On The Coaching 101 Podcast, hosts Daniel Chamberlain and Coach Kenny Simpson discuss clinic season in Houston and Daniel’s new head coaching job, then share a quote: “The best competitors have a short memory and have a long focus,” emphasizing competing without fear of failure. They highlight sponsors and Kenny’s resources, then dive into teaching high school players concepts rather than memorized plays by starting with the big picture, using rules-based “families,” layering installs, and keeping language modular and consistent to avoid “wasted words.” They explain using formations, tags, and simple blitz/coverage rules to appear complex to opponents while staying simple for players, plus crawl-walk-run and pressure-testing in practice. They close with a game-management scenario on when to sub up 28 and the risks of doing it too early.00:00 Clinic Season Check In00:59 New Head Coach Buzz02:44 Honeymoon Phase Advice04:48 Quote of the Week06:25 Sponsor Shoutouts08:57 Teaching Concepts Not Plays13:43 Rules Based Offense Defense16:15 Families and Simple Rules19:52 Consistent Language and Tags24:30 Defensive Word Examples25:55 Sticks Tag Cover Three26:59 No Wasted Words30:37 Rules Over Memorization31:43 Making It Work Fridays37:59 Install Crawl Walk Run41:05 Situation Of The Week46:44 Sponsors Books Clinics50:46 Final Sign OffDaniel Chamberlain: @CoachChamboOK [email protected] chamberlainfootballconsulting.com Kenny Simpson: @FBCoachSimpson [email protected] FBCoachSimpson.com
