I’m gonna run Power out of 23P unbalanced 40 times in a row. I’m having a 10 minute opening drive with 6 minute quarters. The final score will be 7-3. Neither one of us will have fun.

Just heard a color analyst say on ESPN “I like this guy at linebacker because he reads pulling guards, which most college linebackers don’t do.” Uh, buddy… I teach my JV linebackers to read guards. That’s linebacker 101…

Let me explicitly state what I mean here. Coaching requires time beyond the normal 40 hour work week. How much time is up for debate. My issue is with the fetishization of “the grind.” It isn’t healthy, and it’s driving a lot of really good coaches out of the profession.
