[Coach Dan Casey @CoachDanCasey]

The Offensive Line doesn’t need any other position to be good. Every other position needs the Offensive Line to be good.

The most important position group in football.

It’s always all about the OL…Most important ingredient in preparing for the 2026 season

1) OL Pad Level…Win the game of leverage and you win the 1 on 1….Win the 1 on 1 and u get the first down…Get the first down and u win the game

2) The more OL on the field during every game as season progresses, the more wins…Create 6,7,8 OL on the field at once with unique formations…the more who play the better the camaraderie , better camaraderie equals more wins

3) The more positive public recognition to OL creates effort beyond realistic imagination…Praise the group, the individual, who never gets public praise

4) Reward full speed aggressive great leverage ass whipping finishes …. Even if wrong assignment… encourage a confident assignment free of worry by teaching that if miss an assignment , that’s human and forgivable, just miss it with an ass kicking fundamental victory of the wrong defender…Everyone will make a mistake… just make it with perfect violence and technique

5) Design every game plan with the most important ingredient being that it creates success for your OL…Mixture of concepts…Pocket Move, screen, Misdirection Run RPO, Max Protect, Plan to handle the defenses “War Daddy” early in the plan

Remember…Want incredible success…It’s always about the OL

Off-Season planning is so important to in-season success. What do you need a plan for?? Here are some things...

[Jim Shapiro @jimshapiro]

There are 3 kinds of athletes.

1) All in! Show up early, work hard, communicate with coaches. Outcome: Coaches and teammates trust them to get the job done on the field. Most likely to earn a high level of playing time if athletically capable.

2) Show up sometimes. Typically late. Communicate after the fact. Outcome: Coaches aren’t always sure what they’re going to get from them, so this impacts playing time.

3) Missing in action. Don’t show up, don’t communicate, no good reason for missing. Outcome: They eventually get passed by players who are committed and dependable. Typically are cut or quit the team.

Which one are you?

[NBA History @NBAHistory]

The NBA mourns the passing of José Ortiz (1963-2026). Selected 15th overall in the 1987 NBA Draft by the Utah Jazz, José played parts of two seasons in the NBA, and played with Puerto Rico in four FIBA World Championships and four Olympic Games. We extend our deepest condolences to the Ortiz family.

Coaches who only correct never connect.

“Negative experiences without teaching kill morale.” - Nick Saban

The hard moment isn’t the problem.

Leaving it without a lesson is.

That’s what transformational coaching actually looks like.

[Coach Swit @CoachSwit]

Never understood H.S. coaches who ignore freshman or JV programs.

That’s the future of your varsity team.

Then they complain about no depth, culture, or players ready for varsity.

If you only coach varsity, you’re not building a program—you’re just coaching a team.

[Matt Lisle @CoachLisle]

Coaches: You can be both tough/demanding AND fun/loving.
You don't have to choose one or the other.
