You're looking at a screenshot from Agile Sports' interactive playbook titled the "Huddle." It is a computer program designed by three Nebraska graduate students and it allows players and coaches to be in strategic communication through the Internet.Here are a few examples of the system's use: A Nebraska coach on a recruiting trip in Dallas can write notes or draw diagrams on game video with a telestrator pen and those notes can be viewed by a player in his dorm room in Lincoln.
That same coach can record comments about plays that can be heard by players when they log in. A coach can also text message players to log into the system to study highlighted plays.
Nebraska started using the program last year and a handful of other teams are reviewing it for possible use. The New York Jets have already adopted it and about half the teams in the NFL are also considering it.

This system has the potential to change the way coaches teach their players and how information is transformed
So this system was employed by Nebraska and the Jets last year? Why is the company not bankrupt yet?
As long as Little Bill (the hooded cheating thief) from the *** New England Pasterisks *** doesn't have one of his little cronies hack the system to get everybody's playbook, (My Steelers in particular) I think this is a good idea. Lets see how it plays out though. I'm sure this company takes pride in protecting other peoples properties...
just because the two teams to use it didnt have great seasons dosent mean its not a good idea, you have to look deeper then the playbook to see why those teams had a bad year.
I think this has huge potential, and not just for football either. Awesome stuff.
