Personal Philosophy:
“… I am constantly looking for ways to improve myself as a coach.
I expect my assistants to do the same.
Play an active roll in the shape of the team… We are here to make
these kids better ball players than they were at the start of the
season.
It is MY program. But it is OUR season. I gladly welcome and
strongly encourage constructive input and recommendations. I
would only ask that you respect and support my final decision on
an issue whether you agree with it or not…”

Avengers Football Philosophy:
•
Each season, my staff and I try to produce well-rounded players. We do
our best to put our players in a position to be successful. Avengers
Football is hard hitting, and aggressive on both sides of the ball. My
players don't do things in a game just because we "tell" them to. They
understand WHY they are supposed to them. I don't want robots. We
want them to think on their feet in during the game. They can't achieve
that without proper preparation.
Alignments:
1. Line Splits: Foot-to-Foot
- 1 yard between TE & Guard
- SE 2-4 yards (Nasty split)
2. Backs
3. Mesh point directly behind 2-Back

Mesh Point Concept
With thanks to Coach Strauss
1. Consistent exchange
point for backs.
2. Best location to conceal
exchange from
linebackers.
