Coach Matt Miers of Central City Iowa joins me on the podcast to talk 8 man football. Coach talks about how he instills values and builds his team's culture by being authentic. He also gets into the X's and O's of his single wing unbalanced power football play along with the counter and play action passes off of it. Coach Miers has been doing this for a while and through character building he is building a great program.

Coach Cooper talks about the Double Wing in 8 man football. He discusses their transition to 8 man football and what the Michigan 8 man football league is like. 

Welcome back to Season 2 of the Be Gr8 Podcast.  We catch up a little bit and talk about some things I learned from the first season from a handful of coaches. 

Coach Stuckey talks to us about a great approach to scout team offense and how he coaches as a one man staff. 

In this solo episode I talk about how we've practiced the last few years.  I also share with you the plans from a coach that follows the TFC and sprint based football principles.  Practice starts in less than a month!  You will pick something up that will be helpful for sure. ​

Today I talk about the book, Winning, The Unforgiving Race To Greatness by Tim S. Grover.  I share my ideas on some of the principles in that book.  We talk about how daily disciplines help you win.  What my opinion of a Coach and Life balance looks like and how it can't be 50/50.  I also talk about how the power of the word NO can help you out and what it looks like as a player that is obsessed with chasing greatness.
