No longer just a coordinator

Over the past few years, I've been an assistant coach in a local church kids' flag football league, helping out a buddy of mine who was a head coach.

 

Well this season, they had a lot more kids join up at the 6th to 8th grade level, and they needed additional head coaches.

 

And thus, after several seasons as a hot coordinator who kept getting passed over, I finally got a head coaching job B)

 

Have to say the job interview was pretty rigorous.

 

"You wanna coach a team this year?"

 

"Sure."

 

"Good!  Why don't you coach this team?"

 

"Okay,  I'll do it."

 

Luckily, I kept my cool, answered the questions, said the right things and made it through the process.

 

So as of now, I run my own practices, write and call my own plays, mentor my quarterback, make in-game adjustments, give my own speeches that the kids pretend to listen to...the whole nine yards.

 

It's been a blast so far :D

Do you have a LT?

 

I have a quarterback, a runningback and four receivers (and/or five defenders, depending on who has the ball)

.

If I did have a left tackle, he'd have to stay out of the sight lines,  My sixth grader quarterback would make Drew Brees look like Goliath :lol:

If you need to juice the kids up lmk I have a friend of a friend.

He has apple and orange juice. ;)

 

My quarterback might need some HGH :unsure:

 

When I say he's about half the size of the rest of the team, I'm not exaggerating much.  I'm not sure if he's reached four feet tall yet.

 

So why is he the quarterback?

 

Because he's got a rocket launcher for an arm, throws a perfect spiral and if I tell him "look off the safety", he knows what I mean :lol:

Wow... took you less time to get a head coaching job than Ron Rivera.

 

Screw the playbook, you better start working on your repertoire of cliche answers for the reporters.

 

"One week at a time"

"It is what it is"

"We play all four quarters"

 

I plan to use the Belichick approach (i.e. mostly mumble and answer nothing).

No wildcat? Give us the playbook

 

Prove to me you don't work for Belichick first.

 

 

Do you deflate the balls?

 

No. but that's been a running gag.  Most of the kids know the story.

 

One of our other coaches said to the group, "Tell Tom Brady if these kids can play with fully inflated footballs, so can he" :lol:

      Smitty's pre-draft analysis of Nalo

      By MechaZain · Posted

      If you think Smith's hating on McMillian or tall recievers you didn't watch the video. He may have been guilty of that in the past but he says outright that his problem is people see a tall reciever and tend to overlook everything else about him. He was complimentary and believes the guy will pan out. His only real criticism was comparing Tetairoa to himself actually, saying like he felt like he took plays off when he wasn't the primary target.

      Post Draft takes

      By rmoneyg35 · Posted

      I loved this draft. I think we have 3 starters out our first three picks. Maybe they take a year to develop but I don’t see them taking long.    I think Etiene is going to be a good back up. He’s only 20 so he has a lot to improve on.  I think we will see him be used on special teams this year. He won’t get many reps unless an injury happens because we got two 1,000 yard rb in front of him. I could see Ransom starting but I think he will probably be a back up, maybe playing special teams? I think hes probably got the lowest ceiling of all our drafted players. Cam Jackson will be a back up, probably not a lot of snaps this year. Could end up being a solid player for us.   I love the Mitchell Evans pick. He’s got potential to be our top TE. He had two different injuries that set him back in college but I think if he was healthy he would have been one of the top TE in the draft. I have even more faith in him because ND makes great tight ends. I don’t know if he will play much this year unless an injury happens though. Probably just a blocking TE this year.
