With the information coming out this next week about our off season QB program I thought it would be appropriate to post this article. I got to know Butch when I coached at Santa Clara as we where is the same league but different divisions. He is a great coach and we have alot of similarity. He is the only other head football coach I know who teaches AP mathematics and we have similar dispositions. He also gave me some of the best football coaching advice when he said "Be positive after a loss and knock them down a peg when they win." By no means would I say we are friends but I respect him as much as any coach I have met. I was fortunate to play his Los Gatos teams once in the playoffs in a game for the ages .
To the article I think the three important points made in the article are this. First QB can be developed. Los Gatos has done a good job of showing that. 2nd in order to develop a great QB you need to work mechanics as coaches QB's do with Roger Theder and 3rd you need to work reads and football knowledge as Coach Cattolico does with his QB's. Developing QB's is a two prong process with mechanics in the early spring February, March, April followed by reads and live action such as 7 on 7 in May, June, July. Finally you add August and pads and learn how to do with a rush and you have a good QB.
As we lay out our QB Development program this coming week I think you will see this process on display.
