Heartbreaking news out of William Jewell College. Prayers for the family, teammates, coaches, and everyone impacted by the passing of MicahJo Barnett. No coach, teammate, or family should ever have to experience a loss like this.
The entire football community stands with William Jewell during this unimaginable time. Rest in peace, MicahJo. 🙏
“You kinda come out of there with a chip on your shoulder, especially playing at this level. Not a lot of people believe in you coming from a small high school.”
@Spartan_Footbal alum LB Keyshaun Elliott (@8Keyshaun) reflects on how growing up in Richmond, Missouri, shaped him into the player and person he is today.
The #Eagles are hiring Beyah Rasool as a defensive assistant, sources tell @CBSSports.
Worked for the Raiders last season. Before that, was an assistant defensive backs at University of Florida and a defensive backs coach at Bowling Green.
The hardest job to get in the coaching world is the first job after being a GA. You have less experience, need a job to keep following your dreams, and are probably pretty broke…
Don’t give up, keep applying, figure out what can you make work #Coaching
It’s a drill to work specifically on pass rushing/pass blocking, the same way 9 on 7 or Pods are designed to work specifically on the run game. They all have inherent advantages/disadvantages, but serve very specific purposes in development.
The reality is, 2nd & 7+ and 3rd & 3+ are generally greater than 75% pass, even before taking into account other confirming factors like backfield set, O-Line stance, verbal communications, etc. So there are many situations in team periods or games where it’s essentially a guaranteed pass rushing situation.
One thing I have long held an issue with is the posting and dissecting of every single 1v1 rep from practices on social media. Anyone can look like a hero or dud on any given rep. Especially if you’re trying new moves or techniques, which is exactly what practice is for.
Big S/O to @CoachReed_ODU for hosting that talk session yesterday. A coach using their free time to help other coaches is about as genuine as it gets in this profession.
I met a lot of other great coaches and got years of wisdom in a day. 🙌🏼
