re: Thoughts on Closed vs Open Practice

If I were a coach I would close every practice. There are just too many message board football “experts” who think they know more that the coaching staff and want to critique everything and post their ignorant opinion at every opportunity. Crap like that serves no good whatsoever and can be detrimental to the program. There’s a very good reason these “experts” are in the stands instead of on the field coaching.
