Video Blog Series - DIII to DI - Recruiting and Scheduling

I know that this post has been long overdue, but I did not want to be like Coach Spud and just read off ticker news and play by plays, I do that in my own time and not on yours. I probably should have done this video right when recruiting had begun but I didn't think that it would have fit enough of the information and would have been too short of a video. For those that have been missing this video series, I have returned. Check out the latest Recruiting Basics and Scheduling Basics video.


**Please Comment on the Video or on here regarding your thoughts on moving after this season up to DII already or stay and Nazareth and develop the DIII team into something special.

Happy Coaching

Video Blog Series - DIII to DI - Gameplanning

Check out the latest video on game planning. This was from the beginning of the season and has been a  little lack luster. It has not gone well. I will have an update here soon on the Nazareth progress.

Hope that this helps some and I did only go into basics and not the extra more complex stuff(The stuff that really makes your team great) Which basically means this should help you out generally. The complex stuff can take a long time to explain and a long time to implement and I really do not have enough time to be able to do that unfortunately. Maybe in a future episode.

Happy Coaching

Video Blog Series - DIII to DI - Scouting

Video Blog Series - DIII to DI - Selecting a Team

When finding the right team there is a lot to think about rather than just selecting the first team you see or an alma mater or otherwise. This is something that I wished I would have known prior to selecting my very first team in Fisk in the Knight World. In this first video post for this series, I take you into the in's and outs of why I am selecting the team of Nazareth.

Top Reasons:

1. Class Structure
2. Location, Location, Location
3. PRESTIGE!
4. Conference

From these reasons, Class Structure will not follow my blog post on class structure. Class structure is what you should strive for, but to get wins early on having Juniors and Seniors will only help your team to be better in the long run. 

The location is HUGE when it comes to recruiting if we as a video blog stay at Nazareth for more than one season this will help in the recruiting trail. 

Prestige factor helps with recruiting and if you want to recruit at a high level then you will want to have a team with a high prestige value. Nazareth is an A. 

Conference selection boiled down to the number of humans and how many wins I want to have. I selected a conference in which I am going to be the only human coach. 

I hope that you enjoy this video series and explanation that I have below:
