You hit on a good point there EKU when you said feeder programs. It starts at the bottom with developing as many kids as possible so as to when they reach the high school level there are more than 11 prepared to contribute. I like it for the fact that everyday in practice a kid can concentrate on his position. Say for example back to Kid A and B. Kid A is our starting RB and kid B is one of our starting corners well everyday whether its our Defense day or Offense day its is irrelevant. A and B re both getting double the reps at their respective positions. Your right also if you have a stud he's gotta be on the field but if there is a slight drop off it can be made up by those extra reps a kid sees during a normal weekly practice routine throughout a season. I love how Belfry has incorporated this the last decade. A kid may not be a great Corner, per say , as a freshman or sophomore but by the time he's a junior having played that position everyday in practice for 3 straight years, he evolves into a very capable player. You've developed another kid while resting another. Makes a ton of sense to me. At SStack, your guys second and third teams would wear out most teams you play on a given Friday night. It's a win win for your kids weekly to practice against a team of that caliber. No wonder the level you guys have achieved. Thanks for your input also.
