FYI I just completed my SCHSL required training on protecting athletes from abuse, and “screaming at a player for poor performance” was specifically called out as an example of emotional abuse that should probably be reported. So you would need to be very careful expressing your displeasure in a HS setting. I would imagine a wokish college environment is even more protective.FUBeAR wrote: ↑Tue Jul 20, 2021 5:43 pmNothing wrong with the play/scheme. Nothing wrong with execution by 10 of 11 Players. #83 does a very nice job creating space from the DB. Simple 8-10 yard pitch & catch between :02 & :03 and it’s 1st down Paladins.
Won’t call him out, but “Coach FUBeAR” would be VERY upset with 1 (and only 1, from what I see) Player after this play…for 2 reasons, neither of which will I specify.
He would not have made it back to the sidelines before he became acutely aware of my displeasure with him. That Player would have a hard time re-entering any game which “Coach FUBeAR” was Coaching. Players need to be able to trust their Coaches & Coaches need to be able trust their Players. This single play would have completely broken any trust “Coach FUBeAR” had in that particular Player.
IF this Player is a returner in 2021, I hope he has done whatever he needs/needed to do to rebuild trust in him by the Coaching Staff. That, of course, assumes the Coaching Staff values mutual trust the way “Coach FUBeAR” does. I would be shocked if they do not as this is an exceptional & highly experienced Coaching Staff. “Fan FUBeAR” has full faith, confidence, and trust in each of them as individuals and as a Staff.
*Oh…also, looks like Man Free coverage & there is (most likely) a FS playing ‘center field’ out of the frame who would, most likely, have doubled #82 running the CornerPost (or ArrowPost) from the O’s left. The OLB on the top of the frame (#2, I think), most likely, has the RB (lined up on his side), but comes (late) when he sees him staying in to block. #2 would have covered RB if he ran a flat route behind 83’s slant. Still could be open, but more of a touch pass, more risk to get to 1st down marker, and (theoretically, as we see) more risk of Pick6 by D.
never said “Coach FUBeAR” would scream at this Player.Furmanoid wrote: ↑Wed Jul 21, 2021 12:48 pmFYI I just completed my SCHSL required training on protecting athletes from abuse, and “screaming at a player for poor performance” was specifically called out as an example of emotional abuse that should probably be reported.

“Coach FUBeAR” would never deny any Player playing time. He would always provide each Player with the exact amount of playing time they have/had earned.
If somebody just sucks, you can probably sit them (but you can’t yell at them). But if somebody just makes no real effort to block or tackle (or both on the same freaking play), sitting them might be seen as “punishment” for lack of effort. Can’t do that. You can’t yell at him either.

I think it is safe to say HS has the Inside Track. He's the only QB we have with college experience and he is the incumbent. Not saying this won't change but for now he is the starter.apaladin wrote: ↑Wed Jul 21, 2021 10:46 pmCaptains named. Does this give HS the inside track to be the starting QB or it has no impact?

You guys need the training. You were psychically damaged and didn’t even know it. You probably went out and got jobs and stuff when you grew up.Davemeister wrote: ↑Thu Jul 22, 2021 1:41 pm
I remember them well from Little League. Coach had a wicked paddle he used for "physical correction" when necessary. But as 11-12 year-olds we took our b-c's as badges of honor.
