I am looking in to coaching for fun and this is a great book to have. There is a lot of coaching information and great football information in general.
Rating: 5 / 5
A great read for assistants or head coaches. Offers an awesome foundation for any coach.
Rating: 5 / 5
This is a solid text covering various topics on football. This is a book that every football coach should pick up. I like the idea of being taught basic concepts by some of the best coaches at the college level.
Rating: 5 / 5
I’m probably like most who pick up this book in that I was looking into coaching for fun. My sons are going out for football and the team needs a coaching assistance. I thought maybe it was for me and I wanted to get more information. This is a good general reference but it it is important to point out each chapter is written by a different coach. This can be a good thing or bad thing depending on what you’re looking for. For me I liked the different perspectives but the book as a whole wasn’t as cohesive as it could have been. Good for begining coaches I think as well as coaches with some experience.
Rating: 4 / 5
Some good info in this book, however each chapter is written from one coach’s perspective (passing game, rush “D”, etc….) I would have liked more info on each area of the game rather than a detailed perspective of one.
