Coach Talk

Don't Kupp my Murray Chase Edm
Innovative play design and countless hours in the film room. Blood, sweat, and tears on the practice field. 11 guys in the huddle, all on the same page. Each and every route, every single pass, planned meticulously and executed deliberately. The outcome? A spectacular 29 completions on 36 attempts: good enough for a completion percentage of 81 percent for Kyler Murray this past week. That Vikings secondary didn't know what hit 'em!.
StillBetterThanKalab
Take my word for it (as a coach who's practically never NOT been on the hot seat)... You can take comfort knowing that there's always that scrappy Assistant Coaching job open at the nearby high school down the road! Keep your head up, StillBetterThanKalab!
