    do you call the second man through your zone for the WS SS to take deep?

    So what are your rules in this 2x2 formation to ensure all four verticals are covered, as this is a lot of pressure on your free safety. Do you stay in cover 3 or check to cover 4?

      David Henderson typically you want to give an “Alert Stretch” call so they know to anticipate playing the vertical from number 2 with outside leverage to funnel to the Free Safety

    We have to stop teaching kids to cover dirt. Predetermined zones don’t match receivers(ie. you tell them cover an area , offense audibles to 4 verts). Also no field is evenly split, there’s bounds to be uneven territories. When they get to college they will be behind. Coming from a division 1 athlete.

      If a college can't teach a kid their coverage scheme, that college is going to lose. High Schools should not base scheme on what that kid is going to do in college. Pattern matching is great, we've done a lot of it. It's not the be all, end all of coverage.

      Coming from a long time coach and a Power 5 Division 1 athlete I will tell you that it is not the HS coaches job to get his players ready for college. It is his job to get him ready to be an outstanding HS player and to win games. Spending a lot of time on teaching schemes is a waste of time at the HS level. making your players good at what they do is the key to winning games. Most kids at the HS level are not experienced enough to run complex schemes. If they are successful at what they do then they win the battle. Plus the fact that only a small percentage of your players will ever play college FB. So, RWJ, you are wrong in your thinking about this.

      gag1025 inaccurate. I said nothing about a “scheme” ever. Please don’t insert words into my statement and then create a false argument. Everything you said is wrong due to the fact that i never mentioned anything about a “scheme.” The information I’m referring to is principal based. You can apply it across the board as i already have in experience and have plenty of evidence to go with that claim. Let’s chat about it.

      @@robertwilliamsjr.2452 actually pattern matching is a scheme. You may not have worded it that way but thats exactly what it is. You don't teach youth kids extensive rpos for the same reason. Covering dirt at that age is extremely effective.
