Unknowns are not beatable. There is no play call to win the outcomes of an uncontrollable.
We live to accept what God decides we need. We are not supposed to know why, until we do. Serve him regardless, especially when it is difficult.

It’s a shame that Fedex won’t back their employees with these wild neighborhood citizens. These two men would obviously not have reacted to anyone without being provoked. SMH

I will be donating for sure. Let’s all make sure these men are taken care of while they search for new employment with hopefully a better company that actually cares about them!
Thankful beyond words for everything that the Mill Creek community and

The first of a few donations I will make to show my support. These two MEN did nothing wrong. I would’ve reacted the same way and I wouldn’t have been fired. If you don’t know why I wouldn’t be fired you don’t know the problem!
6 years ago I stepped foot on Georgia Southern’s campus as a freshman pursuing my undergrad, and today I finish my Masters.
I love this place with all of my heart, and I am forever grateful to Statesboro. Double Eagle!! G.A.T.A.
Had a blast!

When I started coaching I was 50 pounds overweight. That’s was 7 seasons ago.
A little over a year ago I decided to get back to a healthy weight and it has done more for me mentally than physically.
I’m more efficient, and able to handle those long hours in the fall much
I love receiving updates from players I coached in the past. It’s awesome to hear of their success in and outside of athletics. It shows me I made an impact on a young mans life, and that’s what this is all about.
@txhsfbchat
If I’m building a staff my 9th grade head coach is someone I trust with every fiber of my being. Preferably someone who has been through it already with a lot of experience. JV head coach is someone I want to evaluate and promote, they will be a HFC in the near future.
Coaches see all of the possible life events/struggles that our players haven’t experienced yet (most of them).
Intentionality like this says much more about a coach than any accolade or accomplishment.
Love this from new Pitt WR’s Coach JJ Laster (
@CoachJjLaster
) on why he’s tough on his group and why he coaches like that. Shows he cares about his players and wants them to succeed. Love it.

My off-season project. If you are interested in looking into what I am calling the Split-Stack Defense, complete this form. I don't think this is the best thing ever but it's what I installed as a first year DC.
At least an excuse to talk ball!

DB specific drills that actually occur during a game.
One I use all the time, I call it “Drop Angle Tackle”.
Essentially, simulate a DB getting ran off in man coverage, realize it’s run or the ball is out, now leverage what you see and make a play on the runner.
@coachmatsumoto
If you aren’t using
@PQDSystem
for everything you create on offense/defense/special teams within your program then you are working to long I guarantee it. Once you learn it you will be more efficient and more available for other responsibilities. Used it all year, love it.
If you are going to Atlanta Glazier this weekend, on Saturday I’ll be in the lobby at 11:00 am, just before lunch, if you want to talk defense (or offense I guess), crash course photoshop, or snag templates off my hard drive.
Did it last year and had a good group for awhile!

@newdbcoach
You have to decide if you’re a box defense or spill defense.
Align coverages to match the # of defenders you have committed to the fit.
I always try to keep players out of R/P conflict as much as possible. Unless you have the dudes!
There’s a balance somewhere!
My heart used to drop when I would see Dad’s toss their kids around during play time. My wife caught me tossing Nash around in a travel bag. We call this “FLY”! 😂
You don't need an inside run period every week to stop the run every week. You don't need 7v7 every week to stop the pass. 11 v. 11 periods, for some reason, produce the most immediate feedback for a def. staff.
A very bright future is waiting for this young man. Hayden is mentally resilient, something I noticed quickly after joining Mill Creek, and I have no doubts that he will find success. He’s just wired for it.
Congratulations!!!

Coach O says LSU does their Fit Drill every day. This gets players prepared in both mind and body while keeping the players fresh.

I observe students every day checking their grades during instruction, while I am trying to get them to pass my class; and will proceed to go to sleep after asking me how to pass my class. Make that make sense…
At the end of the day; it’s about these young men and women. Every single one matters. As coaches, we must help them to discover their abilities, and enable them to recognize their own self-worth!

@OSUatRivals
I agree. The TWO hand jam makes it natural to stay square. The progression after this drill is to obviously know when to open but still maintain leverage and control with off hand.
We will be hosting a Vet coaches breakout session at AFCA this year. Encouraging all Vet coaches from any level to come in and network as well as get your questions answered as well as Leadership tactics, Chalk talk and Recruiting gems 💎. All are welcome. Tuesday at 5pm.

They call the 34 and 33 the 2 most multiple defenses for this reason. If you aren’t showing 42/43/51/etc from your odd system than you aren’t actually that multiple.

with a 4.38 laser 40 and one of the best attitudes anyone will see. He competes at an elite level and makes plays, too! Clemson, Ole Miss, GT, and UCF are 4 of his OVs.
@coachjlovelady
It’s an amazing experience to coach with Coach Lovelady. This program and staff that he has built and maintained over the years is second to none. Go Hawks!
@Realrclark25
Off-hand jam to release opposite of press leverage.
This is what occurs in off man when a DB matches the cut with a strike. A great drill for any match man technique, press, pattern match, etc
Where do we start with this one

I really love the return of Raheem Morris to Atlanta. Idc what any hater says, Raheem was the best candidate 💯 He needs the support around him and I hope that works out the way he wants it to this time. I know his record, and still love the hire.
What’s your record haters??🧐

Recruiting fairs were special this week.
Had a blast speaking with great coaches at the next level. Those reactions when they watched what our guys did this season was Priceless!
Easy group to brag on.
Proud is an understatement!
Can’t wait to see them thrive!
