Information Exchange

Recently, I have been talking with a number of coaches that has led to questions that follow. I talked with a coach who went to the state finals, got inside the 5 yard line 4 times, did not convert any of those attempts and lost by 1 score.

I firmaly believe that if that team would have run Blast 34 (discussed in detail with another entry) they would have converted at least three of those attempts and won going away.

But he did not know about the play or its success rate.

This is the reason for creating the EQualizer Group discussion board (http://www.facebook.com/groups.php?ref=sb#/group.php?gid=59835380816). The exchange of information: a coach can post up a question about a difficulty he has with his scheme and other coaches can post up something that he does with his scheme well that just might be the answer.

So here are the questions:

1. What one thing about your offense would you like to do better?

2. What one thing about your defense would you like to do better?

3. During this clinic season, what are you researching to improve your program?

I will post up each of the questions separately on the discussion board and let the flow of information begin.

I believe the best coaching that takes place in America, takes place at the high school level. A friend of mine who coached offense backs at Miami said his job was easy because he got to coach D-1 athletes developed by you the high school coach. And the way we can improve our schemes is to share information on boards such as this.

Martin, we are still waiting to see that screen.

Be11!
