2011 Logan Football

[moonshine]

Any updates on numbers and conditioning so far?

[Binary]

Should see a major improvement from last year or a new coach we be in the near future.

Run Baby Run!

[dazed&confused]

Somewhere out there the next great Logan team is taking shape. It will come from kids who develop a close bond early in their football lives and realize hard work and determination are what it takes to succeed. Sometimes I think underclassmen who are exposed to great successes by their predecessors lose sight of what it took to achieve that success.

I think fans, and especially assisstant coaches lose sight of what it takes to be a great head coach who can lead a team to great succss. Being a successful head coach involves much more than calling plays.

It takes 2-3 years to establish your program! at Logan we have talent and the staff just needs to understand how to coach to the talent. This year we should be a strong ground team but we need to also work hard on the passing game, I believe we should look at a mix of 65% run and 35% pass, push a phyical and strong defense and develop an outstanding special team with very few mistakes. We must limit the trunovers!

Good points shine. I like how you think. Are you on the staff? If not, you should be. If you are, you should try to get them to hire Koondogger as a consultant. Many folks forget he was undefeated as a jr high football coach several seasons during his 18 years at the helm. If you think he coaches basketball well, you should see him strolling the sidelines of the gridiron.

havent heard much. alot of them have been hitting the wieght room hard core i was told. but the run game is a big factor in getting w's this fall. hope the coach brings it back. tighten up the defense too. amyx always had a stout defense. who is the defensive coordinator now? anybody know?

[C-Bolt]

Trenchfoot I heard they was taking the whole summer off,,,last year they didn't get started till sometime in July,,,Wolfe said in his first interview June was family month,get away from football and go on vacations and stuff,,,They'll git er going in July don't worry

where are they lifting then? at home? i heard from a good source some of those guys are getting strong and bulked up. some benching over 300 lbs. i dont know for sure but thats a good thing if its true. wow. not starting till july. these other schools i bet are getting ready probably months ago per weight lifting.

Wow what a mistake taking June off, maybe the frist 2 weeks, but the entire month. This is the time of the year that winners are developed, bonding takes place, you dont have to be a slave driver! We always conditioned as allowed every opportunity OHSAA permitted. Remenber LIFT RUN and SWIM. Logan's moto this year should be BACK TO BASICS!

They taking June off

[moonshine]

they not taking june off! i have seen players in the weight room working out when my son has bball practice.

Thanks for clearing this up, I might check out the lifting program, again thanks1

The coach has probably left it up to the player for June.

It sort of lets them know certain things.

Who is guiding and supervising the players, wow I hope it is not left it up to the players only, you need a motivator! Are we using what the rules allows us to do as far as lifting and conditioning?

yep they need a motivator in the weight room.

And something else to consider,its not just football some of the players think about in June especially the skill players if they are indeed engaged in schools sports and not doing family stuff,they got all these other camps going on ie Basketball,Baseball, Track,Wrestling, Tennis so football is probably on the backburner until at least July,I agree you need a motivator if they're going to lift,too easy to sandbag and horse around just doing it on their own....

C-Bolt, I agree with almost all of your post, but most of the line and some skill position players are still free to particpate most of the time. We had a MOTIVATOR, and back in the day the MOTIVATOR was very demanding enough said! Come the 1st of July it will be to late to push the kids! Logan Football is BACK to the BASICS!

Coach Coates remembers being run out of town, look out they will try to run the score up!, He put a beating on ironton last year at the tank.
