Football Coaching Articles
PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE
The Play of the Day is one of Option football's longest-running daily publications. Produced by Coach Tony DeMeo, the Play of the Day originally consisted of a "cutup" with game video from a single play from his Triple Gun Offense. Since moving to the CompuSports Media Exchange in 2021, Coach DeMeo, who continues to post daily, expanded the topics to include a weekly Motivational post, a High School Play of the Day, Free Chapters and Previews of his CoachTube courses and videos, and more ! In addition to the preview of Coach DeMeo's recent blog posts on our Home page, a Play of the Day Index that includes "x and o" oriented posts is published and updated at Option Central.
