When the Game Plan Goes Bad: In-Game Adjustments and If/Then Answers

Season 8 Episode 18 Published 1 month ago
Description

On The Coaching 101 Podcast, hosts Daniel Chamberlain and Kenny Simpson open with season updates as Simpson’s team finishes non-conference play at 2-1, discusses a loss to a fast Jacksonville team, the response with a 27-24 win over a top 3A opponent, and heading into a bye week, while Chamberlain shares his youth team’s strong start. After a Willie Nelson quote on counting blessings, they promote Simpson’s Field House coaching community and shout out sponsors Ace Sports and Winning Edge Performance Analytics. The main topic is what it means when a game plan isn’t working and how coaches should adjust without panicking or waiting too long, emphasizing execution vs misjudgment, avoiding emotional decisions, using box coaches and sideline systems for evidence, and building preplanned if/then adjustments, depth charts, staff autonomy, practice procedures, and “oh crap” call-sheet answers to handle opponents’ counters.
