re: Nerves as a Coach

There is a video on Youtube by Cary Kolat about his philosophy on coaching. It really changed the way I coached. He said he started coaching improvement, not wins and loses. He is a college coach and was a very successful wrestler in college and afterwards. His thought was if a kid beat one of his kids 10-0 one time and the next time his kid lost 6-4, his kid improved. Eventually the wins and loses took care of themselves.

I try to coach in this same line of thought. We used to run a single safety but now that teams can throw better we had to switch to 2 safeties. The kid that got moved to the second safety went from never going after a ball or WR to last week he tried to jump a route and mistimed it so the guy caught it. I was over the moon that he tried to jump the route. I couldn't care less that he missed. The fact that he knew his job was to get in the way of that pass and he tried to do it was amazing to me. Next time I feel confident he's gonna know that ball down if not intercept it.
