The Think Tank - Creating Defensive Structure - Grant Caserta, Mike Fox, Eric Kasperowicz

Coach and Coordinator Podcast

In this episode of the Think Tank presented by Modern Football Technology, three defensive coaches discuss the importance of creating a structured terminology that is easy for players to learn while providing the necessary tools for effective game planning.

Ferris State Linebacker Coach Grant Caserta, SUNY Brockport Defensive Coordinator Mike Fox, and Mars HS (PA) Head Coach Eric Kasperowicz join the Think Tank to share their insight.

They explore strategies for adjusting coverage based on offensive formations, the use of wristband systems for communication, and the need to simplify complex defensive calls. The conversation also explores the significance of dictating play through defensive strategies and adapting to various offensive looks, culminating in a discussion on disguising coverage and pre-snap movement.
