[QUOTE="slugboy, post: 820756, member: 282"] If you’re going to use the chart and the percentages, you can have a grad assistant with the chart who knows that stuff next to you at all times, and they say “kick” or “go for it” before the refs even start the clock (or about the same time), and you signal the play. Also, when you call the third down play, you should already know what you’re going to do on 4th and 3 vs 4th and 1/2. You should be thinking at least one move ahead, if not more, on your play calls. Curry was starting to get kind of decent later on. The first years were ROUGH. There are only so many hours in the day, and Collins’ day has got to be more than full, so fitting in that kind of review might need removing something else from your day. However, a coach like Collins only gets to a P5 head coaching position with a lot of mentoring, so he should have the mentors out there. Who would he get? I’m sure an O’Leary would say “there’s a discipline and toughness problem you need to work on”. Fridge would probably point out mechanics and fundamentals before every getting into wrinkles. I remember reading about how people repeat mistakes. A clueless person will just keep repeating mistakes. An above-average person will try something different each time. A smart but overconfident person will keep trying the same thing again and again with the belief that they can figure out how to make it work. This doesn’t look quite like that, but we have many of the same problems to kick off this season as we did for the last two years, and they’re not fixed. Football is a game of inches. Missing by an inch is the same on the scoreboard as missing by 20 yards. Even in coachspeak, you don’t say that. [/QUOTE]
