Nice article regarding CGM's playbook


Sid

Recommended Posts

Despite falling short in the national championship game earlier this month, most of the buzz online seems focused on Gus Malzahn and his offensive philosophy. Up until this point, there was not much you could do to get any inside information on how he thinks and what his terminology is, short of either buying his book (which is excellent) or going down to visit him at Auburn (in which case you’d better get in line). However, I’ve got the next best thing. Thanks to some film trading friends of mine, I’ve got some great stuff from when Malzahn was at Tulsa. The head coach at Auburn has evolved a bit since those days, mostly to fit the personnel he has, but the core principles remain the same.

Interesting piece but my primary question is:

How can kids who can barely qualify to get into a college remember all that stuff? :dunno:

Because sometimes these kids are not as stupid as their grades or school performance indicates. Put something they want to learn, like a football playbook, in front of them and they excel.

Looking back on my own life and career, I'm convinced that a good teacher can teach his subject to anyone willing to learn. (Me being an example of someone a good teacher could teach.) And Malzahn is a good teacher.

From the first time I was aware of him I thought he struck me as an almost stereotypical college teacher, not a typical football coach. A good teacher does not think what he's teaching is all that complicated. To him it's simple, and he can convey his logic to students who may not be considered the brightest bulbs in the box.
