Get really good at a few things. It can be like having too many plays in football. He loves pulling sleds and does all of his plyometric drills with weighted vests in order to get used to what football pads feel like. He starts with six pounds and works up to a 12-pound vest after 12 weeks.<br>  Everybody looks good in shorts, challenged Coach Schmidt,  but what about when you put the pads and helmet on.<br>Coach Schmidt has been coaching for 17 years. I asked him about the differences in athletes over this span of time.  Players have gotten stronger but the big difference is in their speed. Players today are much faster. The high school coaches are doing a better job every year and every year I think they just can t get any bigger but they do.<br> I would advise the high school coach to work his players hard on the Squat, Clean and Speed Development. Be able to watch, see and measure improvement in whatever you decide to work on. Organization is the key.<br> You also lift to prevent injuries. For example, we have two Glute-Ham machines. I feel that exercise is really important and believe it may be the primary reason we have only had one hamstring pull in two years.<br> Look at what is important today. Do today what will make you better tomorrow. Consistency is the key. You have got to stick with it not just get fired up for a couple of weeks and then quit. Make sure you get good rest and excellent nutrition. It all comes down to execution and motivation. Help your players understand the why and how of what you are doing. : Regarding injuries, I understand Dr. Michael Ripley works with your athletes. How has he helped your program?<br>DS: I ve known r. Ripley for more than five years, and he is undoubtedly the best sports doctor I have had the pleasure to work with. We ve incorporated a great many of hisked one UT football player,  but I'm kind of scared of him too. That is a perfect coach-player relationship. This player continued his comments, Mad Dog is a motivator. I can't wait to see what he does for our first game. The team gets up for games but Mad Dog takes us to another level. <br>Coach Madden explained his goal for the Longhorns,  At the University of Texas, the emphasis of our strength and conditioning program is speed and explosive power. We help each athlete train the total body through explosive movements to reach an optimal athletic performance. <br>Although Coach Madden is only 35 years of age, he has already helped prepare more than 100 players that are currently on NFL rosters. Chris Smith, a junior defensve end said,  Mad Dog's workouts are unbelievable. Its way more than just weight lifting. He pushes every muscle in your body to help you reach peak performance. Then its your chance to unleash that speed and power on the football field. <br>Coach Madden has six full time assistants and three to four graduate assistants. Lance Hooton, Donnie Maib, Ed Nordenschild, David Plettl, Ken Sheppard and Angel Spassor are the full time assistants. Coach Madden was named National Strength and Conditioning Specialist of the year in 1996 by the International Sports Sciences Association (ISSA). He has been a strength coach at Rice (1984-88), Colorado (1989-92), North Carolina (1993-97) and now Texas in 1998.<br>Coach Madden serves as a member of the Board of Directors of eak Performance USA, ISSA and is on the Editorial Advisory Board of Sports Speed Magazine. He graduated from Vanderbilt in 1993 earning a degree in sociology and played a year of pro football i
