A unexpected treat as former Cornell offensive coordinator Joe Villipiano returns after his first show was a massive success. This time he brings a friend, Jeremy Bandy who is the head coach of Worcester Academy. Joe and Jeremy worked together for several years at Harvard and are good friends along with being outstanding coaches.

Jeremy loves being back in Worcester and its where he met his wife. After being an offensive line coach at the college level for years, he jumped at the opportunity to be a head coach and return to Worcester. A big personality and a fun guy, he has turned the program around at Worcester Academy. The administration is supporting the team and investing 25 million dollars in facilities.

Joe's podcast was such a success I had to bring him on again. Taking care of 3 kids, he was gracious enough to give us his time. We talked about being a coordinator and managing a staff along with players. Jeremy and Joe said when they were at Harvard, the staff was family and it made a difference because the kids believed in them.

Jeremy was able to put together an excellent staff and as a first-time head coach is doing great. Both Joe and Jeremy paid their dues. Started from the bottom and had career advancement, coached undefeated powerful teams at Harvard. They achieved success and earned promotions.

I have known Joe 20 years now which is crazy to say, and I feel like I have known Bandy forever because I heard so much about him. Two of the best football coaches around, Jeremy is one of the best offensive line coaches in the country. Now he is also the offensive coordinator and teaches a class at Worcester Academy. Joe is brilliant and has a special offensive mind. Not like other coordinators who run their system regardless of if the kids are capable. Joe analyzed his personnel and developed an offense to put his players in the best position to succeed. He never asked them to do something they were not capable of. Bandy and Joe are exceptional play callers because they are highly intelligent, able to think on their feet or make adjustments.

Jeremy has done a spectacular job developing players. He can work with them young and really coach them from the ground up. Both are regarded as top recruiters, Jeremy increased the team at Worcester Academy from 20 kids when he arrived up to 45 now. If you are a top athlete in Worcester and want to go to an FCS or FBS college, send film and visit Jeremy. He has placed kids all over to top universities for athletics and academics because Worcester Academy is a prestigious institution.

Nobody worked harder than Joe, as a walk on at UConn, he played as a freshman. He was respected for his toughness and love for the game. I think he has one of the best offensive minds in the game. Cornell led the country in 1st downs, along with time of possession. Whatever school hires him next will be bringing in a great coach, an even better person and a guy who will make a difference.

Jeremy and Joe have impeccable reputations in the coaching world not only because of the success they have, but because they are amazing people. It's rare that nobody says a bad word about them and always say they love them. Pretty much every coach has terrible words to say about me! What a fun episode with two guys who can talk football and make you laugh until you cry. We definitely will do more with them in the future. I am submitting my resume to Bandy; I offered to be the assistant Tight Ends coach and sweep floors. Pure Entertainment ! Enjoy!
