Discourse on Defense: Old School Defenses, New School Names

Description

This is a conversation, discourse or discussion about how the transformation of defenses over time have given way to more flexible defensive systems. Additionally, I speak about the misunderstadning of the 353 and why I believe the 353 is flexible enough to handle the wide variety of offensive systems in todays game.

Thank you for taking the time to listen, I trust you will benefit and that this adds value to your coaching journey.
