2. Sustainable success: Must have a SYSTEM, but..
Be open to refining the process (continuous improvement)
Must be able to teach the process
Must be have agility under pressure
Must be able to be communicated

3. The qb position…
Predictors of success are low (Ex. ESPN = 30%)
Why?
Too much emphasis on things that are LESS IMPORTANT
Arm talent
Height
CAN BE DEVELOPED!
More Important
Accuracy
Anticipation
Process information
Ability to deal w/ failure

4. What does the qb need? Answers to the problems he will see
Needs sophistication (not complexity)
Same pictures for him in as many ways as possible
Variations to attack different parts of the defense with different people
Teaching must commensurate with the “test” (Gameday)
Must be given the right answers
Run the BEST play, not just any play run as fast as possible
Nor can it always be a “catch all”
Play caller must take responsibility

5. The THOUGHT PROCESS is given on every play (RAMS)
Reading system
Pure Progressions:
Advantage
Concept (Only 3)
Stretch
Object
Scan
Third Fix
Scramble
Advantage Principles: - Safety Structure - LB Displacement - Motion Adjustment - 1 on 1/ Combo
**All of the above build off of the same pictures, making them learnable**
The THOUGHT PROCESS is given on every play (RAMS)

Post Season – system adjustments (rebuild infrastructure) Spring – take advantage of QB SCHOOL (and 7 on 7) - I think mistakes are made here by re-starting - Opportunity to cover Situational Offense - Define answers to coverage problems Fall Camp - Add protection considerations In Season - Game Plan - Practice implementation
