3 Coaching Truths:

1. Culture isn’t what you say, it’s what you allow.

2. Leadership isn’t a title, it’s a responsibility.

3. Tough teams aren’t born, they’re built every day.

Great teams don’t happen by accident.

They’re built on purpose.

[𝙲𝚘𝚊𝚌𝚑 𝙸𝚊𝚗 𝚃𝚊𝚝𝚞𝚖 🏈 @CoachTatum90]

Players,

If your coach moves you to a different position, don’t take it personally.

He’s probably not moving you away from the field, he’s trying to find the spot that gives you the best chance to get on it.

Trust the process. Compete.

🚨 Parents of High School Football Recruits

One of the biggest mistakes I see in recruiting is when parents try to take over the process instead of supporting it

College coaches are evaluating much more than film, statistics, and athletic ability. They are evaluating how a prospect communicates, handles adversity, interacts with others, and whether the family will be a positive fit within the program

Over the years, I have seen talented players miss opportunities because of poor communication, unrealistic expectations, social media issues, constant parental involvement, or simply a lack of understanding of how recruiting actually works

Some of the biggest mistakes parents make:

🔹 Speaking for their son during the recruiting process

🔹 Contacting coaches excessively

🔹 Treating camp invites as scholarship offers

🔹 Inflating height, weight, or testing numbers

🔹 Comparing their son to other recruits

🔹 Focusing too much on rankings and social media attention

🔹 Ignoring academic requirements

🔹 Chasing every camp without a recruiting plan

🔹 Becoming overly focused on NIL or one specific level of football

🔹 Creating unnecessary drama with coaches, programs, or teammates

A camp invite is not an offer. Rankings do not determine a player’s future. More camps do not automatically lead to more opportunities. And playing at the highest level possible is not always the same as finding the right fit

The best recruiting families:

✅ Allow their son to take ownership of the process

✅ Communicate professionally and respectfully

✅ Focus on academics as much as football

✅ Stay realistic about recruiting opportunities

✅ Trust the evaluation process

✅ Keep the focus on long term development and fit

Parents should focus on helping their son become the best student, athlete, and young man possible. Be supportive, be realistic, trust the process, and allow your son to take ownership of his recruitment

The families that navigate recruiting the best are usually the ones who stay humble, stay professional, and understand that recruiting is about finding the right fit, not winning a popularity contest

🏈 At the end of the day, the goal is not to win recruiting.

It is to help your son find the right school, earn a degree, continue playing football, and create opportunities that will benefit him long after his playing days are over

THIS!!!

Successful coaches know this is the key to ANY offensive scheme!

Anyone can draw up formations, route schemes, plays, but do they understand what it takes upfront?

August to December it's 11 on 11. Those 5/6 up front lead the way to December!

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

[Matt Lisle @CoachLisle]

Great teams are made up of individual athletes who have consciously given up their quest for personal glory, who have willingly and wholeheartedly embraced the character traits of a team player and who have fully committed themselves to the group effort.

Especially effective when you run a Rocket Sweep WITH a false pull by the frontside guard. It puts guard reading LBs in conflict!

[Blair Hubbard @CoachHubb2]

@coachhaddadjr Has been a staple in the FttF Offense since 2009! I wouldn't bring the RB across to the TE like Reid did, that draws eyes back that direction!

[Blair Hubbard @CoachHubb2]

@MikekKuchar Absolutely! I call this "CAT" Center And Tackle! A tag for Bucksweep vs odd fronts. Creates great angles, takes care of a quick nose/shade, and messes with guard reading LBs! And no new learning for tackles that run GT! ALWAYS train your centers to pull!

[Blair Hubbard @CoachHubb2]

@CoachDanCasey @CoachPaddock27 Right down the midline! #FttF

[Blair Hubbard @CoachHubb2]

@ChipSeagle I'll see your Zone Reach & raise you a strong A-gap (under front) reach on Buck! I think the most common issue w/ Buck is that hard to reach strong A-gap defender. Answer...CAT Tag (Center And Tackle) center pulls & kicks, tackle wraps just like GT, REALLY messes with LB keys!

[Blair Hubbard @CoachHubb2]

@Dan_Gehrke_ I hear you!

@CoachShiffman First things First!

Congrats Brother! Go do great things! I know you will!

[JR Conkright @COACH_JRC]

Excited for the opportunity and it’s time to get to work.

Thanks to all the coaches who have helped me get to this point in my coaching career.

@CoachCroyle Not a schematically successful play! See my repost for the reason why!

[Blair Hubbard @CoachHubb2]

When I transitioned our UC offense to Gun in 2009 this was one of the reasons I avoided the spinner method for the offense. It's TOO SLOW getting complimentary plays into the line of scrimmage! Schematically the play that's posted isn't successful, it was blown up by the defense and the only reason it was successful is because the RB bounced it. I'm attaching a number of gun rocket sweeps and off tackle runs. You want to hit the off tackle quick enough that the influence from the sweep on the edge defenders does not give them an opportunity to fall back in and defend off tackle. Keep an eye on outside linebackers and safeties in the film.

✅Orbit Motion
✅Spinner
✅Same side CTR

[Blair Hubbard @CoachHubb2]

This is so true!

[Preston Troyer @CoachFBInsights]

A system is built different.

Every play has a job. Every concept protects your core.

When the defense adjusts, you already know the answer because you built it in.
