PSCoach Shaffer

Fellas — clio cutups are up in hudl. 3 games. Watch the second half of the corunna one, that's their new coordinator's stuff

PSCoach Shaffer

They are a 2 high team now. That is new. Last year they were single high 80% of the time

yeah i watched it sunday

they're 2 high but the boundary safety cheats down hard on any 3x1. every time. i counted 14 snaps

if we get into trips to the field the backside is genuinely just 1 on 1 with no help and their field corner is like 5'8

PSCoach Shaffer

14 out of how many

17. the other 3 were 3rd and long

PSCoach Shaffer

Ok. I'm going to check that tonight and if you're right we're going to have a good friday

Ben

he's right. i watched it too. he's right

PSCoach Shaffer

Ben you're supposed to be watching their offense

Ben

i watched both

PSCoach Shaffer

Good man

Josh Czarnota

what's 3x1 again

3 receivers one side 1 the other. i'll show you at walkthrough cal it's easier with a whiteboard

Josh Czarnota

ok thanks

Ben

did you read the fentonian thing

yeah

did hudson tell you he was gonna use the senior year line

no. i didn't know about it until i read it

Read 5:14 PM

ok

i'm not mad at you

you can be a little mad at me

i'm not. i said it. he printed it. that's how it works

i just didn't want it to be a THING. now three people have texted me being like "you good bro"

i'm sorry

stop apologizing. seriously. you've been apologizing to me for a year and a half and it's honestly worse than if you just didn't

Four minutes.

ok

you had four picks last year and i think you're the best safety in this league and i'm not saying that to be nice, i'm saying it because it's on the film

ok that's better

say that instead

👍

hey on the switch release vs their field corner — he's got a really bad habit of opening his hips at like 5 yards on anything with a hard outside stem

if you sell outside for 2 steps he's done. he can't recover. he's not fast enough

i clipped 6 of them

HUDL — 6 clips

Delivered 8:55 PM

Two hours, eleven minutes.

bro it's 11pm

i know. watch it tomorrow

i already watched it

the 4th one he's literally facing the sideline before the guy even breaks

RIGHT

ok yeah i'm eating friday

you're still weird as hell for making a playlist at 9pm on a thursday tho

ok

i'm saying thank you. that's what that was

i genuinely couldn't tell

yeah i know. i'm working on it

who do i need to email

what

give me the emails. the college ones. i'll send em. i'll send em from my account so it's not you

troy no

why not

because you would write something insane and it would have my name on it

i would write something PASSIONATE

that's what i said

Ha ha

ok but real talk. if some school out here is sleeping on you that's on them and i'm not gonna sit here and be normal about it

you're my LITTLE COUSIN. i've known you since you were 4 and you were scared of the vacuum

Hey bud. Wanted to say something before you heard it from somebody else

Pearce asked me on camera if college coaches were going to figure out how good you are and I said nobody's called. I said it plain. That's going to play in every homeroom tomorrow morning

I don't regret saying it. But I should have told you first and I didn't and that's my fault

Read 6:31 PM

it's ok coach

it's true. i'd rather people know the actual thing than the made up version

That's a more grown up answer than I had at 17

For what it's worth I have sent film to 6 people I know. Two D2 guys, a guy at Wayne State, a buddy who coaches at Alma, and two others. Nothing back yet. I'm going to keep doing it

i didn't know you were doing that

Well I am

Now go eat something and be at walkthrough at 3:15

yes sir

And Nick — friday, first time you get hit, you're going to want to prove something on the very next snap. Don't. Just run the play

Nine minutes.

ok

i was 100% going to do that

I know you were

Coach Setzke

Mansour. 6:45 tomorrow morning, my office. Bring your clio notes.

yes sir. do you want the protection stuff or just the coverage stuff

Both.

Friday, Aug 21 · 7:31 AM

Coach Setzke

Good work in there.

thanks coach

on the slide check — if they walk the nickel down late can i get it on my own or do you want it from the sideline

Delivered 7:33 AM

Six hours, forty minutes.

Coach Setzke

From the sideline.

ok

Troy added Nick to the conversation.

KLKobe

why is the qb in the ol chat

Troy

because he asked to be

KLKobe

why did he ASK to be

because if i can hear you guys talk about the protection during the week i'll stop calling stuff that makes your life impossible

DADevon

ok that's actually sick

KLKobe

fine. but you don't get to see the other stuff

what other stuff

KLKobe

the other stuff

Wednesday, Aug 19 · 9:22 PM

WKWyatt Kroll

on the 3 tech side when they walk the backer up do i still go to him or do i stay

Troy

stay

KLKobe

no go to him

Troy

kobe he's the CENTER

KLKobe

i know what he is

wyatt — you stay. you're my anchor point. if i slide you the whole thing moves and i've got nobody to set the front off of

if the backer actually comes that's my problem, not yours. i'll get rid of it. you just don't move

WKWyatt Kroll

ok

WKWyatt Kroll

thank you

Troy

SEE. that's why he's in the chat

KLKobe

yeah alright

RTReed

did everyone see the fentonian. nine sacks in nine games and they put it on page 2

DADevon

PAGE TWO

Troy

we should be the front page every year and instead we're a bullet point under "things that are not nick mansour"

i genuinely agree with you

Troy

i know you do that's why it's not a fight

KLKobe

nobody's ever gonna write about us. that's the job. you sign up for it in like 8th grade

RTReed

that's bleak kobe

KLKobe

it's not bleak it's just true. i don't need an article. i need the kid to not get hit

♥ Loved "i don't need an article. i need the kid to not get hit"

clio splits their safeties but the boundary guy cheats down every time we go trips to the field. i put 14 clips in a playlist

HUDL — 14 clips

hudl.com/v/…"CLIO — boundary safety trigger"

Brendan

14 clips is a lot of clips

it's 4 minutes brendan

Brendan

i'll do 4 minutes

Kevin

so what does that mean for me

it means when we're trips and you're the backside X you are ALONE. no safety. their field corner is 5'8 and he opens his hips early

Kevin

👀

Kevin

so throw me the ball is what you're saying

i'm saying if they do it, yes

Kevin

that's what i said

ZWZach

what about the field side

that's you. if the hook player turns and runs with the #2 then the seam's capped and i'm coming off it. if he stays square you're getting the ball on your 3rd step whether you're looking or not

ZWZach

"whether you're looking or not" is stressful

be looking

SKShane

where do i fit into this

shane you get every carry inside the 5 like always

SKShane

🫡

PCPeyton

what about me haha

you're blocking their 245 lb end on 70% of these snaps and if you do it i can hold the ball an extra half second, which is the entire game

PCPeyton

oh

PCPeyton

ok

PCPeyton

🙏

ABAaron

👍

Matt B

i watched all 14. the 9th one he's already flat footed before the ball's snapped

matt that's the best one and nobody else noticed it

Brendan

i noticed it

you did not watch them

Brendan

i did not watch them

This is the entire exchange most mornings. It has been since June 8.

Tuesday, Aug 25 · 7:10 AM

hey. serious for a sec

friday. first time you get hit in 10 months. i know you're thinking about it

a little

don't

i've been on your left side for a year and a half and you have been hit clean from my side one time and i still think about that one

the flushing one

it's not happening again

i appreciate that man

i'm not being nice. i'm telling you the situation

Two minutes.

also ben's my best friend and last year i wasn't sure about you

i'm sure now. that's all i'm saying about it

ok

that means a lot

don't make it weird. 6am tomorrow

Thursday, Aug 20 · 10:41 PM

hey did you actually say that on tiger tv or did someone tell me wrong

say what

that i'm the biggest difference in the offense

yeah i said that

Read 10:43 PM

Nine minutes.

why

because it's true?

i had 22 catches

you had 22 catches on 31 targets in a rotation as a sophomore, and 4 of the 9 incompletions were my fault

you're 6'3 and you ran a 4.6 in our own testing which is the only verified number anybody on this offense has

every corner in this league is 5'9 and they're going to keep putting them on you because that's who they have

huh

nobody's ever said anything like that to me

that's kind of insane, everybody on the staff thinks it

then why doesn't anybody SAY it

Four minutes.

i don't know man. i think people assume you already know

you should know. you're the best physical player on this offense and i'm including kevin in that and don't tell kevin i said that

i'm screenshotting this

zach

i'm not sending it to him. i'm just keeping it

♥ Loved "i'm just keeping it"

The day after the competition ended.

hey. congrats. you earned it obviously

i'm not gonna be weird about it

you were really good out there man. i'm not saying that to be nice

i went 2 for 9 in the team period on thursday

you went 2 for 9 in a period where coach called four things you'd never repped, on purpose, to see what you'd do

that's not a throwing test. that's a "does this kid panic" test

did i pass

Read 6:11 PM

yeah

you didn't throw it away once. that's actually the problem, but it's a way better problem than the other one

what's the other one

guys who throw it away on 2nd and 4 because they're scared. you can't fix that. you can fix "throws it away too little"

huh

nobody explained any of that to me. coach just said "good work josh" and walked off

yeah that's setzke. he's not gonna explain it. that's shaffer's job and shaffer had 40 other things

Monday, Aug 17 · 3:44 PM

can i ask you stuff at practice or is that annoying

ask me stuff at practice

like between reps?

between reps, at lunch, at 11pm, whenever. genuinely

ok

why do you point at the mike before every snap. like what does that DO. i've been doing it because you do it and i don't know why

ok so that's the single most important thing i do and nobody teaches it to sophomores

the whole protection is built off one guy. i pick him. once i point at him, all five linemen and the back know who they're counting from — everybody blocks off that number

if i point at the wrong guy the math is wrong and somebody comes free and it's my fault, not theirs

WAIT so it's not just yelling at a guy

it has never once been yelling at a guy

i have been pointing at the biggest linebacker for two weeks

😭

ok tomorrow before practice. 3:00. bring your call sheet, i'll do the whiteboard

for real?

josh you're gonna have this job in a year. i'd rather you have it and be good at it

♥ Loved "josh you're gonna have this job in a year. i'd rather you have it and be good at it"

Wednesday, Aug 26 · 9:12 PM

yo somebody on yik yak is saying i almost took your job and that setzke should've started me

that wasn't me. i swear on everything that wasn't me

i know it wasn't you

how do you know

because whoever wrote it thinks 8 periods with the ones is a big deal and you're the only person who knows it went to period 6 and then stopped

oh

damn

go to bed. you have a JV game tomorrow and you're gonna throw for 300

Delivered 11:41 PM

bro

it's brendan

i'm not guessing. he said the exact same thing to me in the parking lot on tuesday almost word for word. "we run one guy's offense now"

Read 11:52 PM

Nine minutes.

ok

ok?? that's it??

nick he's been on there for a week. he called you the clipboard kid

i know what it says. i read all of it

so do something

Six minutes.

what would you like me to do on wednesday night before week 1

if i say something it's a team problem on thursday. if i say nothing it's my problem and it stays mine

i need him friday. he's my best option on 3rd and 4 and he does every single thing i ask him to do on grass. that's true at the same time as the other thing

that's insane

you know that's insane right

yeah

Read 12:04 AM

for the record i'd have knocked his teeth out

i know. that's why i'm not telling anybody else

yo you got the orbit motion thing on the jet look

am i still going full speed thru or am i settling if the backer widens

full speed through. always. if he widens with you that's the whole point, that's what opens the a gap for shane

bet

yo also im gonna have like 8 catches friday

if they play us the way i think they will you might

LETS GO

🔥🔥🔥

Fifty minutes.

This is the entire thread. Nothing in it is unusual, which is the thing about it.
