Man. I didn't know he was a coach. Why isn't he in the NFL or even college. He's so knowledgeable.

If you still talk to him tell him I'm pulling for him. I really miss his posts.Dan still finds time to watch the Saints. Just about a year ago, shortly after accepting the job in Florence, he came on here and gave a detailed analysis of the Saints. It was a very good read. He was last on the site in September of this year but did not post.
I miss your instruction. I have never really played much football so I get confused on some terms. What is 21 personnel and other personnel concepts. Routes. What is a rub route and a dig route and so forth. On defense you have 2 lb's compared to 3. Can you please clear these things up for me. Give me the football lessons I never got. Thanks bro.
same boat as you. like i hear a gap, b gap and stuff. im not quite sure what that all means.
TCUDan has been coaching internationally for many years now. I have tried to keep up with his career. The latest I have on him is he was signed as the head coach for Firenze Guelfi in Italy.
Below is a link to an article from October of last year with an interview with Dan. He has quite the resume'. I don't know if the league was active this year or not. Maybe our European members can help out on that.
Dan Levy new head coach of Italy's Firenze Guelfi
The Firenze Guelfi, fresh off a historic season for the club, have signed Dan Levy as their new head coach for the 2020 season. The Guelfi reached the Italian final last year in only their fourth season in Italy's top league and Levy takes over from Art Briles who will remain coaching in the US...www.americanfootballinternational.com
Gaps count from the center outward, mirrored in both directions.
A gap = betw C & G
B gap = betw G & T
C gap = betw T & TE (or off tackle if there is no TE)
D gap = alley
E gap = wide
Coaches rarely say "D gap" or "E gap"... we'll say "alley" or "wide/numbers/sideline" etc.
I was briefly a college OC but honestly, I love traveling and have been able to have a pretty successful overseas career. I love it. The coaching lifestyle (college and pro) is a serious life commitment, and I think it gets lost on people the amount of personal sacrifice it requires. I figured out pretty quickly that that wasn't the direction for me.Man. I didn't know he was a coach. Why isn't he in the NFL or even college. He's so knowledgeable.
Good to see you around!
Thanks brother, good to see you too. And everyone else. I'll try to get on here more, especially if I get tagged to answer some questions.
With the prevalence of spread offenses, a lot of coaches/coordinators bypass route trees and focus more on concepts. I teach everything in concepts... so you're talking about Curl/flat, Post/dig, slant/arrow, Snag, Stick, etc. The only times you'll have those isolated routes is on with your backside X in a 3x1 or 2x1 formation, where the coach or the QB can tag it.
Those routes adhere more to a traditional route tree. Everything else is concepts.
