hornets scrimmage is this Friday @ 6pm. Hornet Stadium. I watched most of it… my kid got asked to join the game as a kicker (plucked him from the jv soccer team). Offensively, things looks polished already. FB will score 40+ per game this season. Defensively, FB looks bad. That was not the typical FB defense I’m used to seeing in the fall. If they don’t get better, substantially better… lots of teams will score 30+ on them.

They will be fine I'm sure come fall.

The previous DC is now the HC. I'm not surprised the offense looks game ready. They should with three year starter seniors returning as the nucleus. The defense will be fine they have the athletes and the coaching. That offense is going to make a lot of defenses look bad.

Regardless it won't be a defense he doesn't approve of like a completely different scheme he's not familiar with or seen before.

He may approve of it but it could be new to the kids. That was the case at a few schools I was at early on where the DC became HC and he either promoted or hired a DC. They approved the defenses but they were new to the kids or some of the terms were new to the kids so it took a bit to get the kids to understand the few changes. I wasn't attacking the hornets, I was defending them. I have seen changes like that exact thing, and by the time games count the kids have everything figured out, and boom off like a rocket they go. Which I can see the hornets doing with their talent.

Went to the Carroll spring game. Defense looks good. They fly to the ball and have some height and athleticism in the backfield. Offense needs a lot of work. Running backs and o line are the strengths. They’re going to struggle if they don’t find a quarterback and receivers. When the quarterbacks were able to get the ball off the receivers were dropping balls.

When the quarterbacks were able to get the ball off the receivers were dropping balls. If you can't throw or catch in the spread, run the daggum ball. Build an offensive scheme that makes the kids successful. If you got runners, keep it on the ground. Mix in some short passes like screens and dumps. Don't use the spread except to deceive the defense and motion jet sweeps. Toss it forward on those and your QB has pass attempts and completions that way and your backs get catches and 1 or 2 slot guys too. But forget the long ball.
