Mark Chmielinski, NFL Game Analyst & Producer - Defensive Coordinator

"Coach's Office software is the best football software of its kind. In 2000, the University of Pennsylvania hired a new Offensive Coordinator and if it wasn't for Coach's Office, we would have experienced terminology overload. The software just makes sense. Playbooks, practice scripts, game plans, and position manuals are all kept on my computer using Coach's Office. I love it!"

Pat Narduzzi - Defensive Coordinator at Michigan State

"I have been using Coach's Office for six years. Don't know what I would do without it. Keeps me organized, keeps all variations of defensive calls at my finger tips."

Coaching Experience

Pat Narduzzi is in his first year as defensive coordinator at Michigan State. Narduzzi, who served as Mark Dantonio's defensive coordinator all three years at Cincinnati, developed a solid defensive unit during his tenure with the Bearcats.

Defense was the strong suit for UC in 2006, as Cincinnati ranked among the national leaders during the regular season in tackles for loss (No. 21 at 6.8 per game), pass efficiency defense (No. 23 at 109.3 rating), rushing defense (No. 27 at 107.5 ypg.), total defense (No. 31 at 304.3 ypg.), scoring defense (No. 34 at 19.3 ppg.) and sacks (No. 34 at 2.3 pg.). UC held seven of its 12 opponents to less than 100 yards rushing, highlighted by performances of 36 yards each in back-to-back games against Miami-Ohio and Akron. In UC's 30-11 win over then-No. 7 Rutgers on Nov. 18, the Bearcats held the nation's No. 20 rushing offense to a season-low 50 yards on the ground, and held the nation's No. 4 rusher, Ray Rice, to a season-low 54 yards. Middle linebacker Kevin McCullough led the team in tackles and ranked fifth in the BIG EAST with 13.5 tackles for loss. Defensive end Trevor Anderson ranked sixth in the BIG EAST in both tackles for loss (13.0) and sacks (6.0).

In his first season as defensive coordinator at UC in 2004, Narduzzi constructed the defense which led the Bearcats to a runner-up finish in Conference USA and a victory in the Fort Worth Bowl. The secondary ranked 26th in the nation and first in C-USA in pass defense. The Bearcats also ranked second in C-USA and 38th nationally in total defense, and third in the conference in scoring defense and pass efficiency defense. Three Bearcat defenders from that team: Trent Cole, Tyjuan Hagler and Daven Holly, were taken in the NFL Draft, while six others earned all-league recognition. UC's 2005 defense had as many as eight first-year freshman starters, and Narduzzi helped groom two of them, Mike Mickens and Corey Smith, to second-team All-BIG EAST and Freshman All- America honors.

Prior to his arrival in Cincinnati, Narduzzi was the architect of the Miami-Ohio defense in 2003 which helped the RedHawks to a No. 10 finish in the national polls, a Mid-American Conference championship and a win over Louisville in the GMAC Bowl. Miami-Ohio ranked first in the MAC in rushing defense (19th nationally), scoring defense (22nd nationally) and pass efficiency defense (34th nationally). The RedHawks also ranked second in the MAC and 35th nationally in total defense.

Narduzzi previously helped Northern Illinois to a pair of MAC divisional titles during his three seasons in DeKalb (2000-02) as linebackers coach. In 2002, the Huskies had the league's stingiest defense against the run and were ranked 38th nationally. Narduzzi coached with offensive line coach Dan Roushar for three seasons while he was at NIU.

Narduzzi, who has compiled 17 seasons of coaching experience, began his career at Miami-Ohio in 1990, serving two seasons as a graduate assistant and one as a receivers coach in 1992.

In 1993, he started a seven-year tenure at Rhode Island, and served as defensive coordinator from 1998-99. Narduzzi and Roushar also crossed paths at Rhode Island for one season (1993), when Narduzzi was coaching linebackers and Roushar was coaching the offensive line.

A Youngstown, Ohio, native, Narduzzi earned allstate football honors at Ursuline High School. He played for his father Bill Narduzzi at Youngstown State as a freshman in 1985 and led the Ohio Valley Conference in tackles. Narduzzi then transferred to Rhode Island and became a three-year starter linebacker for the Rams from 1987-89.

Narduzzi completed his bachelor's degree in physical education at Rhode Island in 1990 and later earned a master's degree in sports psychology at Miami- Ohio in 1992.

Jeff Jagodzinski, Head Coach, Boston College

"We enjoy using the Coach's Office software. It saves us a lot of time. Good Luck!"

Coaching Experience

To call Jeff Jagodzinski's first season as the head football coach at Boston College a success would be an understatement.

After all, the 2007 Eagles finished 11-3, becoming the first BC team to win 11 games since 1940. With a win over Michigan State in the Champs Sports Bowl (BC's eighth consecutive bowl game win, the longest active streak in college football), Jagodzinski surpassed Maryland head coach Ralph Friedgen and former Clemson head coach Ken Hatfield for the most wins by a first-year head coach in Atlantic Coast Conference history. Jagodzinski and West Virginia's Rich Rodriguez were named by the American Football Coaches Association as the Region 1 Coaches of the Year.

Jagodzinski's debut was a season to remember for BC fans, as the Eagles began the year 8-0, the third-best start in school history. After their come-from-behind 14-10 win over No. 8 Virginia Tech that will go down as one of the most memorable games in BC football history, the Eagles climbed to No. 2 in both major polls, their highest ranking since being ranked No. 1 in 1942. The squad became the first BC football team to win 10 or more games in consecutive seasons, and the senior class became the most successful in school history. The team won the ACC Atlantic Division and advanced to the ACC Championship Game for the first time when they pulled off a stunning come-from-behind win at Clemson. They defeated Miami for the first time since the famous "miracle in Miami" game in 1984 and finished 10th in the final AP college football poll and 11th in the USA Today poll, their highest final ranking since the 1984 season.

After he was named BC's 33rd head football coach early in 2007, Jagodzinski hit the ground running. He retained the services of key assistants Frank Spaziani (defensive coordinator) and Bill McGovern (linebackers coach) and then assembled an impressive staff that includes former head coaches Jack Bicknell Jr. (assistant head coach/offensive line coach) and Steve Logan (offensive coordinator). Jagodzinski and his staff then went to work to teach and install an entirely new system to his team in time to face a tough schedule that included three consecutive league games to start the year.

Quarterback Matt Ryan flourished in the new system installed by Jagodzinski and Logan, becoming a Heisman Trophy candidate and eventually winning the Johnny Unitas Golden Arm Award and the Manning Award after being named ACC Player of the Year. Safety Jamie Silva became a consensus All-America first-team selection, and the Eagles finished second in the country in rushing defense.

Jagodzinski continued to make academics a priority for the program, and the Eagles achieved the highest graduation rate (93%) of any team in the top 25. The team won the ACC Sportsmanship Award for football and continued its leadership role in campus and community service functions.

Named to his position Dec. 19, 2006, the 44-year-old Jagodzinski spent the previous season as the offensive coordinator for the Green Bay Packers. Before Green Bay, he spent three seasons with the Atlanta Falcons after five years with the Packers (1999-2003) as tight ends coach.
Although Jagodzinski came to BC from the professional ranks, he spent 14 years as a college coach, including two successful seasons (1997-98) as offensive coordinator at Boston College. At BC, his offenses averaged more than 400 yards per game in each of his two seasons. In addition, during both years the Eagles allowed the fewest sacks in the Big East, going from last to first in 1997.

In 1998, Jagodzinski saw one of his pupils gain All-America honors as running back Mike Cloud earned first-team honors and ranked third in the country in rushing; Cloud subsequently was drafted in the second round by Kansas City in 1999. One of his linemen, All-Big East center Damien Woody, was a 1999 first-round draft pick of the New England Patriots, the 17th selection overall. Jagodzinski also coached Seahawks All-Pro quarterback (and former Green Bay backup) Matt Hasselbeck during his 1997 senior season at BC.

Jagodzinski served as Atlanta's offensive line coach in 2005, a promotion he earned after his first year in Atlanta, 2004, as tight ends coach. While in Atlanta, he worked with offensive line consultant Alex Gibbs, the architect of some of the best offensive lines in NFL history, including that of the 1997-98 Super Bowl champion Broncos.

Known as one of the NFL's most successful rushing offenses, the Falcons led the NFL in both rushing yards per game and rushing yards per carry during Jagodzinski's two years in Atlanta. As line coach in 2005, the Falcons' zone-blocking schemes led the way for RB Warrick Dunn's career-high 1,416 rushing yards, a Pro Bowl effort. In part behind timely blocks from the offensive line, Atlanta in 2004 set a franchise record with 2,672 rushing yards, a springboard to the team's berth in the NFC Championship game.

Alge Crumpler, Jagodzinski's primary pupil as tight ends coach in 2004, went to the Pro Bowl that season after catching 48 passes for 774 yards and a career-high six TDs. Crumpler's 16.1-yard per-catch average led all NFL tight ends in `04.

Prior to joining the Falcons, Jagodzinski spent five years (1999-2003) as the Packers' tight ends coach and was instrumental in launching the career of three-time Pro Bowl tight end Bubba Franks. In 2002, Franks recorded 54 receptions, the first 50-plus catch season by a Packers tight end since Boston College graduate Mark Chmura tallied 54 in 1995. Franks' mark fell just two shy of Paul Coffman's club-record 56 (1979).

Prior to his coaching stint at Boston College, Jagodzinski served on coaching staffs at East Carolina (1989-96), Louisiana State (1987-88), Northern Illinois (1986), and the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater (1985), his alma mater.

Before becoming part of the UW-Whitewater coaching staff, Jagodzinski was a three-year starter and four-year player (1981-84) at fullback for the Warhawks. He earned a B.S. degree in education at Whitewater in 1985.

Jagodzinski attended West Allis (Wis.) Central High School, where he played football and baseball, earning all-conference honors in football and participating in the Shrine game, the state's all-star contest, following his senior season.

Coach's Office User Since 1998
"I've been using the drawing, scripting, and practice card features of Coach's Office since 1998. The program has cut our practice preparation time by 70%, giving us more time to view video and work with our players. The support on this software is outstanding. I'd recommend it to any coach."

Coaching Experience
The 2006 offense was balanced with 2,480 rushing yards and 2,682 passing yards. Three different running backs logged 100-yard games and QB Paul Thompson put up numbers that ranked among the top 10 in school history for passing yards, touchdown passes, and completion percentage. OU ranked No. 19 nationally in scoring offense; No. 17 in rushing offense.

The 2005 line produced consensus All-Big 12 pick Davin Joseph as Adrian Peterson again eclipsed 1,000 rushing yards. Three freshmen were integrated as starters.

In 2004, the line, featuring Outland winner Jammal Brown and Walter Camp All-American and Rimington Award finalist Vince Carter, cleared the way for Heisman runner-up Adrian Peterson's 1,925 rushing yards while allowing a Big 12-low nine sacks.• The 2004 Sooners, featuring Wes Sims, a sixth-round draft choice by the Chargers, and All-Big 12 pick Joseph, were No. 8 in total offense and averaged 34.8 points.

The 2003 team ranked No. 3 nationally with 42.9 points/game and No. 19 with 439.4 yards of total offense/game.

In 2002, the line had four honorees as Quentin Griffin fell 13 yards shy of OU's season rushing record.

As Northwestern's offensive coordinator, the 2001 Wildcats led the Big 10 in total offense and QB Zac Kustok was conference leader in that same category.

In 2000, Northwestern set 25 school marks while ranking No. 3 nationally in total offense. The co-Big Ten champs were led by Damian Anderson, who rushed for a Big Ten record 193.6 yards per game.

Finalist for the 2000 Broyles Award.• Has helped produce 14 1,000-yard rushers. At OU, both Peterson (1,925 yards in 2004, 1,024 in 2005) and Griffin (1,884 yards in 2002) worked under Wilson.

Daniel Gelman - Youth Football Coach

"Westport PAL Junior 6 Blue and Westport PAL Junior 5 teams were undefeated Champions in the Fairfield County Football League. Each team created playbooks with Coach's Office software.

It was a great tool for us to use. We had the freedom of choosing how 'in depth' we wanted to go with the software or how 'basic'. As a coach, it allowed us to manage our time better and provide superior playbooks and game plans.

We worked smarter, not harder! Great stuff!"

Andy Starzomski, Assistant Coach

St. Mary's Knights, Central Ontario Bowl Championship

"Coach's Office provided the platform to help educate our players and ensure they were prepared for each game of an undefeated season. The tools provided by Coach's Office® saved me a tremendous amount of time in preparing for each practice and game. I strongly recommend the use of Coach's Office to all football coaches in US and Canada."

Doug Trainor, Head Football Coach, Ballard High School, Seattle, WA

"I just wanted to drop a note of thanks to you and your staff at Coach's Office. Last season, as our team reached the playoffs for the first time in the school's history, it was Coach's Office that paved the way for us with practice and game day organization, opponent scouting, and player instruction. In my mind, we would have not reached the state 4A Championship game without the help of Coach's Office. In fact, I can't imagine getting ready to play an opponent without it from now on. Keep up the good work and I look forward to working with you in the future."

John Lindley, Linebacker Coach, Hillsdale College, MI

"A few years I drove 16 hours to attend a one-hour demonstration on Coach's Office. It was well worth the trip. I have been using Coach's Office ever since and every staff I know that uses the product has nothing but great things to say about it. Bottom line: it saves you time. Pre-season, you can create a playbook quickly using powerful drawing tools and pre-made templates. During the season, you can script and get cards drawn in minutes, allowing you to watch that play the 4th or 5th time and really get inside your opponent, as opposed to just seeing it once or twice. You will be a better coach and your team will be a better team because of this.

As good as the program is, in my opinion, the reason to get this software is the outstanding Tech Support. Whenever I have had a question or an issue, it has gotten resolved in a timely fashion. They are absolutely committed to making sure this product functions the way YOU want it to. I would recommend it to any coach at any level."

Coaching Experience

John Lindley, linebacker coach, enters his fourth season on the Hillsdale College coaching staff in 2008. During his tenure with the Chargers, Lindley has coached Tom Korte to two straight First-Team All-GLIAC seasons.

Lindley comes to Hillsdale after spending the 2004 season at Tiffin University as the offensive line coach. In a coaching career that has spanned more than 20 seasons, Lindley is experienced at finding and coaching talent in the state of Michigan. Lindley has coached at Eastern Michigan and Central Michigan Universities, as well as New Jersey City University. He also spent three years as the offensive line coach at Michigan Tech before going to Tiffin.

His respect for head coach Keith Otterbein and the Hillsdale program are the two things that drew Lindley to the job as Chargers’ linebacker coach. “When my former teams played Hillsdale, they were always tough, hard-nosed guys,” Lindley said. “I didn’t know much about the school then, but I have since learned that my philosophy is very much in line with the school’s. It’s just a perfect fit.

"We will be known as the most aggressive linebackers in football. "When it comes to coaching his players, Lindley steps into a position that has been well-known for Hillsdale in recent years. Rob North, a 2004 graduate, and Josh Mott, a 2005 graduate, were each All-Amercian selections either pre-season or after the season. Both were linebackers and embodied that intensity Lindley wants his current players to bring to the field every day in practice.

Lindley received his bachelor’s degree from Michigan Tech, and has a Master’s Degree in Urban Education from Jersey City State College.

Dave Mencarini, Head Coach, Quince Orchard High School, Gaithersburg, MD

"Coach's Office helped our coaching staff and team finish 14-0 and win the Maryland 4A State Championship. We finished ranked #1 in the Metro Area and 40th nationally. The software has been instrumental in helping us "work smarter" as a coaching staff in our game-week preparation. The slide show option makes team presentations much more efficient and effective. This software has all the functions needed to help solve the issue of time management in all aspects of running a successful program."

John Lizak, Offensive Line, Elmhurst College, IL

"With the changes this last year in the NCAA in the amount of field time allotted, I decided that I needed to become a better classroom teacher. After much research and comparisons, I chose Coaches Office. It, in my opinion, has no equal. It has allowed me to become a more effective teacher in the classroom and my linemen are smarter on the field because of it. I was able to present the playbook, created in Coaches Office, to my offensive line using the slideshow.

In addition, your program enabled me to provide tip sheets and play cards weekly to my offensive line in a very quick and efficient manner. Today’s athlete is very visual and needs more than the X’s and O’s on a white board. I recently purchased the video module for this reason. I have already put it to use at a clinic in which I was a guest speaker and received a great response and look forward to this fall for my classroom sessions of film and slideshow.

I don't even want to remember how I use to do things. I can honestly say that coaches can also feel confident that they are not only purchasing a great product but a great relationship/partnership with phenomenal technical support that is second to none."

"I've been with various high schools, a Junior College, and now the University of Hawaii, where I was fortunate to be part of their best years in school history.
