Just finished up a pretty special year with my JV. Scored over 40 5 times, pitched 6 defensive shut outs (1 game we had defensive shut out but gave up a KO TD), played everyone 3 times.
I'm very proud of this season because our kids showed tremendous resilience week after week after week and just didn't care what happened, they took care of business.
Some things I learned along the way: 1 - It's REALLY nice to have a great QB. Ours was just dynamite for our Wing-T. He made the offense very dangerous. 2 - It's REALLY REALLY nice to have a great HB. Leading scorer, big play machine, devastating blocker, great teammate. 3 - When they can't score you can't lose. It kinda snuck up on me how good our defense was playing, but we really shut some people down. 4 - If you have the capability of putting in a 2 TE package in the Wing-T, you should really do it. We slowly built up more and more of a 32 personnel grouping until we could basically run our whole offense from it and the last two weeks in particular we were able to really create some problems for people. 5 - Enjoy the ride. I had a great time with a great group of kids. They were frustrating as all get out at times, but they're teenagers... comes with the territory.
I'm savoring this one because our freshmen just finished 3-7 and are REALLY addicted to the notion that injuries are cool...

We had the second best season in school history (lost to the two -time defending state champs in playoffs). The thing that surprised me was how much more stressed I was as we won more games. Anyone ever experience that?

Anyone ever experience that? I was increasingly nervous and anxious, but eventually I just started reminding myself that one of the main reasons we do this is to coach in important, meaningful games. That helped.
