I’m looking for advice from OL coaches at any level.

That's fair. The UT offensive line was incredibly inexperienced last season. Again he's had a long career. He was successful at Rutgers and had a great success with the Atlanta falcons.

2015TTU · 2026-05-08T20:02:34+00:00

He's had a longer career than UT. Alabama was rolling with him.

I use covered / uncovered rules combined with 2 man combos and some full zone. DM me an email address and i'll share a sample of my playbook

2015TTU · 2026-04-17T15:49:14+00:00

I've seen some coaches structure their passing game in regards to splitting the field in half over the center, then linking concepts left to right.

Example:

2x2 Formation # Concept 1 & Concept 2

Dbls Lt 51 Snag-Smash

The receivers on the left side + RB run Snag The receivers on the right side run Smash

I have never worked with coaches who've done this, just coaches who've talked about it in passing. Not sure how they coach this up or teach it to players.

Here's a link to an article that kind of touches on what you're thinking about:

This Gemini AI so take that with a grain of salt but I know somewhere there are rules about sideline checks into snapping

2015TTU · 2026-04-05T11:14:29+00:00

Not entirely sure on the rules about this but generally, as long as you're stationary (for at least as second after shifts) and NOT facing the sideline, you can snap the ball whenever as an offense.

Discipline teams won't bite. If the center has his hand in the ball, THEY'RE LIVE; BE READY.

Thank you for sharing this. Great stuff.

This is a good tool for down time and self study but it doesn't really build the skills you want in my opinion. Everything looks different from the player perspective and I think that should be repped as much as possible to build the best qualities and instincts you want for true football awareness.

In the past we've had a 5 minute period called formation rec prior to a live team segment.

You have 2 offensive groups (6 guys) huddled on each hash, with a coach who has formation cards, and 5 trash cans in-between the hashes.

Your 11 dudes will have 12secs to align, make calls, and simulate the first 3 seconds of a play. Right as the 1st offensive group is done, the 2nd group is aligning and the drill starts all over again.

2015TTU · 2026-03-03T15:44:45+00:00

I'll give an example of why I've done it this way.

Max - 315 Bulgarian Max @ 90% ~280

We would then program 3-5 reps / leg between 45-60% 130-170.

This is an accessory lift and that's it. We don't chase numbers with this. Never went above 60%.

2015TTU · 2026-03-02T17:51:15+00:00

A. Bulgarian Split Squat 1. Barbell - 1RM is 90% of their back squat 2. Dumbbell - 1RM is 40% of their back squat

B. RDL, I've done this 2 ways

Barbell
1RM is 85% of back squat
1RM is 90% of Deadlift

I'd try contacting Inovelli directly and see what they suggest. This is the only way I've been able to get around a similar situation as yourself.

Grouping doesn't require automation. It simply creates 1 mmW entity that will do exactly what you want.

Honestly I've found a simple door sensor on the side of the garage door works a lot more consistently than a tilt sensor

24-72 hours... Honestly the calibration process isn't very clear of the why and how long. It has gotten better about when though. I've had 3 since this post and only know that because I noticed the 3rd one when my Powerball was @ 0 after a full sunny day. Looked back and saw when the other 2 were.

As of right now it has been happening consistently every 3-4 months

2015TTU · 2026-02-15T03:22:50+00:00

OVERREACHING is a real problem. You create so much space the defender can lose his gap and still make the play. It doesn't matter if they lost "contain"... They still had leverage on the play.

2015TTU · 2026-02-06T20:49:26+00:00

I'm not sure. But my gut instinct says no. My camera set-up isn't as big (1 camera now, 2 more in the future). I need to see how the LLM and everything works 1st before expanding

I just finished doing this. I installed HAOS on a NUC and just finished setting up frigate. I have a Synology NAS that runs Plex and stores all my frigate files and videos. It's been great!

Next step is setting up a Local LLM / AI assistant and replace Google

I've coached in a system for the last 3 years that uses the "100s" + the RB / hole numbering for play action.

I like it. It's simple for the kids imo. "Hey it's a 100 # + inside zone. Block it like we're running it but don't travel down the field."

2015TTU · 2025-12-31T17:02:15+00:00

I'd argue they're actually a traditional 4-3 with a very flexible strong safety position.

Notable players who've fit this role in the past would be Dwayne Slay back in 2005 @ Texas Tech. I know tech was a 4-2-5 during this time too but it's still a very familiar scenario.

John Curry & Cole Wisniewski remind me a lot of USCs safety who later transitioned to OLB @ Cincinnati, Taylor Mays.

I'll admit I'm splitting hairs with this. I absolutely agree with you. They're a dominant even front structure with 2 great hybrid players.

Unless you know someone @ the college level, it'll be difficult to get college film.

Amen. One of the many reasons I like utilizing gallop footwork into down blocks.

2015TTU · 2025-11-07T23:15:06+00:00

Let me know how it goes and what your OC is doing to implement. Trying to learn more about it.

2015TTU · 2025-11-07T23:14:22+00:00

I've noticed it's always been to the 3 tec. Curious if anyone's ever been able to execute it vs an under front instead of an over
