(S28) PT 4 - Back to School

[Amulos]

You have been contacted by your old high school, who have just had their head coach resign. They have asked you to come back and coach a game for their football team, while they look for a new coach. What ends up happening during the game? How are you able to inspire the players? Do you end up taking a permanent job at the school?

Obviously, I help them out for sure. This team is what got me into Purdue, and I poured my heart and soul into the game for them and would be willing to do it again. I think I would definitely be able to help them out, my experience in the DSFL has given me a ton to work with and I had the opportunity to work with a lot of great coaches throughout my time in High school, college and the pro level that I could lean on. I think the first thing I'd do is check what areas the team excels at so that we can lean on it more heavily come game time. In high school, I am guessing that will be the run game. Running QB, alongside a good RB and running a lot of gadget plays to take advantage of poor communication. I think being able to bring in the plethora of plays I've witnessed and been a part of could really revamp the offense for sure. As far as taking on a permanent role, I doubt I would be able to until after my pro career is done. There just isn't enough time during the season to carver that out. BUT... after making the hall of fame in the ISFL, I think it would be pretty neat to do so as a coach too...
