[Coach Portz 🏈 @CoachPortz]

In 2018, Anacortes went 0-9. We had just 16 healthy players in our entire program and had to forfeit our final game.

In 2019, we cancelled varsity football.

We burned the program to the ground and rebuilt it from the bottom up.

We invested heavily in our youth teams. We attacked the offseason. We recruited athletes in the halls like crazy. We changed the style of football we played to attract basketball and baseball players and built relationships with those coaches to help encourage multisport athletes. We hired coaches who cared about development and long term success and we challenged our staff to make football practice the best part of an athlete’s day.

We returned to varsity football in 2021.

Since then: 80-95 athletes in our program each year. 60-8 record. Two state championships.

I’m not saying we have it all figured out. We don’t. What works at Anacortes may not work at another school.

But football is a numbers game.

If we want this sport to survive, we have to be willing to ask ourselves a hard question:

What can we change to make more kids want to play football?

Then do those things.

This is the greatest sport on the planet, and it breaks my heart watching programs across our state cancel seasons because they can’t put enough kids on the field.

Rebuild. Adapt. Get creative. Find your formula.

Every school and every community has a different answer.

I hope every program facing this challenge finds theirs because football is worth fighting for.

I love that the scorebug just says “nooo” which sums up this matchup perfectly

Fullback Nationalism 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸

America was objectively a better nation when every high school, college and NFL team had a fullback.

[Coach Tyler Procive @CoachTPro]

Same goes for DL. All the fundamentals come from reading the hip of the block. You only get 1 step to read then its on like Donkey Kong.

[Chad Johnson • GameDay Systems @Coach_ChadJohn]

Most OL problems aren’t scheme problems.

They’re FUNDAMENTAL problems.

If your offensive line can’t consistently execute base, down, reach, and combination blocks, adding more plays won’t fix it.

[Chris Fore @chriscfore]

I remember as a young assistant coach thinking I needed to have a Knute Rockne speech in the back pocket for every practice.
I soon realized 99.8% of the kids didn't listen or hear a dang thing coaches say after most practices. They can't wait to get out of there!!

[Coach Tyler Procive @CoachTPro]

Fantastic DLine answer.

DO YOUR JOB

“One of the things I liked most about working for you,” Saban said to Belichick, “I knew exactly what to expect [and] what you expected from me. I worked other places and that was never, ever clearly defined. It’s amazing to me how many people work with or for someone and it’s just assumed that they know what you’d like them for them to do. I thought that whether it was the players that we brought to the team, the people that worked in personnel or whatever, you defined for them and then you let them do their job.”

I’m reposting this bc I think it’s some of the best teaching tape I’ve done all year & not enough ppl (coaches/QBs) watching!! This should be must watch just to challenge your thinking and understanding of the game from QB position! Sorry, I just really enjoyed making this & teaching the nuance of the game!

[Kurt Warner @kurt13warner]

I mentioned earlier about an awesome @Seahawks video - taking a look at their game vs 49ers & all the little things that have BIG implications! If u love learning & like “pure progression” passing, you gotta watch this #StudyBall!

A sign of intelligent person is their ability to simplify things, not complicate them.

[Coach Tyler Procive @CoachTPro]

I'm statistically curious what data says about the benefit of a 3 man pressure compared to a 4 man rush to a 5 or 6 man blitz. Showing results of sacks, incompletions, and scrambles.

My hypothesis is the benefit is exponential from 3 to 4. Small from 4 to 5. But 6 is strong.

But Engage Eight was my favorite Madden play, Kurt.

[Kurt Warner @kurt13warner]

I will never understand defenses that run BLITZ-0 (straight man to man with no one helping on the backend) without having a quick add on or every defender at LOS (line of scrimmage)!!

It exposes you on backend and gives you no advantage (everyone can be blocked) on the front end!!

Someone help me???
