Panthers hire strength coach

Joe Kenn is always in the conversation when the country’s top strength and conditioning coaches are mentioned. I truly appreciate Joe’s disclaimer that he is not an Olympic Weightlifter because I always begin my clinics by stating “I am NOT a Strength Coach. I am a Weightlifting Coach. My goal is to produce competitive Olympic Weightlifters.”

Joe’s book, Push, Jump, Punch, shows Joe’s extensive experience, as a top flight strength coach, teaching the Power Clean to athletes of various sports with a wide range of skills and abilities. Joe has always been attentive to detail and his book shows that. The book is set up in such a way that the reader can, actually, trouble shoot a particular technique concern, once again showing Joe’s experience in teaching the Power Clean over his 20 year career.

Push, Jump, Punch will be a great addition to anyone’s library as a resource in learning, teaching or correcting flaws in the Power Clean.

He looks like he could throw Davidson.

From his Louisville Bio (link)

Kenn was named the College Strength and Conditioning Professional of the Year in 2002 and has been a finalist for the award four times during his career. He also earned conference recognition in 1998 (Big West Conference) and again in 2000 (Mountain West Conference).

Kenn has coached numerous NFL players including; former NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year and Pro Bowler, Terrell Suggs (Baltimore Ravens, ASU), former NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year, Mike Anderson (Baltimore Ravens, Utah), 2 Time Pro Bowler Steve Smith (Carolina Panthers, Utah), and recent Super Bowl Champion Kimo Von Oelhoffen (New York Jets, Boise State).

Kenn earned his Bachelor of Science degree in health and sports science from Wake Forest in 1988 and his strength and conditioning specialist certification in 1990. He then earned his Master of Arts degree in curriculum and instruction from Boise State in 1993.

As a football player at Wake Forest, Kenn was a two-year letterman, named a NSCA All-American Strength and Conditioning Athlete award winner as well as Wake Forest's Weightlifter of the Year and the Bill George Award as Linemen of the Year.

He coached the guy that broke Carson Palmer.

    • I don't think working from memory is going to be very productive or useful. You would need to compare them all, which is far easier to do from the breakdowns of each game. That has tiered charts that give real data.  But, even then that wouldn't substitute for a trained eye(s) doing detailed film analysis to attempt to determine if we are modifying the offense dramatically for Bryce.
    • I think front office and general team culture under new ownership is sort of on the right track. The rookies all look incredible compared to where you'd expect each one of them to be right now. Lee's in game coaching is awful, he might be ok as a culture and developmental guy but that can't outweigh the in-game miscues and bad game plans. If LaMelo can't figure out the ankles then I think you gotta trade him for a haul, can't keep having your seasons lost every year because he can't stay on the court. And I say that as a big fan of him. Miller I think is unlucky, he looks likely to be an elite core player for us, but if he can't put together a stretch of healthy seasons he would trend towards LaMelo and need to be moved. I used to like Miles on the court a lot more but nowadays he's just an empty stat guy who needs to go. The short lived hot start to the season was fun but unless LaMelo and Miller both get and stay healthy within the next few weeks I can't even see us being a play-in team this year. And even if they do get healthy, we're probably looking at play-in at best, maybe barely compete for that fringe 6th seed.
