Homer Smith wrote years ago that only a computer could keep track of everything that affects a call.

Today, coaches finally have tools that can do it.

In this episode, Keith Grabowski looks at how in-game analytics can help coaches move beyond reports and use information while the game is still being played. The focus is not replacing the coach or letting numbers make the call. It’s building a process that helps a staff recognize problems faster, confirm what they’re seeing, and get to better decisions before the next series.

Keith connects Homer Smith’s ideas from Calling Plays with lessons from Jordan Irsik’s work at Folsom High School, including his Set-Stress-Break call sheet and his approach to using real-time information on game day.

Topics include:

Homer Smith’s vision for computers and play calling
Why analytics should support decisions, not just create reports
How real-time information helps coaches adjust faster
Jordan Irsik’s Set-Stress-Break process
Using Modern Football to organize information at game speed
Building a staff process for better in-game decisions
