The passing games I learned and have been associated were ahead of their time, and I have never stopped learning. This drive for continuous improvement has allowed me to not only stay “in touch” with the game I love, but to help others gain the exposure I was blessed with as well.
Much of the influences on me have molded my identity to be that of a “passing game coach.” I’ve had excellent tutors whose offensive systems embodied some of the game’s newest trends. Combining facets of the Run and Shoot, the BYU system, and the West Coast offense, this highly diversified and aggressive approach combines quick-rhythm passing (both horizontal and vertical), a zone and gap scheme oriented running game, and no-huddle capabilities with multiple shifts, motion, and personnel groupings. I have also been granted special access to meetings and practices with some of the best minds in professional and college football, further diversifying my base of football knowledge. Becoming well versed in these systems has allowed me to fuse many ideas, culminating in the system I currently employ. Most important of all, however, is the fact that I know that success is reliant on what the players are able to learn, rather than what the coach knows.
The “learnability” of the system has proven itself on the field at the junior college, high school, and small college levels. The results were the season record holders for passing and receiving at each level, and developing the talents for a player to make a run at the all-time Division 2 passing title. Furthermore, as at the prep level, the system was installed all the way down to the junior high.
From there, I adjusted the system so that the concepts and techniques could be executed at the youth level. Further, a communication system that allows the coach to guide the quarterback’s thought process on a down-by-down basis has been developed. Moreover, the teaching and procedures throughout demand mutual accountability between the player and the coach.
Most recently, the system language has shifted further. There isn't a pattern or concept one would see on Saturday or Sunday that doesn't fall into our naming convention. Further, the ability to teach install and build as the season progresses is maintained - and even streamlined.
I have had the privilege of helping programs from California to Virginia, and Ohio to Texas. I can assure you timely, quality services, and tireless effort to help your program be the best it can be. Further, my relationship with each program doesn’t end with a clinic or sending of a package. Clients will get regular updates of video, presentations, and system material, as my experience as a coach have made me keenly aware that an offensive system is continually evolving; the programs I work with will get the newest and best I have to offer.
