How do defenses determine how many men to put in the box? How much of it is about the opponent run game vs the opponent's RBs? "More people doesn't equal better run defense." Really interesting answer from Mike Macdonald

Good defense is pretty simple: Be vocal, urgent communication, eye discipline, do your job, and pursue the ball. --
Dennard Wilson on the defensive mistakes in Week 5. I appreciate Wilson’s candor with the media.

Jim Mora gave some insight earlier this week in the areas where the defense needs to improve 👇 📹@CSURams

Greatness requires the ability to look in the mirror. Anthony Edwards said… “The thing about watching film is you gotta be willing to accept the bad. I want to see what I can do better.” Self-awareness + humility = growth. xitter.cf/WolvesClips/status/191…

I love coaching where I coach. Imagine being a high school athlete and your coach tells you that on Friday nights you get to play RB, LB, return kicks and punt the ball. You get to play 120+ snaps under the lights! Compared to that kid who plays at a large high school with 120 kids on the roster and get's to play only one side of the ball. Maybe 60 snaps if he is lucky. Play 10 games. Athlete #1 plays 1,200 snaps. Athlete #2 plays 600 snaps. Smaller school football is where it's at. But coach, I gotta play for a big school so I can get noticed by colleges. Nah... How about you play at a smaller school where you play 120+ plays per game, show how versatile you are and dominate your division. College coaches will find you. I promise you that.

#Ravens HC Jesse Minter on his players communicating pre-snap: “You can’t play this game quietly, and you can’t play this game with doubt, and you can’t play this game without knowing what you’re doing. And so, I know from a defensive standpoint, we should be the loudest, most crazy, obnoxious, communicative unit in the history of football.” (🎥 @Ravens)

You don't win by wanting it more. You win by: 1. Preparing more 2. Competing harder 3. Holding higher standards 4. Showing up when it's hard 5. Doing the work nobody sees That's the will to win.

Football is cool.
When schools invest in football, they’re investing in culture. The accountability, leadership, and community buy‑in don’t just lift the team—they elevate academics, arts, and every other program. In a time when real community is fading, that shared identity matters more than ever
