On this episode of Coach and Coordinator, presented by Modern Football Technology, Keith Grabowski is joined by Holman Copeland to explore how artificial intelligence is transforming the way coaches operate, communicate, and lead their programs. The conversation breaks down practical ways AI can serve as a “24-hour GA,” helping coaches streamline organization, analyze game film, create drills, and manage information from multiple sources.

Beyond efficiency, Copeland emphasizes how AI can actually enhance interpersonal connection, freeing time for coaches to develop stronger relationships with players and reinforce team culture. The episode also dives into key considerations such as setting guardrails, avoiding misinformation, and using structured prompts to get reliable outputs. From recruiting and evaluation to staff communication and athlete development, this discussion provides a grounded, real-world look at how coaches can start small with AI and scale its use to improve both performance and culture.
