Gayle Hatch System. Functional strength to produce explosive athletes.
Bring in someone competent.
In a 2005 study (Tricoli), it was determined that Olympic weight lifting was more effective in increasing speed, squat jump performance and counter-movement performance than a vertical jump program. Similarly, in a 2004 study (Hoffman), it was determined that Olympic weight lifting improves vertical jump and 40 speed more than a power lifting program.
Coach Hatch proteges have gone on to coach strength and conditioning at Alabama, LSU, Florida State, Tennessee and more.

From the above study, some more detail:
Outstanding Gayle Hatch Strength Coaches
Brad Roll - Head Strength and Conditioning Coach for the NFL Cleveland Browns. He had previous NFL Head Strength and Conditioning Coaching jobs at Tampa Bay, Buffalo and Okland. While serving as Head Strength and Conditioning Coach at the University of Miami (FL), the Hurricanes won two NCAA Football National Championships (1989,1991). Roll was Head Strength and Conditioning Coach for the Kansas Jayhawks working closely with the National Championship Basketball Team (1988). In 1981-1986, he served as Head Strength and Conditioning Coach at Southwestern LA now called Louisiana Lafayette from 1981-1986. It was during these 5 years that he studied Olympic Weightlifting under hall of fame coach, Gayle Hatch.
Tom Moffitt - Head Strength and Conditioning Coach at Louisiana State University (LSU). In 2011 LSU won the SEC Football Championship with a 13-0 record.. In 2007 LSU won the BCS National Championship and were SEC Football Champions. 2003 BCS Football National Champions and SEC Football Champions; 2004 Sugar Bowl Champions; 2001 S.E.C. Football Champions. Moffitt came from the University of Miami where his contributions were instrumental in Miami winning the 2001 BCS Football National Championship; Before coaching at Miami, Moffitt spent four seasons as associate strength and conditioning coach at the University of Tennessee. His contributions were a vital part of Tennessee's football team winning the BCS National Championship in 1998. Moffit was named the 1999 Collegiate Football Strength and Conditioning Coach of the Year by the Professional Football Strength and Conditioning Coaches Society. In 2003, Moffitt was named College Strength and Conditioning Coach of the Year by the American Football Monthly.
And Swasey worked for Moffitt in 1997 and 1998 and came back to be the Head S&C in 2000. S&C wasn't an issue between 2000 and 2003 when Miami went 46-4 and won 32 games in a row. How much lifting did Bryant McKinnie or DJ Williams do with Moffitt? These were different types of athletes.
Lol so now it's the players. When we're talking a our donofrio it's all on the coach, but when it's swasey's head on the chopping block the problem is our players.
**** that double standard. We got worse and worse every year under swasey .
From national champs the year he took over (moffit's doing) to national chumps
