Jay Johnson: Coaching Primer

With his impressive defense, Mark de Antonio opened one of the most successful positions in the history of football in Michigan. While the quarterback's strong defense in the quarterfinals is memorable, the fall was at least partly due to the overall incompetence of the attack. While I don't think the uniform is a major factor in the 2019 Michigan State disaster, it will be interesting to see what fans will bring to the new recruit for Mail Mail. As a result of the change in training, Tacer hopes to bring his former team from Colorado to East Lance. Taker is with former Colorado attack coordinator Jay Johnson. The Buffaloes 2019's first year in charge of Taker showed me what I expected from the Spartan attack.

Warnings

There should always be warnings, and when it comes to training, changes and what to expect in the future. When it comes to Tacer State and Michigan, there are very few.

1. Colorado, in particular, seems to be limited by the depth of the attack. They chose WRs and QBs, which they struggled to read back, but succeeded in splitting the bet.
2. Tacker was only one year old on the board. Although this does not give the attackers a clear idea of ​​what they want to do, it does give them a clue as to what they will choose and what their attack will be based on.

The Colorado offensive line did not surprise me much. OL coach and athletics coordinator Chris Kapilovich worked at the CU for many years and traveled with Tucer to MSU. However, Kylovich has a relatively successful history, especially in the UNC, so it can be difficult to say where he came from without examining him. Attack Coordinator Jay Johnson also plays a role in Tucker headquarters, so waiting should be a very similar crime.

As for talent, Michigan should have some restrictions, at least at the beginning of the Tucker era. The QB's position should have been a concern after Leverk's dismissal, and no one took a step forward to become a clear replacement. For many years the offensive line was ineffective. And the best WR crash in the NFL Draft. However, they have promising players in the right place and will be well-employed in the future. Maybe this is a transitional year, but the treasury is not empty.

Personal, training and pre-shooting

There were 11 employees in Colorado (1 farmer, 1 TE), probably 90% of the workforce. Outside the Red Zone, select 10 to 12 employees and select only a few images between different work groups. There was a slight increase in the use of 12 people in the Red Zone, but in most cases it was still 11. Nation.

The breeder has an open stem, which accounts for about two-thirds of the owners and probably 75% of the total locks. Behind this was the clear support of former Cass Tech Judge Yaren Mangam.

WR 4 passes through three common WR spots at the same time, the first two leaving the field are not clear. CU TE has almost never left the field.

Colorado is officially under siege due to limited use of personnel and widespread use of firearms. Most bullets are divided between short-range (TE) rifles, long-range (non-TE) rifles and pistols. On some floors of the game there was an element below. Almost always jet movement and final round use (remember the ram attack) were all with Ace's back area.

Another limitation on training was that TEs had 80% of the ammunition in the Y-Off position. This means that since one-way WR is always different from the configuration, there was little or no basic configuration.

The two main combinations are Double Y-Off and X Open Y Trio.

Double Y-Off.

X Open Y Trio Gun

One way to make support difficult is to take TI to the WR class. This happens in a variety of ways, either 3 WR in 3x1, in a group as a number, or sometimes 2 numbers in a set of twins (on the los line or outside).

Next to the twins:

They often used compact shapes to pass the ball, often adding a lower main body. As they passed, it was often a network concept.

As mentioned earlier, they sometimes go downhill

You can say that some back-to-back compression increases, so Y-Off TE sometimes deceives in a "sniffer" mode by laying the back of the contrast protector instead of out of contrast.

The movement was a small part of the crime and took three different forms.

First, there were some game-focused activities, such as moving the arbiter and attacking Safe Run to make the most of the three-person race in Arizona.

Second, they performed some basic training exercises or RB exercises to help identify the most commonly used cover from the main lower third.

Finally, when you want to threaten jet clearing

We had to clear the border with jet jets to win the Michigan fans, sorry ...

They often play tricks on the field to get the team down.

Another time, after the change of ownership, they added some steps.

Colorado had a serious attack, but when the time came, they found themselves in the middle of the group. There are a few exceptions, but this is not a tool you use most often.

Get angry and run away

Colorado has suffered a major attack on the interior, with both the unit unit and the encrypted environment operating in the same way (Note: In PAC12, many groups use a three-person front, which may have some effect.) Read more about Balance)

Separation area ;

Weak interior;

Two standard editions were used during the year , basic stretching zone play and belly reading .

There was a somewhat different feeling in the leading extension area. Off-Y TE is used as the FB sidewalk to the LB level, but TE does not serve as a secondary backup level. See how it was delayed to release Off-Y to fight LB.

Before moving to the second level, they played on the solid formation side of the abdomen due to the collapse of the TE to resemble the first level block, although they performed a different flow process.

In one of the rare cases where 12 staff members entered the game, it was a good time for both teams to get stuck in the game.

What Colorado has seen is the addition of a unique twist to each game, which makes the game plan feel certain, not necessarily something that will be transported or included in future games. This applies to construction, circuit movement and curves.

Some of the crashes that Colorado has repeatedly encountered include Counter OT (I have seen it in two games) and Duo (compared to Arizona). Although all seasons use jet fuel , they are more dependent on Washington. However, the torch was added that these racing designs were very different from the game plan and were not part of the attack. Giving strength. Future competitors to explore.

Passing through the crime

Colorado was a serious violation of the "concepts". This means that the general concepts of two or three people in the crime are used without much attention. On the positive side, these are relatively simple QB concepts and provide clear movement / advanced buttons that allow for fast processing. The defense, on the other hand, has a lot of tools and experience to counter these ideas, and the Colorado attack has left the QB at the foot of the game for a long time after the break.

One thing is certain: The attack gives WR a chance to play on the field. One of their reference concepts is the IZ Play Action 3 Verts (this is a cleaner, lever version than the Houston concept or the Seattle concept). Find a match, take it out and wait for WR to play.

In terms of aggression, there are some basic concepts that many rely on, often reflecting the concept on both sides in 2v2 groups . Double polo is my favorite.

Another popular two-way concept is that the internal receiver is a little deeper than the external WR.

Some concepts include glass plate-7, plate-9, smash and so on.

They also use the fair share of three-person concepts, sometimes the third person comes in the opposite direction. These are usually your regular concepts like stick , boot , flood and snag .

They usually include a front ax before a 3-person concept, usually to bend or close. QB reads and relates usage and attacks the only recipient when appropriate.

Finally, the concept of merging in the red field is Mesh .

I would like to point out that their success in the network has not been good but they have dedicated themselves to working with him on various platforms (Arbi Will, corner tracks, super network, etc.). So, I expect it to continue as the main thing.

They play a little on the screens, but that's not a big deal. The most striking feature is the pseudotunel rear screen for the open field.

Passing through the crime

There was no serious RPO violation in Colorado, but it was. Most of their screen offers come from "present" screens that are part of the RPO .

Note that this is a pre-installed RPO based on number / usage. They also used twists and turns in their attacks on RPOs after firing, but were rarely used. Like I said, this is not an obvious violation of the RPO, but it is enough to justify the violation.

and so on.
I watched a short film about Johnson's time in Minnesota. The crime was very similar to what happened in Colorado. The main difference is the capture of FB and the possible OLF. This resulted in more use of the pin and drag, some power patterns in the game book and some space patterns / resistance, more prominent. However, they were still very dependent on the inner zone.

General Ideas

Overall, I do not agree with the attack, but in principle it is good. The idea seems to be a simple attack that allows players to play faster. Demonstrations are limited, playlists are limited, but you can say that they have concepts that they think they believe in. Unfortunately, this WR has resulted in a number of issues that have not been opened and the QB has struggled to play. Johnson gives kids a chance to play but in addition to some game plan concepts it does little to open up game players.

They have some intelligence. In my opinion, games based on game planning often make sense and bear fruit. They were ready to take them from different fields and link them to existing texts. Overall, however, there were some obvious trends based on formation, distance, and position on the field. There are reasons for trends, and fans who claim to know the directions may not realize that they are creating trends and turning them into strategies based on what is right for you, but it is a very simple mistake.

Finally, and it is very difficult to understand, there are always individual errors, especially in the informal versions. That's why Buffalo relied heavily on a certain set of games, it could be a player limit, it could be a limitation of management, it could be a feature of the first year war, but because of obstacles, many games were stopped. Road junctions, etc.

Personally, I think Salam has a more interesting project attack. He used different team concepts, had a relatively strong RPO attack, and the game was confusing in terms of passing. Maybe new employees can reach out and stick to their plans or maybe they have a foundation they want to build on simplicity and performance.

I like that killing gives children a chance. This allows the team to play at different speeds, attack faster and get ready to hit the field. They relied on a very boring inner zone plan, but that MSU is a recurring theme, and you can build on that, especially for an attack that I thought would be around 50-50 balanced. But in general, the program forces the ISU to beat its competitors and does not give them a program advantage from one game to another.
