Assistant Coach Upcoming/Requested Features

Assistant Coach icon

Here is a list of features that have been requested and that I plan to add in a future version of Assistant Coach. Please feel free to contact me w/ any suggestions at all.

  • Data Import – the ability to edit a (text) file of profile data and import it into the application
  • Configure Kick-off Data – right now every kick-off is assumed to result in the opposing team having a first down on their own 30-yard line. This should be configurable in the next version of the app
  • Opponent EP – the data for expected points currently applies to both your team and your opponent’s team. This should actually be two separate sets of data
  • Opponent Profiles – (building on the item above) the specific opponent affects a team’s performance in punting, field goals, and on fourth down. The current way to deal with this is to edit a profile before each new game. In the future, perhaps I can find a way to save a base profile and then automatically adjust values for a given opponent. The opponent profile would be much simpler to edit than redoing the entire team profile.
  • Less Confusing Results Color Bars – the colored bars in the 4th Down Results screen may be slightly confusing because the range of possible values goes from -7.0 to +7.0 but is represented by bars that all have a “positive” thickness. Perhaps a better way to visually represent an EP value would be to have a center line with the bar extending to the left (negative) or right (positive).

    I think all of those upgrades are good but not exactly what a coach thats focus is on the game would be and the formation part is amazing but I think we should be able to draw from the formation and I know there is another app with that ability but your app saves formations, names,& numbers why not plays to go with them under the formation we should be able to dorm plays but that’s just my opinion as a coach who has been doing it for years

    Rob, I like your assistant-coach, but I have a PC Tablet with Android 2.2 on it. I cant put my players on the team roster due to the fact that my tablet does not have a phone menu button only a home button.
    Please help!
