    Derrick Harris asked:

    I want to be a QB but i don't understand running plays and which way to turn. Are there any websitess to help me with that?

    Coach’s answer:

    For Qbs, it largely depends on what your responsibility is after the ball is handed off and what the object of the play is. For instance, if you want to shift or hold the linebackers, turning away from the hole to hand the ball off will be successful. ... Continue reading »

    John Wick asked:

    My son plays peewee.He needs to ratchet up his intensity and become a harder hitter in practice to get more playtime. How do I help him?

    Coach’s answer:

    I'd recommend you hitting with him. As his father, open up the door to let him know its ok to treat you like the opposing team or team mate. Make him hit with you and don't take it easy on him. Let him win a few times and instruct him along the way. Th... Continue reading »

    Kerry Case asked:

    What can I do to help build my son's confidence?

    Coach’s answer:

    One of the best lessons I learned growing up was when I moved from WR to QB. As a WR, I felt like everytime I came off the line I was open. And while I understood that other WRs may also be open, I had the best hands and should get the ball first. I of... Continue reading »

    Teddy Dates asked:

    How do you help a team become winners when the coach shows no respect for the kids and the kids domt like him but they love the game

    Coach’s answer:

    The ONLY option is to have the coach replaced. Its not about the players liking him as their coach as much as it is about the players learning. As they get older, they'll learn to appreciate the lessons he taught and not the bad attitude he conveyed. B... Continue reading »

    Ariff Cure asked:

    What advice do u have for a first year jounior high qb?

    Coach’s answer:

    In my opinion, accuracy is a developmental process that has to be catered to from a variety of perspectives, but with the same intensity. Off the field, work with tennis balls, in a baseball type way. Have the QBs throw with speed at targets, to the le... Continue reading »

    Daniel Massingale asked:

    What would be the best defensive setup for a smaller less athletic defense vs the run and mid-pass?

    Coach’s answer:

    In my opinion, I'd have to agree that every defense has its advantages and disadvantages. However, it might behoove you to consider a 6-4. If you have 4-5 guys you can rely on to acnhor the defense, the interior of the defense should cater to clogging ... Continue reading »
