Andy Buh - Inside Linebacker Play
by IHSFCA Illinois High School Football Coaches AssociationDescription
Inside linebackers are typically the mind, soul, and heart of a defense. They're usually the ones calling plays on defense, guarding the middle of the field against the pass and the run. Their role can change depending on the scheme the defensive coordinator wants to run but their value doesn't.
Middle linebackers are among the most physically demanding positions on the field. Several qualities are necessary for success, including size, strength, speed, toughness, and intelligence. The middle linebacker is like the quarterback of a 4-3 defense.
In this course, Coach Andy Buh discusses the inside linebacker play. He breaks down into base techniques and fundamentals used at the University of Illinois, using the same teaching progression as day 1 teachings. Everything from stance to tackling to drills is covered here.
