From pop warner league to middle and High school football, coaches stress the importance of tackling. Wrapping your man up and stopping his progress.
Here at the university of Louisville, for some reason we teach arm tackling and trying to blow a man up with an amazing hit.
Our special teams is the worst at it because they seem to want tbe big crowd pleasing hit as opposed to just stopping the return guy. It has cost us many 100 yard returns over the years.
Our defense againt Houston would penetrate the backfield and watch the running back run right past them. It happened at least 20 times...
Until our defense learns how to wrap up and stop the progress of the ball carrier, our collission course will be a dream...
The big bit philosophy being taught has us 0-2......
I don't care if Joe Montana is our starting QB, we need a defense that at least can wrap up and stop progress....
We are excellent at throwing guys forward for extra yards, hitting guys and falling as they run by, or whiffing on guys trying to get the big hit..
Someone has to teach our defense how to tackle.........
