Pursuit Tackle Turnovers

bull How did this mottophilosophy come to be

-1st year as d-coordinator wanted to put my mark

on the defense without changing much

-Wanted to add something simple that could

make us a ldquogreatrdquo defense

Pursuit Tackle Turnovers

bull Main Concept Give the players 3 things that

they must do on every play to be a ldquogreatrdquodefense

bull

Worst Case Scenario If a player remembersnothing about what they are supposed to do in

the actual play call or mess up during the play

they can always fall back on these 3 things andfind a way to salvage the play

Pursuit Tackle Turnovers

bull Wherersquos the real change

concepts

important for the players to focus on

3) Goals (Game and Practice)

4) Accountability (Game and Practice)

Pursuit Tackle Turnovers

bull Had to set the tone immediately

-1st defensive practice began with me laying the

foundation for this mottophilosophy

-After warm-ups I brought the whole team

together and explained exactly what it would

take to make us a ldquogreatrdquo defense and how wewere going to get there P-T-T

bull Delivery- After warm-ups team would come

together for our break-out and a small messagefrom me

1) Repetitive- 1

st

drill in every defensivepractice was some form of pursuit drill

2) Be Specific- Explained on a daily basis why

pursuit was the first thing we did why we didit why it was important

3) Goals- Practice Get all of our players to the

football within 3 seconds of the whistle beingblown

during a game4) Accountability- Practice if players donrsquotreach the ball by 3 seconds a gaser is added to

conditioning -Games Up down on Monday forevery loaf

Pursuitbull How to implement the goals and

accountability

-Must have a coach be in charge of countingdown from 3 after the whistle blows then blowthe whistle again have that coach keep track of

the extra sprints (do this for your scout D onoffensive days also)

-Must have coaches relay back to you thenumber of ldquoloafsrdquo their position group hadduring the game

on the defense without changing much

they must do on every play to be a ldquogreatrdquodefense

the actual play call or mess up during the play

they can always fall back on these 3 things andfind a way to salvage the play

develop in game habits that allowed our team toreach our game goals

Every varsity player agreed that the focal

points we had in practice made things secondnature for the game

Pursuit tackle turnovers on defense) helped you

develop in game habits that allowed our team toreach our game goals

Every varsity player agreed that the focal

points we had in practice made things secondnature for the game

that helped encourage our mottophilosophybull For the most part as a staff we were very

consistent with following our rules and

routines

the new mottophilosophybull We won games while implementing this

Did our new motto workbull From the players perspective-

Question from post season evaluation was ldquoDo

you think the focal points we had in practice (ex

Pursuit tackle turnovers on defense) helped you

develop in game habits that allowed our team toreach our game goals

Every varsity player agreed that the focal

points we had in practice made things secondnature for the game

Why did it work

bull We had many situations occur during the year

that helped encourage our mottophilosophybull For the most part as a staff we were very

consistent with following our rules and

routines

bull We had great senior leadership that bought into

the new mottophilosophybull We won games while implementing this

mottophilosophy

-Early in season start with more form as the seasongoes on look to switch your drills up as much as

possible-Base what you drillcircuit you do on your previousgamersquos performance

-Make sure drills are set up beforehand and that youknow how you are going to divide up the players

Turnoversbull Delivery- Same set-up as previous two after

tackle drillcircuit 1 minute break with water

deliver a short message

1) Repetitive- 3rd drill we do in every defensive

practice is a turnover drill or circuit2) Be Specific- Known fact that whoever wins

the turnover battle usually wins the game

If a defense has great team pursuit and

tackles well turnovers will be created

Did our new motto workbull From the players perspective-

Question from post season evaluation was ldquoDo

you think the focal points we had in practice (ex

Pursuit tackle turnovers on defense) helped you

develop in game habits that allowed our team toreach our game goals

Every varsity player agreed that the focal

points we had in practice made things secondnature for the game

Why did it work

bull We had many situations occur during the year

that helped encourage our mottophilosophybull For the most part as a staff we were very

consistent with following our rules and

routines

bull We had great senior leadership that bought into

the new mottophilosophybull We won games while implementing this

mottophilosophy

Turnoversbull Delivery- Same set-up as previous two after

tackle drillcircuit 1 minute break with water

deliver a short message

1) Repetitive- 3rd drill we do in every defensive

practice is a turnover drill or circuit2) Be Specific- Known fact that whoever wins

the turnover battle usually wins the game

If a defense has great team pursuit and

tackles well turnovers will be created

Did our new motto workbull From the players perspective-

Question from post season evaluation was ldquoDo

you think the focal points we had in practice (ex

Pursuit tackle turnovers on defense) helped you

develop in game habits that allowed our team toreach our game goals

Every varsity player agreed that the focal

points we had in practice made things secondnature for the game

Why did it work

bull We had many situations occur during the year

that helped encourage our mottophilosophybull For the most part as a staff we were very

consistent with following our rules and

routines

bull We had great senior leadership that bought into

the new mottophilosophybull We won games while implementing this

mottophilosophy

Turnoversbull Delivery- Same set-up as previous two after

tackle drillcircuit 1 minute break with water

deliver a short message

1) Repetitive- 3rd drill we do in every defensive

practice is a turnover drill or circuit2) Be Specific- Known fact that whoever wins

the turnover battle usually wins the game

If a defense has great team pursuit and

tackles well turnovers will be created

Turnoversbull Delivery- Same set-up as previous two after

tackle drillcircuit 1 minute break with water

deliver a short message

1) Repetitive- 3rd drill we do in every defensive

practice is a turnover drill or circuit2) Be Specific- Known fact that whoever wins

the turnover battle usually wins the game

If a defense has great team pursuit and

tackles well turnovers will be created

Did our new motto workbull From the players perspective-

Question from post season evaluation was ldquoDo

you think the focal points we had in practice (ex

Pursuit tackle turnovers on defense) helped you

develop in game habits that allowed our team toreach our game goals

Every varsity player agreed that the focal

points we had in practice made things secondnature for the game

that helped encourage our mottophilosophybull For the most part as a staff we were very

consistent with following our rules and

routines

the new mottophilosophybull We won games while implementing this

mottophilosophy

Question from post season evaluation was ldquoDo

Pursuit tackle turnovers on defense) helped you

develop in game habits that allowed our team toreach our game goals

Every varsity player agreed that the focal
