Phone

Holly Software had the following phone conversation:


September 1998
Joe Hollingsworth of Holly Software, Inc. recently spoke with Coach Robbie Jones of Southside High School in Fort Smith, Arkansas.

The following are some of the comments made by Coach Jones during their conversation:
  • "In 1996 Southside was 1 - 9 without PowerScout."
  • "In 1997 Southside, we purchased PowerScout, were 12-2, and
    we won the state championship at 4A!."
  • "I think PowerScout helps a lot!"
  • "I got on the Internet last year and looked at 2 or 3 scouting packages including PowerScout, we picked PowerScout because it was the best. I like the point and click, it makes PowerScout the easiest."
  • "On Sundays we get together and break down 2 films. We take the plays right off the film and put it into PowerScout. We don’t write the plays down. We combine the data from the 2 games off of film with 1 scouted live to get our reports."
  • "We give the kids the Hole Hit, Plays from Hash, and Down & Distance reports."
  • "The defensive coaches make heavy use of the VFP-Down & Distance and the Attack by Formation reports."
  • "PowerScout’s Attack by Formation report diagrams their formations and shows what plays they are going to run and who’s going to get the ball. We coach our linebackers to recognize their formations and make on-field adjustments to the defense signaled in from the sidelines."
  • "In 1997 we gave up less than 100 yards/game rushing and about 80 yards/game passing on defense."
  • "One coach found out we were using PowerScout and said ‘I can’t believe you guys are over there cheating!'"
