Carm58IFYYK šDo you find yourself standing in front of the refrigerator at 3am eating cheese curds six at a time thinking up new techniques or hand/footwork that will change your coaching forever?

GCavalloBest Resource for DefenseCoach Vass and his guests go into incredible detail about all aspects of defense. Talking about all fronts, all coverage families and bridging the gap of what the top defenses in the country do. They get into great detail and explain incredibly well the "why" and "how" of what makes them successful on defense. Also can help you figure out what you need to do to use the same scheme or techniques fit for you. Get your pen or device ready to take lots of notes.
-
allabouttheU305Very insightfulI am new to coaching, so a lot of the content is over my head, but overall a very informative podcast for anyone. My only issue is the length of some of the episodes.

The users plea,ExcellentFantastic Resource

HO2008Listeners Donāt Deserve This GoodnessBut it is available to us anyway. Thanks. Managing 11 people is a challenge. Defensive football is no different and this series explores techniques, tactics and strategies for these purposes. There is a take away here for anyone interested in the human side of coaching anything along with the particulars of football theories and practices.

HawnJobLearn to ListenFirst off I will say Vass has great guests. Thatās about all I can say thatās positive. Vass spends more time talking about his experience and his life then he does interviewing his guests. I subscribed to this to hear Coach K (Texas DC) talk about his scheme and defensive theology. Instead I listened to the interviewer talk about himself the whole time. I could feel and hear the frustration from Coach K being forced to listen to a guy explain his defense to him. Then Vass would is that right? Coach K would say yes then Vass would go right back into talking about whatever. At one point he was literally talking about all the questions he had lined up, all the people you talk to to get info, and all the film he watched to be prepared for the interview. If I could break this down to percentages I would say it is 45% Vass talking 5% interviewer talking, 45% Vass talking about absolutely nothing anyone listening would care about. It seems Vass is just really arrogant and wants to show how much he knows. To be fair maybe he is like a kid with a puppy who wants so badly for it to be safe he ends up killing it by wrapping it in bubble wrap? Either way itās disappointing and I wonāt be back. If I had to guess I would bet his coachās wonāt be back for another āinterviewā.

Sag7319Terrible InterviewerPodcast has great guests. Unfortunately, Vass talks more than the person he is interviewing. Tries to show how smart he is. Ruins the entire podcast.

Br1ck Squ4d tr4pp1nBest scheme podcast Iāve heardStumbled across the interview with Bud Foster and it was absolutely spectacular.
-
Coach ByrdDefensive Think TankCoach Vass has put together the most phenomenal and advanced defensive podcast. Itās serves so many purposes. From his defensive talks with legends like Wade Phillips, Bud Foster, and Dean Pees. Also great conversation with some of college and high school football best and brightest coaches. They discuss a variety of defensive topics and solutions. I have always enjoyed Coach Vass approach of āteach a man to fishā to show you how and why he comes up with his solutions and answers on defense rather than just give you a answer. I canāt wait to see how much this podcast grows in 2021 and years to come.

Sean BrusoMore than a podcastWhat Coach Vass has created is a culture and a network to grow coaches and make them better coaches and men. Coach and his guests give us something to think about and take back to make our programs and kids more successful. The lessons derived and relationships made from this podcast show why this is such a powerful tool. The stories told by the guests also are phenomenal and pull back the curtain to some of the best programs in America.
