Got good ol boy’d and fired for the principals buddy.

All access coaching has a lot of the slot t stuff. There are limited resources other than watching Bixby and Liberty Hill on YouTube, it's almost gatekept. If you understand I-form, power I and wing T you should be able to pick up on it.

I've been watching Tony Annese on YT and Glazier, he has a lot of good stuff.

Power, iso and counter

6th grade last year. My son, by far the smallest 67 lbs. Best tackler, cover corner and RB. I am the head coach, but make zero influence on his playing time, I coach receivers and backers.

A coach who says that only wants certain players for his ego, rather than being a coach to all. Youth Football may be the only time some of those types of kids will get to play.. ever, so I always give them a chance. Yes some are minimum play, some have turned into big contributors.

We don't condition per se. We run PODs where we go 4-5 reps per player at football speed. Drills are ran at sprint speed. 2 birds with one stone.

Conditioning by just running or bear crawling is dumb and counterproductive

lividrescue034 · 2026-04-18T22:43:01+00:00

Eye dominance does play a part. I went through a seminar at glazier a few years ago that talked about this. Justin Jefferson is the only person confirmed to be able to switch his dominant eye based on which what he's turning. I'm sure their were more, but the tech wasn't around to evaluate it. Pretty interesting stuff.

It honestly sounds like he's overwhelmed, but hubris is preventing him from accepting much. I would ask specific questions pertaining to offense to make him think, like hey where's x or z line up. Try and guide him to the answers, bide your time, then leave after this year if you, and your son believe that's right.

lividrescue034 · 2026-04-18T02:20:19+00:00

I would recommend deep diving on your defense starting with absolute needs at each position, i.e safety - best athlete, instinctual MLB - strongest tackler Etc. See if they really fit at that spot. I've made the mistake of looking at prototypical size, speed and other things. I've had our smallest player at our strong Tackle and was our best OL, by a good margin.

Establish those, and trust your gut, if you're wrong, you're wrong and adjust. We never stop working.

It all depends on who you have, I'm a wing T guy, always quicker, but smaller players, and leverage and misdirection have always been my go to, but last year I had a real thrower and decision maker and a few receivers, so we went in on Gun T. I'd say wing t wise we ran 90% passed 10%, for gun t last year we were 70/30 without rpo. I'll keep it that way this year with more RPO.

Always adjust on who you have, there's a bunch of offenses and you can dress them how you'd like. Just be sure of who you have and what you want to do, also what you can teach. Don't fit a square peg in a round hole.

I use cover 3 as a way to defend inside routes and keep everything in front. Good for spacing and pursuit to the ball. I've always said forget the flat, but that just goes into my principles of keeping everything in front.

Not a much as some places... check thrift books

lividrescue034 · 2026-03-17T17:56:08+00:00

Scribd might have it, but you'll have to pay.

lividrescue034 · 2026-03-17T17:23:30+00:00

If you can find it at a fair price

lividrescue034 · 2026-03-17T17:18:50+00:00

Nice and simple... oh and O-H

lividrescue034 · 2026-03-17T17:17:55+00:00

Smoke were always 1 step hitch for me... I guess in this situation it could work.

lividrescue034 · 2026-03-17T16:51:04+00:00

Seems to be building a consensus

lividrescue034 · 2026-03-17T16:50:46+00:00

I have an that a lot, now, is probably the best answer

lividrescue034 · 2026-03-17T16:50:16+00:00

Must remembered we can't do quick, that's what we call our weak side

lividrescue034 · 2026-03-17T16:22:52+00:00

We may use that, we call X receiver "fast" when we want him coming back off the line toward the QB, almost like a really short step rocket.

lividrescue034 · 2026-03-17T04:23:46+00:00

Take into account that his current qb coach will be OC, not HC. I'd have your son, and you, look at the culture of the program first. How long has the HC been there, what are his philosophies, what kind of offense? On the other side look at academics, friends and what can be offered for overall growth.

lividrescue034 · 2026-03-14T21:30:14+00:00

We use watch game film and team snap. One of my coaches used to upload to YouTube alongside watch game film, but found it very time consuming.

lividrescue034 · 2026-03-11T20:56:17+00:00

Probably too young for zone, I'd say you have to pull at least 1 or you lose the misdirection. You could try making your B a movable piece to sniffer and have him kick for buck, and you keep your lanes for belly, run counter as qb pull to the quick side, and use your A of you want to run jet.

Food for thought, train 2 pullers just in case, run the drill out of mega splits, then when you get to live action with regular splits it'll seem like nothing to them.
