How I Build My Teams I always liked the idea of ‘possession football’: - Control the game. - A tool to develop players. - The opponent can’t score without the ball. But I built it the wrong way: “Keep the ball. Find a gap to attack.” This turned into “side-to-side” passing. It was boring and ineffective. \ The idea. So, I flipped the idea: Instead of controlling to attack, we attack to control. Play as vertical as possible (while maintaining control). If not possible, pass back. Avoid sideways passes. For better connections and counter-press, we use a vertical, narrow structure: These simple decisions lead to short, vertical, and diagonal passes. This is what I call 'vertical possession' football. \ Make it work. The idea is simple. The execution is not. Over the years, I’ve worked to close the gap between vision and reality. (watch example below) My goal is to get closer to my vision every day. But as Vince Lombardi said: “Perfection is unattainable, but if we chase perfection we can catch excellence.” Here’s my plan to 'catch excellence': 1. Build it my way. Ignore opinions. Opinions lead to conformity. We reduce our philosophy to its essence—and build from there. Everything else is a distraction. 2. Stick to it. We limit ourselves to core principles, and stick to them. When there’s a problem, we don’t change the idea—we improve its execution. 3. Eliminate waste. Building a style of play is like carving a statue. You start with a block of marble and chip away everything unnecessary. All that’s left is the sculpture. We do the same. We cut every unnecessary touch and step: - Fewer touches mean we need less time and space. We have more space to be creative. - The simpler it gets, the more recognizable the style. 4. Obsess over the players. We don’t adapt to opponents. We focus on our players. That's what matters in the long run. When our ideas work, we can compete against anyone. 5. Develop technical and creative players as a by-product. - Possession: Many touches to refine technique. - Vertical: No “easy” sideways passes. Learn to play in tight spaces. - Control: Avoid hectic football. Control the ball to make deliberate decisions. 6. One Training Structure. We compress our philosophy into one structure. Then, we repeat it every session. We make our style of play a habit. And we develop the tools to execute it. 7. Master a Few Exercises. We repeat a small set of core games over and over. We focus on improving execution, not on new drills. The better we execute, the faster we get to our vision. 8. Bottleneck Coaching. We can’t predict what happens, so we don’t over-plan. Instead, we prepare for what might happen. This liberates our coaching: Rather than sticking to pre-planned coaching points, we solve the most critical issue—the bottleneck. 9. Competition Drives Development. Games are the core of our training. Players compete to win. They force each other to get better and better, session after session. 10. Positive Team Culture. I used to react with anger when things didn’t go right. And yes, it can work in the short term. But to build something great, players must stay on the path for a long time. This is more likely when they enjoy the process. Positive reinforcement is harder to do, but more sustainable. \ What's next? That's the plan. Now, it’s all about execution. I'll keep you updated.

COACHES ONLY: THIS IS WHY COACHING EXPERIENCE MATTERS This post is primarily for coaches. Before I get into my own analysis, I want to give Venom Reacts (VENOM 😈) full credit for the film breakdown that prompted this post. He did an excellent job slowing the possession down, identifying where the defensive action actually breaks, and explaining why the final matchup at the rim does not tell the whole story. If you have not watched his video yet, watch it first. His explanation is worth your time. What I want to add is another coaching perspective. If you have spent years completing USA Basketball education, PGC training, NABC development, certification requirements, clinics, continuing education, film study and the thousand other things serious coaches do to become better teachers of the game, watch this possession and tell me what you see. Because I see a coaching problem. Mercedes Russell navigates the low-post screen incorrectly. She goes over it when the coverage requires her to get underneath. That single mistake changes the geometry of the possession and leaves Caitlin Clark forced into an emergency switch against a center at the rim. By then, the defense is already compromised. Clark did not create the mismatch. She inherited it. Could Clark have handled the emergency differently? Coaches can debate that. Maybe there is a late communication, front, dig, foul or emergency rotation January wanted. But none of those possibilities change the first breakdown. Russell loses the coverage. Clark is left trying to survive it. Then watch the timeout. Briann January appears to direct an extremely animated correction toward Clark. Clark clearly disagrees. Stephanie White stands between them and allows the exchange to continue. Now forget personalities for a moment and evaluate this strictly as coaches. What are we trying to accomplish during that timeout? Indiana is protecting a double-digit lead with roughly four minutes remaining. Clark is having a career-level night. This is closing time. My timeout priorities are clock, score, personnel, foul situation, remaining timeouts, offensive organization, defensive coverage, anticipated counters and making absolutely certain my five players leave that huddle composed and connected. The previous possession gets corrected only to the extent necessary to prevent it from happening again: Mercedes, get under it. Caitlin, stay home unless she gets caught. Communicate it. Next play. That takes seconds. Everything else belongs in film. And even if Clark had been completely responsible for the breakdown... I don't believe she was... I still cannot understand using precious late-game timeout bandwidth to publicly unload on a player who is carrying your offense and playing one of the best games of her season. Experienced coaches understand the difference between correction and emotional discharge. We also understand the difference between being a great defender and teaching great team defense. Briann January was an outstanding individual defensive player. Seven All-Defensive selections deserve respect. But playing credentials are not coaching credentials. Her publicly documented coaching résumé remains remarkably thin for the responsibility she now carries: brief college assistant experience while still playing, a long gap, two seasons under Stephanie White in Connecticut, one G League season, and back to White in Indiana. No head-coaching experience. No associate head-coaching experience. No independently established defensive program. And I have found no publicly documented USA Basketball, PGC, NABC or comparable formal coaching credential attached to her résumé. That does not prove she has never completed additional training. It does raise a fair question experienced coaches will immediately understand: Where was the apprenticeship that taught the transition from elite individual defender to elite teacher of five-player defense? Because those are very different jobs. A great defender can solve problems with athleticism, anticipation, toughness and individual technique. A defensive coach has to diagnose the first breakdown, establish five-player rules, teach screen navigation, define switch triggers, organize help behind the action and communicate corrections in a way players can immediately execute. That is why this possession bothers me. It is not because a coach raised her voice. It is because the film appears to show the coach directing the most intense correction at the player who was cleaning up somebody else's mistake. Coaches: watch the play, not the personalities. Then watch the timeout. I would genuinely like to know what you see. X Video analysis credit: VENOM 😈 YouTube: @VenomReacts3

😏Secrets of deceleration assessment… it’s not about the turn.🙋🏽‍♂️ For 15 years I have studied great coaches. A common thread has been that they all use intense actions as movement screens. Thus they have a great coaching eye. ❓Why intense actions? 🙋🏽‍♂️Analysis of sprinting, stoping , turning , hopping, jumping, cutting, backwards running opens a diagnostic window to assess how athletes create pretension and share load across their system. dpfaff has made this clear 🏥Be it for rehab (physios are coaches in my world) or for explosive sports. It’s the same screen, but through different lenses 🧐🤓 👀What are they looking at? 💡The same thing as you. 👀What do they SEE? 🤔Well that’s a different story. Damian Harper, PhD has set the scene for what metrics matter and Tom Dos'Santos has re-clarified the shapes that are safe vs effective for deceleration and COD. ↩️When you watch a 180 degree turn, all the focus is on the turn. Turning and being perturbed at speed is the ultimate speed ability for team sports and also a moment of tragedy for knees and hamstrings. To assess turning efficiency we use vuemotion to measure the shapes , velocities , decelerations and movement efficiency of team sports players. We create PSR reports to simplify the metrics and make it actionable for our clients across professional leagues. ⚽️🏀🏈🥎🎾🏉 📝The plant step is important but is highly impacted by the previous 1-5 steps. 🦘Just like in the Olympics. A good take off in the long jump is the result of the preceding 4-5 “steering steps”. This applies to any jumping when we are converting horizontal to vertical momentum… ❓Does it continue to happen in Braking, COD and agility… 💡These penultimate steps are critical for steering , and are how we constantly adjust our locomaotion. 📝Frans Bosch has made it clear, efficient execution of intense actions are characterised by optimal limb SWITCH and the associated reflexive postures of hip lock. 🤔What movement preference can be observed in the penultimate, antipenultimate, preantipenultimate , propreantipenultimate steps during an intense deceleration? 🤔What clues can you get about a players triple flexion ability? Do they share the load? 🤔How do they coordinate co contractions around hip and knee? Can they sit to create leverage? 🤔 What do asymmetries say about physical qualities and player confidence? 🧪When assessing deceleration for team sports we recognise the 15-0-5 for its maximal intensities but we utilise the 10-0-5 more often because we can get more reps and teaching moments out of it. Needless to say we love ᴍᴀʀᴛɪɴ ʙᴜᴄʜʜᴇɪᴛ new paper on the topic. Key Highlights: 🔹 Effective Pressing: Crucial for disrupting opponents and regaining possession, enhancing offensive opportunities. 🔹 Injury Risks: Pressing increases injury risks, particularly ACL injuries. 🔹 Realistic Training: We compared the 15-0-5 change of direction test with actual match-pressing actions to enhance testing and training realism. 🔹 Peak Speeds: Similar peak speeds in 15-0-5 and match-pressing actions validate the 15-0-5 as a practical tool for assessing and training pressing demands. 🔹 Future Directions (1): Incorporate variability in speed, angle of change in direction and deceleration demands, along with perception-action challenges for better simulation of game conditions. 🔹 Future Directions (2): Motorized sprint resistance devices can enhance assessment and training, providing valuable data for player development and injury prevention. #Football #SportsScience #Research #Training #InjuryPrevention #PerformanceOptimization #EliteAthletes

DC SWAMP EXPOSED. PART 1 - D.C. Blackmail: A Capitol Hill intern reveals how members of Congress are coerced to vote a certain way through blackmail and extortion after affairs & sex parties: “Cawthorn wasn’t lying neither” O’Keefe Media Group founder James O’Keefe has discovered that nothing is as it seems when it comes to Congress Members’ voting patterns, the staffers they hire, or their activity outside of Congress. Meet Titus Warren, a Democrat working for Republicans in Congress. These Republicans do not care about Warren’s political views or the potential of him tipping off the other side. In fact, Titus states that he “loves” Nancy Pelosi and believes that Donald Trump “needs to die.” Still, his employers don’t seem to care how he thinks. While Titus says he keeps these details to himself, he is “sure” that his boss knows his political views, considering the fact that a photo of Nancy Pelosi sits proudly on Titus’ desk. “Every time I see her, or we run into each other, you know, sometimes I’ll even go into her office, then I’ll just go in her candy bowl,” said Titus before confirming that Pelosi knows him and “loves” him as he “loves” her. Titus also boasted that he gets to attend “a lot of embassies and a lot of events at the White House” and that he loves Joe Biden. When asked how Republican constituents might respond to his viewpoints, Titus said, “If they do [care], they can kiss the crack of my ass because I don’t care.” What’s worse is that most Congressmen in D.C. don’t actually think for themselves but rely on staffers like Titus and their advisors to guide them in decision-making. Or they rely on outside influences, such as blackmail, which uses their sexual wrongdoings while “serving” the American people. Titus was able to provide us with good intel on the inner workings of Congress and how members of both parties are coerced to vote a certain way through what he called a vote “suggestion.” But these so-called suggestions aren’t suggestions at all; they are much more nefarious ways of blackmailing members of Congress who have engaged in affairs on their spouses or downright sex parties with other members, according to Titus. “There’s a lot of things that I see with my own eyes,” he told James O’Keefe. “Madison Cawthorn wasn’t lying neither,” said Titus as he explained that most Congress Members are married, but “they have affairs with other congresspeople… And they have like parties and stuff.” Titus then confirmed that these alleged parties get “hot and heavy.” Though he said he’s never gone to one of these parties or been invited, Titus contends “that is a fact” and an open secret. “It happens a lot more than people think,” he noted before telling us that he thought it was a fiction or a “joke” before he began working in Congress. “A majority of members that come late are 9/10 times hungover from the [sex parties] the night before,” Titus added. These parties are then used to gain leverage over the officials to pressure them to vote for the Swamp’s preferred policy and against unfavorable policy. But this leverage is not only used to change votes in Congress. It seemingly applies to election season, too, as Titus explains, “If you ever run for office, and you’ve been where I am, you would use that as leverage to win your campaign.” As reported by The Gateway Pundit, Madison Cawthorn revealed in March 2022 that he was invited to a “sexual get-together” or an “orgy” at a D.C. elite’s home. He also alleged that “some of the people leading on the movement to try and remove addiction in our country” were often doing cocaine right in front of him. This caused a stir within the House of Representatives. Cawthorn was then smeared as a liar, threatened with consequences by then-Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, and removed from Congress in the next election. We reached out to Madison Cawthorn for his reaction to Titus’ bombshell assertions: CAWTHORN: “Well, I mean, I’ve never been to a party like this; I got invited to them. My instant reaction to that is, you know, especially the blackmail piece that it seemed like this individual was talking about in this piece, that’s something that I experienced firsthand. It’s kind of a laden threat. It’s kind of just an understood thing in Washington. It’s not something that’s ever really said to you, but it’s well known that people can always have leverage points on you.” “People only want to put you in compromising situations so that they can have leverage over you so they can control your vote.” Titus said the media either does not know about this blackmail scheme or “they’re not allowed to run these stories.” It would seem more likely the latter. Titus further related this sexual conduct in Congress to former Democrat Staffer Aidan Maese-Czeropski, who was terminated by Senator Ben Cardin (D-MD) after the staffer’s hardcore gay sex tape filmed in the Hart Senate Office Building surfaced. “That actually did not happen the day it came out,” said Titus, indicating that the sex tape was filmed months earlier and used as leverage against Senator Cardin or Aidan Maese-Czeropski. When asked if he feels guilty about what he sees in Congress or being a secret Democrat working in a Republican office, Titus responded, “I get my check, and I’m good,” while stipulating his lust for buying expensive items such as Louis Vuitton handbags and fashion accessories from other high-end stores like Chanel. “All my money that I’m saving now is for me to go to the Hamptons every weekend of the Summer.” While shopping at Burberry and David Yurman, two high-end fashion stores in Washington, D.C., Titus told us more about the D.C. sex parties, saying, “It’s not a conspiracy.” He continued, “It most definitely happens. And It’s normal.” Surprisingly, when asked outside of the jewelry store, David Yurman, Titus did not recognize James O’Keefe or realize that everything he told us was being recorded.

Caleb Banks, DT, Florida Age: 23.1 Height: 6'6" Weight: 335 lbs Arms: 35" Current Consensus Rank: 24th 🟨 Market Share Adjusted Production: 67th percentile 34 Games 929 Career Snaps 60 Career Pressures 7 Sacks 48 Tackles 10.5 Tackles For Loss 1 batted pass 4 penalties 🟧 Career PFF Grade: 47th Percentile 🟩 Career PFF Pass Rush Grade: 77th Percentile 10.6% Career Pass Rush Win Rate 10.7% PRWR Last 2 Seasons 🟩 Win Rate: 83rd Percentile 🟨 Career Pass Rush Grade on True Pass Sets: 66th Percentile 18.0% Career Win Rate on TPS 17.7% PRWR on TPS Last 2 Seasons 🟦 True Pass Set Win Rate: 88th Percentile 🟥 PFF Career Run Defense Grade: 25th Percentile 🟥 3.2% Career Run Stop Rate: 1st Percentile 🚩 🟥 25.5% Missed Tackle Rate: 0.7 percentile 🟥 PFF Tackling Grade: 4th Percentile 🟥 Tackles For Losses: 8th Percentile Player Analysis: Caleb Banks has flashes of a super star. He can move laterally and jump a gap at the snap in a blink or he can bull rush right through blockers with ease. The high-end plays are truly incredible. Rare to see a player of that size move so fluidly and then come back with the raw power he possesses on the next play. The flashes are what will sell teams, but Banks has a ways to go before he's that player on a consistent basis. Too often, Banks plays with poor leverage and conditioning (foot injury and weight played a factor). When he's playing too tall, his get-off and power are robbed. Then you've got inconsistent hand usage. He will swing wildly and hit nothing. Leaving his chest open and making himself easy to block. The combination of inconsistent pad level and hand usage leads to having trouble against double teams as he can be displaced and moved down the line. Banks' profile shows pass rush upside with inconsistent run defense and one of the worst tacklers we've ever seen. Banks leaves his feet and lunges or will completely stop his feet and reach for the ball carrier (around the shoulders) and both lead to big missed tackles. These misses have severely affected his overall production. Banks has never played more than 422 snaps in a season and if he's going to become a full time starter in the NFL, he's going to need to stay healthy and improve at the little things. He's a 'Home Run or Strikeout' player right now and at age 23 on Draft Night, he's one of only 4 players in the current consensus top 32 that'll be over that mark. If he pans out, it'll be easy to see why. If his highlights were the whole story, Banks would be a top 12 lock. Instead, you have to wonder if he'll ever reach those heights.

I watched every SEC Football Media Day press conference so you don’t have to. Here’s the best answer from every head coach: -- LSU Coach Lane Kiffin on why personal growth often comes from subtracting, not constantly adding: “If you really want to keep growing, a lot of people add things as they go versus subtracting things that are issues.” “Once you remove something from your life, you start to realize how many other people are addicted to it or need it.” “To be free of that has been interesting because you don’t compare.” “Social media… makes you compare your job, the city you live in, your vacation, your kids, your clothes, your car, your significant other.” “When you don’t see that all day, you’re free of that comparison.” “It’s been a way of being more present.” — Georgia Coach Kirby Smart explains how leaders should operate when their industry is changing rapidly: “What wins football games has not changed. Each coach has to decide within their own program what they want to major in.” You’ve got to be able to wear multiple hats. But you’ve got to choose which hats you want to wear the best.” “I’m not afraid to change what we need to change to be successful. I don’t have an ego that says you have to do it my way. I want to hear how you want to do it, and let’s find the best way.” — Oklahoma Coach Brent Venables on the player who asked for more money before he had earned a role, and how he responded: “Why don’t you worry about playing first before we worry about incentives?” — Kentucky Coach Will Stein on why he believes Kentucky can overcome its history and win at a championship level: “I think because of me, to be honest.” “I know what it takes. I’ve seen it at the highest levels. You’ve just got to believe. You’ve just got to put the ball down and play.” “The best determination of whether what you’re doing is working is putting the ball down and playing football.” “There are going to be bumps in the road. I’m prepared for tough moments and tough times. I already do self-talk with myself: ‘How can I stay neutral when stuff’s bad?’” “You’ve got to go attack. You can’t sit back and wait.That’s one thing I refuse to do at Kentucky—wait.” — Missouri Coach Eli Drinkwitz explains what Ahmad Hardy’s recovery taught him about the real purpose of coaching: “There was that moment where he realized he was mortal. I’ve been very proud of the way he’s approached his recovery and his rehab. His number one responsibility is to be a father, and then after that, to continue to be a great teammate.” “That’s exactly what coaching is all about. It’s about taking young men on a journey from 18 to maturity—and it’s a lifelong process.” “Regardless of how much the business changes or is disrupted, it’s still about helping players achieve their dreams.” “When Ahmad scores his first touchdown this year, I’ll be thinking about that journey from hospital bed to end zone.” — South Carolina Coach Shane Beamer takes complete ownership of South Carolina’s disappointing season and explains how adversity revealed the strength of the program’s culture: “There was no ceiling on the football program at South Carolina, and nothing has changed. We fell woefully short, and that’s on me. We don’t seek comfort from how close we were.” — Vanderbilt Coach Clark Lea on Vanderbilt’s disastrous 2023 season and explains how it became the turning point that eventually led to a 10-win season: “That’s called getting your ass kicked.” “It may have been the most important thing that’s ever happened to me as a head coach and to the program.” “The vision never left us.” “In 15 years, when I look back on this moment, what am I learning right now—not what am I feeling right now?” — Tennessee Coach Josh Heupel explains how to develop an inexperienced quarterback without coaching away what makes him special: “The players have to go learn it, earn it, and compete for it every single day.” “Each one of them is a little bit different. They’re the artist. You’ve got to hand them the paintbrush and let them go paint it.” — Florida Coach John Sumrall explains the attitude he wants to establish at Florida: “I may have some bad moments. I don’t have bad days.” “Attitude is demeanor, drive and desire. Demeanor is your body language. Your drive and desire is the mindset that you’ve never arrived, you can always get better.” — Texas A&M Coach Mike Elko on how he prevents complacency after a playoff appearance: “I show them our trophy case, and it’s empty.” — Ole Miss Coach Pete Golding explains how he defines an elite program beyond wins and football performance: “Elite programs aren’t designed for when they’ve got cleats on. Elite programs are designed for when they take them cleats off.” “Are they a better dude? Are they a better husband? Are they a better father?” — Auburn Coach Alex Golesh explains where real confidence comes from: “Real confidence, not fake confidence, but real, authentic, genuine confidence, comes from elite-level process day in and day out.” — Arkansas Coach Ryan Silverfield explains why rebuilding Arkansas required examining every detail: “The night I got there… I said, ‘We need to fix the light bulbs.’ How you do anything is how you do everything.” “People now are starting to catch on: this is how we need to do this. We need to be better here. We need to support this more.” — Mississippi State Coach Jeff Lebby explains why the next step for a talented young quarterback is not always making more plays—it is learning which plays not to make: “I don’t necessarily put a ceiling on K1. The way he goes about his business on the day-to-day to prepare himself to have success between the white lines—it’s elite.” — Alabama Coach Kalen DeBoer explains why reputation, returning talent and last year’s progress mean nothing until the new team proves it again: “That’s okay, because we’ve got to go prove it. It doesn’t matter how many guys you return.” “Until we prove it, we understand there’s going to be doubt.” — Texas Coach Steve Sarkisian explains how Arch Manning handled being hyped by outsiders, blamed when their predictions failed, and refused to respond publicly: “Arch Manning wasn’t on social media or television saying, ‘I’m going to be the first pick of the draft.’ All he did was work really hard.” “Then those same people wanted to criticize and demean him almost for letting them down because he didn’t live up to what they thought he was going to be.” “What he got put through probably would have melted or destroyed 99% of people in his shoes.” “All he did was stay consistent and true to who he was. He didn’t go back on social media and say, ‘I told you so.’” “I think right now he’s a very dangerous player because he learned a lot from last season.”

Hexagons and Octagons Those who follow football and coaching will be well aware that there are trends that emerge and become the great break through in coaching, only to vanish quite quickly. A few stick around and become a staple. Such as the rondo, or the 4v4+4 Guardiola rondo variation. One that did not stick around in the coaching collective consciousness that possible should have was Thomas Tuchel’s use of hexagonal and octagonal playing areas in training sessions. Tuchel explained that cutting off the corners and angling the pitch forced “sharp diagonal” passes that would help break the press. The positioning of players outside the hexagon/octagon or players close to the edges will be manipulated into an open body shape by the angles of the pitch. Players are impacted by environmental constraints and embodied cognition, where the geography of the playing area influences their actions. This influence spreads to the creation of triangles and diamonds within the playing area due to the “funnel” like nature of the playing area. We can use the cut outside angles by placing bounce or target players on the exterior, influencing the movement and organisation internally. The inside players will not have to move wide as those areas are occupied. The internal players will seek to create passing angles using the positioning of the outside players and their internal team mates. The diamonds and triangles will appear. If we leave the spaces on the outside empty players can move to fill the spaces. These act as free spaces to receive from the goalkeeper or open spaces for attackers to overlap into, encouraging attacking combination play and crosses. A different way of using the space is to remove goals and goalkeepers from the ends and place bounce/target players on the outside. Players now can combine with the outside players, when they do so they are then free to finish into the outside goals. The condition can be extended to combining with the target player in the opposite side of the pitch before scoring, adding an element of switching play. The hexagon and octagon are versatile spaces that help to replicate aspects of the game. By funneling the spaces we impact players body shape, ability to play forward quickly, team shape (or small group shapes), players cutting in, defending centrally, the types of combination used and the angles of line breaking pass (diagonals). The angles are hugely significant for teams that value combinations and possession football, Straight passes and receiving angles are much easier to intercept and carry high risks for being counter attacked. Short diagonals can bypass players and attacking shapes, creating angled connections. If an angles pass is given away there is still a risk of being counter attacked but there is more chance of having players around the ball to regain possession. To counter press. The question that emerges is should we then be using hexagons and octagons more? If they are of greater benefit than squares and rectangles, why use them? Should all pitches, including those of a small sided nature be hexagonal? Can the rondo square be replaced by the rondo octagon?
