I know, its insane! But it is SOP around these parts. Now mind you, we have a three week mandatory dead period where nothing goes on. But outside of that pretty much everyone of the top schools around here is putting in 4-5 weeks of 20 hour weeks in the summer. I think its overkill, but its what is done. This is why many kids are finding things to do other than football And let me add this, I hope all my opponents go 5 days a week, 4 hours a day. Every single one of them. I don't think that is over kill. I think that is kill. You know why I go Tue, Wed, Thu 9am-12noon? Because I think that is about the right amount. If anything, I would go LESS, not more. Our other sports go with us for about 2 hours on Tue and Thu and one hour on Wed. That is when we are doing strength and speed training. We get about one hour of "football" in the other hour each day.

Also, I don't like scripting if I'm calling offense. It helps me to make calls in practice the way I would in the game. Got to admit I am confused. Do you spot the ball and it is 1st and 10 and the scout team is trying to stop you and go from there until you score?

On a similar note I don't understand how people practice, especially defense, without a script. the way ive always approached it is that your opponents tendencies ARE your script. as a Defensive coach, i shouldnt need a sheet to tell me that on 3rd and 1 the opponent will most likely run....X. Thats what film and scouting is for. THIS

How do you stop the Cam Newton play? Dash/Inverted Veer/Power Read. Whatever you call it. Block power. QB is the dive portion while the RB/jet guy is going outside. Everyone blocked but read DE. OK, you got me to bite. My first question- Who is the better player/bigger threat between the QB or the outside guy? I generally prioritize who has the bigger chance of {censored} us before I worry about adjustments. Let's say RB.

Everyone blocked but read DE. you stop it the same way you stop every play in HS football. Have a stronger weight room program ;-) Disagree here. I am genuinely curious how box teams stop power read. Just say 10p. Doesn't matter. Besides, unless you just have genetic freaks, your guys will not be stronger or faster than us. We are strong.

How would you set up your option run fits if you boxed? There's been discussion had on here in the last few months concerning option responsibilities in a boxing defense, unless you use some specific tactics, it can get messy against option DT/ILBs have dive back, DE/S have QB, OLB/CBs have pitch. How do you stop the Cam Newton play? Dash/Inverted Veer/Power Read. Whatever you call it. Block power. QB is the dive portion while the RB/jet guy is going outside. Everyone blocked but read DE.

I like the use of "evolve" in the video, rather than "innovate". I think that teaching (communications) skills have to be up there. Great comment

Getting a TEK sled soon. It has been shipped. Will give my thoughts after Spring training. Hey Coach, just checking back in to see if your sled arrived and if you had a chance to try it out and provide some feedback. Thanks! Wa actually coming to CoachHuey to give an update. The Tek Sled is awesome. And HUGE. If you want your team to drive it, lock down the pads. Very easy to do. We tried to drive in lift mode and struggled. Ha. We originally were going to do a 7 man sled, but the thing is so wide, we made it 5man and 2 man, which is actually even better for us because two groups can use at once. For instance, d line was using for shocking and hip extension while Edge guys were using for shock, lift, move, and escape. As already noted, very easy to adjust between the three modes. Getting the parts off the 18 wheeler ain't no joke!! Each pallet (3) was ridiculously heavy. Putting together took about 40 minutes and is actually very simple.

? Whenever you transfer you always "keep" your credits at the university you are leaving. Now, whether they are accepted by the new university for a field of study at their school is a different matter. What I find extremely disturbing about the recent high profile transfers is the timing. Classes began at USC on January 10th, and QB Caleb williams registered around January 28th (according to espn.com) Now the article goes out of its way to say that he "registered registered for classes with his academic adviser late Friday, ahead of the school's final deadline to do so" Even with the MLK Holiday, if his classes were MWF He missed 8. If T Th he missed 6. Where is the "Come On" man shout when you need it. Hence many might opt for 4 year contracts, which essentially becomes the same thing we have now. Remember, under my plan, the college has to offer that. This is also a great way to equalize colleges recruiting. Bama might offer a 5 star a four year scholarship. But might only offer a 3 star a one year. But Ole Miss might offer that same 3 star a four year offer giving them a leg up on recruiting him. Of course that 3 star might only want a 1 year and same for the 5 star.

Some people are a little too obsessive over HS sports. Some people are a little too obsessive over SPORTS period. At any level. Why such visceral emotions can be brought out by the accomplishment of others that have such small relation to you (maybe geography, maybe shared school attendance) is bewildering. It probably could be reasoned that HS sports actually SHOULD have the most "obsessiveness" in that the fans could be more connected to the players than other levels for both students and adults. The QB could be the best friend growing up, a defensive lineman might be the neighbor's kid who cuts your yard, the kicker could be in your algebra class. What the hell connection do the people flipping cars over when a pro team wins have with those players? Fandom is just odd. You are correct, but fan is just the word fanatic shortened.

But all that is regardless of whether they change from 1 year only scholarships to my model of offering 1, 2, 3, or 4 year scholarships or not. Which give the players MORE choices and more protections and even more transferability if desired!! So not sure if you are understanding what I am saying. I get your point. Do you at least get what I am trying to say even if you disagree? All I hear is, "CONTRACTS, EMPLOYER, EMPLOYEE." No, I understand what you are saying. What I am saying is that such endeavors will very likely be viewed as employer/employee arrangements. The reason that is all you hear is because that is ALL THAT MATTERS in this discussion. That is the NCAA's concern. That finally there will be sentiment to say "enough is enough... the emperor has no clothes...those men and women are employees." For example I have an ex student who had a solid HS career at a big time HS, signed with a solid FCS school and after a few years BLEW UP (in a good way). He is now at an ACC school. Based on the language in these opinions, I can definitely see the NCAA being extremely concerned if they tried to defend something along the lines of "You signed a 4 year deal, you have to sit out a year" in court WITHOUT it being a prima facie case of employee/employer relationship. Quite frankly, I am sure there are several policies that the NCAA recognizes will likely not stand the scrutiny of legal challenges on the basis of anti trust law. Kavanaugh also states As I mentioned, it doesn't take someone steeped in Constitutional Law to see that the court in general, and Justice Kavanaugh in particular sees right through the past 100 years of "student athlete model". Colleges are already offering the multi year scholarship model if they so choose. The difference here is that you seem to want some caveats to protect the monopsony (my new word of the day) practices of the NCAA as a whole. What I am saying is the courts recent rulings invalidate any "well, this is how they have been doing it" thought processes so any reference to previous "transfer rules" may not be valid. I am suggesting that the Supreme Courts language in the unanimous Alston decisions is signaling that future challenges to the "amateur nature of college athletics" being necessary may very well also go against the NCAA. And, as I mentioned before--Brian Kelly, Lincoln Riley, Billy Napier.. all had agreements with Universities to be there multiple years. Before someone says "well that's different, they were employees--, my entire point is that the NCAA is extremely concerned that the next step will be courts saying "You know what, so are the players". Understand. How is that different than a kid who uses his transfer up after his freshman year and wants to transfer his junior year?

Just do not buy your logic at all. Don't think that would hold up in a court of law the way you think it would. As you point out, it was done that way for 70 years. It is STILL being done that way currently after they use their "free" transfer. Court cases are now being won by plaintiffs attacking the NCAA anti trust laws. First O'bannon, now Alston (unanimous SC decision). Justice Gorsuch in the majority opinion stated In a concurring opinion, Justice Kavanaugh stated It doesn't take a Con Law scholar to see that Kavanaugh is just ITCHING to strip more of the faux amateur facade away from the NCAA image. He essentially is signaling more to challenge things here. But all that is regardless of whether they change from 1 year only scholarships to my model of offering 1, 2, 3, or 4 year scholarships or not. Which give the players MORE choices and more protections and even more transferability if desired!! So not sure if you are understanding what I am saying. I get your point.

HOW IS SIGNING A 2 (or 3 or 4) YEAR SCHOLARSHIP DIFFERENT THAN SIGNING A 1 YEAR SCHOLARSHIP? ?? Because you are suggesting that limitations on movement could/would be attached which would be argued as horizontal restraints restricting trade and in violation of anti-trust laws Saying "Hey, we will honor 4 years of scholarship payments if you choose to come here" as an enticement to recruit an athlete would be fine. Saying "BUT...we are attaching a non compete clause with it" would not. Remember all of this--- ALL of it-- stems from the fact that the NCAA Institutions have been in an employer/employee relationship with athletes for 70 years but it has never been treated as such. Just do not buy your logic at all. Don't think that would hold up in a court of law the way you think it would. As you point out, it was done that way for 70 years. It is STILL being done that way currently after they use their "free" transfer.

Forget the word contract. The school and the student already sign a scholarship but it is good for just one year. Just have scholarships that can be 1, 2, 3, or 4 year long. If you sign a 1 year, you are free to leave after that year and go anywhere including signing back at your school. You could then sign 1 year or even a 3 year after that. If you sign another 1 year, then you are free to transfer or stay again. But if you sign a 4 year, you have to play there for 4 years. But you also get the security of knowing the school has to honor the scholarship for 4 years. BUT, you can still transfer like you used to be able to, BUT, you have to sit a year. This just seems like the most common sense thing. Coach, I think Shakespeare would apply here. "A rose by any other name..." Point being it doesn't matter what you call it. Function over title. The NCAA has spent the better part of 7 decades claiming that there is no employee/employer relationship. The term "student-athlete" was coined before most members here were born (and likely before ANY member here was coaching) to avoid labor law protections and workman's compensation claims by arguing that there was no employee / employer relationship. What you are suggesting seems VERY much like an employee/employer relationship. The reason you say it is a common sense thing (I don't disagree with you) is that...SURPRISE.... the NCAA Institutions (and by extension the NCAA) are ABSOLUTELY in an employee/employer relationship with athletes participating in revenue generating sports. Just like I don't think there would ever be an artificial cap on coach and admin salaries, I can't see the NCAA willingly just saying "Ok, you got us... there is and has been an employer/employee relationship for the past 70 years..." HOW IS SIGNING A 2 (or 3 or 4) YEAR SCHOLARSHIP DIFFERENT THAN SIGNING A 1 YEAR SCHOLARSHIP? ??

Hey, anyone remember me saying that contracts were the solution to all this mess. Sign a 1 year contract at your own risk. Sign a 4 year for stability and security, but now you can't transfer without sitting out a year. 2 and 3 year contracts also available. Sounds like the perfect solution to me. yes... except the NCAA would then not be able to stand in front of courts and say that the participants were not employees. THAT is the point of no return that the NCAA has so desperately tried to avoid for multiple decades. Plus I would suspect that such provisions would be akin to "non compete" clauses- and as such the signers would look to be compensated for such things. Don't the coaches already have contracts? Didn't Lincoln Riley, Brian Kelly, Billy Napier, and Mario Cristobal all have contracts? Forget the word contract. The school and the student already sign a scholarship but it is good for just one year. Just have scholarships that can be 1, 2, 3, or 4 year long. If you sign a 1 year, you are free to leave after that year and go anywhere including signing back at your school. You could then sign 1 year or even a 3 year after that. If you sign another 1 year, then you are free to transfer or stay again. But if you sign a 4 year, you have to play there for 4 years.

Looks like loyalty, vis-a-vis the transfer portal, is a sword that cuts both ways. No loyalty from players, no loyalty from coaches. At least in the Pros, the players have a contract.........
