Curious what coaches do when changing jobs?



Within the Coaching profession, depends on when a Coach loses his job. Now, you can be hired as an Analyst, allowing you to get on with another college.

Years ago, when a college coaches get fired from a job, they attend the coaches convention. I tell folks all the time, football coaches are a tight fraternity. One month you are trying to sign the same player for your respective schools. The next season, you maybe coaching on the same team. Never burn bridges.

Some schools will stop pay, some will continue to pay. So many now have agents representing.

Back in the early 90’s a friend got fired as an assistant. The A/D asked him to continue recruiting for the school, until the new coach would interview, a chance at getting hired. Some new HC’s clean house. That AD continued to pay my friend even after he got a job, for a full year.

It’s fun to sit down with coaches and hear stories, a former DC at LSU, his brother knew stories and where the bodies were buried.

A few I know, might lose a college job, let out a the word, get on with a high school job. In Texas once vested, you have a good retirement. An easy way to fall back.
The transformation of Trinidad, this was all Weis and Lane.

Remember when the short guy had Blitz packages named after US States? Then he ran out of states.

Much of the same with this season’s offense. Running the same play out of 6-8 different formations. Knowing what play to call, at the right time. Cant get here soon enough!

Many OC’s and DC’s, can find Waldo. That weakness. A DB goes down, you pick on his replacement.

In 2003, UGA came into Tiger Stadium. The QB Greene goes down, in comes D.J. Shockley, what did we do, sent the house. D. J. went back to pass twice, 0 completions, -20 yards. During a 13 yard loss, an intentional grounding was called on D.J. the QB. That was your Waldo.
