Coaches, while you’re doing your post-season evals and you’re getting ready for your 2024 opponents, why not have an organized place to collect your thoughts?

Check out my full-season scouting planner:

[Riley Holmes @therileyholmes]

@AlexDaAverage @_coachevans 1) In multi-back sets, those kids are gonna average 12-15 a game. I’m just going back to what you said about running them into the ground.

2) Tape vs Quality Tape matters.

[Riley Holmes @therileyholmes]

@AlexDaAverage @_coachevans 1) If a RB can’t handle 12-15 a game in HS, would you sign him?

2) If I meet the measurables, yes. But, touches are earned, not given no matter how you want to think about it. If he deserves a bigger number, he’ll get it. Idc what offense it is or what level it is.

[Riley Holmes @therileyholmes]

@AlexDaAverage @_coachevans As far as wear and tear… in a multi-back offense, your top ball carrier might carry it 125-150 times on the high end over 10 games. Is that too much for you?

How many clips do you think a pass catcher needs on film to persuade a potential college coach? I’m just curious

[Riley Holmes @therileyholmes]

@MagnusFTS “short slow guy” - proceeds to mention a 4 year starter at Clemson and former Pro Bowler

and I think I speak for everyone when I say that coaches would adjust their scheme for that talent… even if he is just a short slow guy like Hunter Renfrow

[Riley Holmes @therileyholmes]

you’re right

genetics do

[Mag @MagnusFTS]

@_coachevans Systems like that don’t get kids to the next level.

[Riley Holmes @therileyholmes]

@AlexDaAverage @_coachevans how is it a bad thing for one skill kid to not get enough touches but then at the same time it’s a bad thing for a kid to get too many?

would you turn away a D1 at WR/TE because he only caught 20 balls his senior year or D Henry because he ran it 400 times?

[Riley Holmes @therileyholmes]

it really doesn’t matter what scheme you run

run whatever you can teach and adjust within

[Coach Speak @coachspeak_pod]

Name a football opinion that’ll have you like this…

[Riley Holmes @therileyholmes]

I’m as RTDB heavy as anyone, and I’m gonna agree with this one to a point

but I don’t think it comes down to run/pass

it really is:

1) players > plays
2) adaptability within said scheme

[Lance Burrell @Coach_Burrell1]

The WingT isn't a great scheme fit for every program no matter how much diehards want to act like it is. Plenty of programs are ruined with run heavy offenses every year but its fun to pretend that "run the damn ball" is chiseled on the original 10 commandments.

[Riley Holmes @therileyholmes]

@Del492503852181 @TheJgriff73 @_coachevans Can you list out those 5-6 plays for me I can make sure we don’t run them since you know exactly when we’re gonna run them? thanks ✌🏼

[Riley Holmes @therileyholmes]

kids get bored of losing

not scheme

[matt @cletusinva]

@_coachevans Yep and kids will get bored with the wing t and stop coming out for the team.

*****NFL SCHEDULE LEAK*****

TENNESSEE @ JACKSONVILLE 1 PM

[Riley Holmes @therileyholmes]

The former Titans, Julio Jones and Andre Johnson?

[SleeperNFL @SleeperNFL]

Chargers OC Mike McDaniel on Quentin Johnston:

"I think he's a guy that has some traits in his game that are similar to some very powerful, explosive, productive receivers I've had in the past... Namely Julio Jones and Andre Johnson... so we're pushing him."

Somehow I do this on MLB The Show all the time

[Rany Jazayerli @jazayerli]

The Royals tonight were the first team in major league history to:

1) walk zero times
2) strike out 17+ times
3) hit zero home runs
4) win

I’d easily pay $70 for a World Cup specific FIFA game again

[This Is Football Gaming ⚽🎮 @T_I_F_G]

2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa was released on this day in 2010. EA's ace tournament tie-in delivered smooth gameplay, the divisive vuvuzela drone, strong commentary and a cracking soundtrack. Screeds of teams and an immersive Story of Qualifying mode. Memories of this one?
