This isn’t too bash any past or current coaches. Are coaches constantly going to coaching clinics in order to better themselves say to learn new concepts? It’d be really interesting to know how somebody works himself up the ladderin the world of coaching.

Absolutely. From high school all the way thru the NFL, most coaches spend time attending clinics, expanding their knowledge of the game, and networking with other coaches. Hell, back in the mid/late 90's, I used to fly out to Lincoln to attend the Huskers coaches clinics, which were amazing. I learned more at those clinics than anywhere else, and I was a measly assistant coach at the high school varsity level.

Take Josh McDaniels after his last firing as head coach. He literally traveled the country, working with various levels of coaches to understand different concepts/schemes/techniques to see if he could adapt some of the things that are being done at lower levels to the NFL game. For a coach, the game is constantly evolving. If you aren't continuously learning, you will fall behind.

Now I'm sure there are some ego maniacs out there who believe they have all the answers, but for the most part, it is a very common thing.

Do college coaches still have time to do that anymore?

WTH happened to all of our coaches? Seems like when they arrive their brains are.sucked dry of football common sense.
The one good thing about the NIL Era is now we have a measurable to compare progress with ...INDIANA.....shape up fast or get out.

If I remember correctly, Frank Solich did that as well before being hired at Ohio.

Thanks for the insight.

You appear to have held up well since the mid 90's Nebraska clinics to now.

Congratulations!

Obviously running from thread to thread to bash coaches. I would think you would enjoy the Indiana message boards much more than trying to set fire to this one. Of course, could be one of two things.....IU doesn't have active message boards or setting fire to this one is more fun?
