We changed from a passing to more of a running team, using the Wing-T offense he learned from the University of Delaware, and developed more physical defensive schemes.  We implemented a tremendous number of changes, which maybe hurt us a little last year, but the kids were very good about accepting what we were trying to do. Certainly we got better, and next year we expect to improve even more next year. The longer you play, the more important your strength program becomes. <br>One special way Herron helps motivate his players is to offer a football camp in the summer. The players go to Epworth by the Seas on St. Simmons Island, a Christian retreat in southeast Georgia on the banks of the historic Frederica River.  It s basically a church camp, says Herron.  We took the kids there to get them away from the town and get a chance to bond as a team. We still work them hard on the field, but there are a lot of fun activities and the kids really get to know each other. <br>In the weightroom, Herron follows a BFS program. Because of the technical nature and importance of the power clean to his program, Herron insists on having his athletes learn the lift as soon as they enter his program, and he even encourages athletes at the middle school level to learn it.  We have the BFS training plates so the bar sits up there where it s supposed to, and we videotape them performing the lift, says Herron.  We really emphasize technique with young athletes; we don t try to put too much weight on them. I ve got some great assistant coaches, and they re very good at teaching the lift. Our program is also about kids helping kids too-those who perform the lift well help teach. br>With his proven football coaching system and a BFSstrength training program in place, Herron is set to achieve his ultimate goal of winning a state championship. Although the team may not break many passing records in the process, when it comes to football strength, Herron s players are the fittest  cats around.<br><br><br> We have the BFS training plates so the bar sits up there where it s supposed to, and we videotape them performing the lift, says Herron.  We really emphasize technique with young athletes. th the other guys on the team, says Garrard.  It just shows them that, sure, I m the quarterback, but I can do a lot of the things that you guys can do . . . even though they think that all we do is drop back and throw the football and we don t get tired or have to be as good athletically as they are. It s great just being able to get out there and compete and show them what I can do physically. <br>Although this is Whitten s first year at East Carolina, he says there was originally some concern about how hewould work with a senior quarterback and, for that matter, his senior-dominated team.  With any new situation, there are always some differences in philosophies, but the basic premise is that we want guys to get into the best condition they can, says Whitten.  My number one goal is to let the players know that even though we do things a little bit differently from the previous staff, we re going to achieve the same results and we re going to get better and better we want to convince them that they re in good hands. <br>One factor that will make Whitten s job a bit easier is the construction of East Carolina s new strength training facility. The current weightroom is 6,000 square feet. The new weightroom, part of a 52,000-square-foot multipurpose center, will cover 22,000 square feet. The room will include a four-lane, 50-yard sprint track, a 20-yard x 20-yard agility area, plyometric area,M-O5eLZrIzO8ț+3.\y%I'k^5ԫCwH#?5LT>4k…f#RG[)~ z}Tڍ_$Vk$ ܯ)aS6)eI Ӣ*×W[N_"jyb/8'mHo Aױ!Wk+;?1ӊan d`L̬У->/^@d Qy;4$2[I4xۦT6IC)iAU;m ]]3~I/;PmZ>[YZW:j뎵zd9HH4n+5@/&eYr$1u1e$榛BƲK lKzH=ttzopln(ks0C/FT08^R.LjsZr?r՟yW}ٔDGv8_Oq];_, S; 5k2lz(X[HR5H8_oeUom<'fI+I 㿅Vmv,5JF(&0Qjs$=q1R g"EekuJR4UkYkQ? θd8߇NbBavMϢv}Snա?!dQ̘/P2bt# ĚLi'f&]\)bZD V
