I was asked to talk about offensive football. As far as teaching the quarterback, I have some very simple rules. I copied these from some people a long time ago (Note: This refers to Lavell Edwards Head Football Coach, and Doug Scovill OC / QB Coach at BYU before Norm Chow). The quarterback must always give a command that is understood and must never give a command that will be misunderstood. This is just good common sense right? You can fool a lot of the people but you had better not try to fool your quarterback. He needs to know what is going on all of the time. That is the number one rule that I ask of all our young players. Never give a command that will be misunderstood, and always give a command that will be understood.
