Does your offensive system set up best to be run by a pro-style quarterback? Do you have an athlete or two whose QB skills are best suited for a pro-style approach? If so, this video featuring Grapevine Faith High School head coach Kris Hogan will be a huge benefit to you and your developing QB. Coach Hogan breaks down his best drills tailored to pro-style quarterbacks and gives many coaching tips that will help your players improve at a rapid pace.
Drills for Drop Back Mechanics and Ball Handling
Hogan kicks things off with an explanation on his philosophy in terms of developing young QBs and the importance of not trying to get every athlete to throw the ball with the exact same delivery. He goes into detail about how to teach ball handling for taking a snap, hand-offs, play action passes, and toss plays. Next, he covers a series of drills that teach 3-step drops, 5-step drops, and drops from the shogun. Included are drills that teach pass rush escape, boot and sprint out mechanics.
Complete Throwing Development Program
Coach Hogan continues by demonstrating several drills that help develop passing skills. Multiple general and specific warm-up drills are shown that help minimize the risk of throwing injuries.
Additionally, Hogan demonstrates exercises that teach QBs to make several of the most common throws from both a drop and when they are flushed from the pocket. Special emphasis is placed on training quarterbacks to escape the rush and reset their feet to make a variety of throws. Finally, you'll get drills that teach reads and movement keys.
If you need a complete QB development system that is presented in a specific and functional manner, with minimal "fluff," then this video from Coach Hogan is just what the doctor ordered!

A quarterback could possess all of the physical tools in the world, but if they don't have equally impressive mental capabilities in regards to football, then their ceiling (and your program's) will be lowered considerably.
Kris Hogan, Grapevine Faith High School head coach, addresses the mental side of elite quarterback play in this informative video. You'll learn what it takes between the ears to become a complete QB that can lead a program to a championship.
Defining and Training the "IT" Factor
Hogan starts this whiteboard presentation by explaining what the "IT" factor is. He explains that the qualities needed to be a successful quarterback are difficult to measure by traditional tests. Coach Hogan further elaborates about the need of the player to have a clear understanding of his responsibilities and his own abilities. Finally, he covers how to create the conditions for each player on your roster to develop their own "IT" factor.
Mental Approach & Habits
Next, Coach Hogan explains the process of training his players to have the correct attitude to be successful. You'll learn the importance of helping your players understand what good habits are and how to avoid developing bad habits. Hogan also goes into detail about how the communication process takes place, and why coaches need to be aware of how the mind works so they can best communicate with modern student-athletes.
In all, you'll learn how:
- Communication correlates to subconscious behavior.
- Your player's subconscious mind directs their behavior both on and off the field.
- To construct a program that places emphasis on the process over results.
This video from Coach Hogan is an excellent resource for any coach that is looking for the extra things that coaches and athletes can do to achieve their goals!
