Have you seen Pete Carroll's video he put out on how to tackle?
Are they the staff that teaches head behind, wrap arms around and twist? I saw a major college or NFL coach talking about this last month and can't recall who it was.

Yep... I am going to watch the full thing this week. Looks like he is teaching some sort of rugby style tackling.
Over the weekend, I watched the 1969 Arkansas-Texas football game. I haven't watched it in about a decade. The difference in how the game is played from a physical standpoint is ridiculous. Arkansas' starting offensive line averaged 210 lbs. This years offensive line averages 325 lbs.

Even today, I loathe Houston Street if only because he is the spawn of the devil. 
I'm the dad who believes in one sport at a time, one team at a time (active). Sure some mild overlap can happen from the end of one sport/team to the beginning of another but you get my point. And I always give priority to the school's sport/schedule. Why? All kinds of reasons, but to name a few: my child's safety/health will always trump "winning", the process has worked throughout history as well as for both my children (one is 24 yrs old), playing sports/activities with school mates (regardless of skill level or age) can be some of life's great moments/memories, I don't play "keeping up with the Jones" in life or sports, focusing on one sport/team at a time tends to focus a players loyalty and desire for that particular team to play well (at the moment, it is the only one you have to play for), learning to take pride, or have respect for, or show support for your local community and its institutions (like a school) is an important life lesson, and I could go on ...

That was one of those games I remember to this day where I watched it. I was a wishbone QB in junior high at the time. I worshiped that Texas team with Street, Worster, Bertlesen and Koy.
Showcase team for cheerleading?
