@lebron2goated@coltonedwardsFB From what I’ve seen they gotta fill out the waiver form to stay in the old system allowing a red shirt but gotta be done by July 21st
I don’t care what size you are at corner…..A football player is a FOOTBALL PLAYER! End of discussion! Going into year 10 as a “undersized” corner 🤷🏾♂️ Dont let the narrative change your thoughts..
Cover 3 remains one of the most widely used coverages in football because it provides a strong balance between defending the pass and supporting the run
With three defenders responsible for the deep thirds and four underneath defenders controlling the Hook/Curl and Curl/Flat zones, the coverage is designed to eliminate explosive plays, keep the ball in front of the defense, and force offenses to execute long, mistake-free drives
From a coaching perspective, success in Cover 3 comes down to discipline, communication, route recognition, and proper zone spacing
Defenders must understand route distribution, carry vertical threats through their zones, and rally to the football once the ball is thrown underneath
Modern Cover 3 concepts often incorporate pattern-match principles, requiring defenders to react to routes rather than simply dropping to landmarks
From a scouting perspective, Cover 3 places a premium on instincts, awareness, range, and football intelligence. Evaluators are looking for defenders who can process information quickly, play with proper leverage, and consistently execute their assignments within the structure of the coverage
🔹 Key Coaching Points:
• Eliminate explosive plays and force offenses to be patient
• Maintain proper leverage and spacing between zones
• Carry vertical routes and communicate route distribution
• Rally to the football and tackle in space
• Match route concepts without compromising zone integrity
🔹 What Scouts Are Evaluating:
• Safety range, instincts, and anticipation
• Cornerback discipline and ability to protect the deep third
• Linebacker route recognition and seam-carry ability
• Curl/Flat defenders who can transition quickly between run and pass
• Overall communication, awareness, and football IQ
🔹 Common Cover 3 Stress Points:
• Four Verticals and seam routes
• Flood and Sail concepts
• Curl/Hook windows underneath
• RPOs and play-action conflicts
• Communication breakdowns versus motion and formations
First week of summer ball‼️Excited for the Season‼️ All D1,D2,NAIA Coaches I am at @GavilanRamsFB My head Coach is @Joffre74 feel free to contact my Coach or myself‼️
Coaches, these are routes I use to attack various zones on the field. It’s essential that offensive skill players understand & execute these concepts effectively.
Players,
If your coach moves you to a different position, don’t take it personally.
He’s probably not moving you away from the field, he’s trying to find the spot that gives you the best chance to get on it.
Trust the process. Compete.
using a pvc pipe as a stabilizer, really focuses on keeping the upfield shoulder down & pointed at receiver.
key:
1.) point shoulder down.
2.) use field lines to align your shoulder with wr.
3.) when transitioning, stay on the line or get back on the line as quick asap.
🚨 HIGH SCHOOL CORNERBACKS 🚨
Your highlight film should show far more than just interceptions or pass breakups. College coaches want to evaluate complete cornerbacks who can consistently compete, think fast, and impact the game in multiple ways
A strong CB film should highlight:
✅ Press man technique and ability to stay in phase
✅ Smooth backpedal, transition quickness, and hip fluidity
✅ Ball skills and finishing ability at the catch point
✅ Recovery speed and overall athleticism
✅ Open field tackling and run support toughness
✅ Zone awareness, route recognition, and football IQ
✅ Discipline, leverage, and proper footwork
✅ Competitiveness against top receivers
✅ Consistent production and effort every snap
✅ Special teams value and versatility
Defensive backs today are expected to do everything. Coaches want corners who can cover in man, understand zone concepts, tackle in space, communicate, and eliminate explosive plays
Keep your film clean, detailed, and position specific. Show complete reps, not just the result. Coaches evaluate technique, instincts, body control, effort, and how you respond under pressure
🎥 Keep film around 3–5 minutes
🎥 Lead with your best reps immediately
🎥 Include press, off man, zone, run support, and special teams clips
🎥 Add verified measurables, stats, and contact information
