Listen Later

We continue sharing our best and favorite episodes of 2024, and today, the focus is on the Accelerate Everything Series with host Dub Maddox.


I had the opportunity to visit Tulsa, Oklahoma, and watch Dub and his offensive staff in action.  I was highly impressed with their operations on game day and how they communicated and worked together on game day. Special thanks to Dub and Johnny Ulibari for their hospitality.  Please be sure to checkout Dub’s site R4football.com. He is one of the great thinkers in the game, and his R4 system can help you and your program win more games.


This episode is with Brian Vaughn, the linebacker coach at West Texas A&M. This is one of my favorites of the year. We are excited to have Dub back with Accelerate Everything in 2025 as part of the Coach and Coordinator Network.


Episode:

In our kickoff of Season 2 of the Accelerate Everything Series, host Dub Maddox is joined by the esteemed Brian Vaughn, the creator of the Blitzology blog and a highly experienced linebackers coach at West Texas A&M University. Together, they dive into defending condensed formations and more. In this insightful episode, Brian, with his wealth of knowledge and expertise, emphasizes the importance of precise communication and strategic adjustments for defensive success. They explore the dynamic nature of defensive schemes, the role of preparation, and adaptive solutions against high-volume offenses. 


The interview also covers offensive strategies, including RPOs and run-and-shoot offenses, highlighting post-snap reads and adapting launch points. Coach Vaughn's expert insights provide valuable resources for coaches to enhance their strategic toolbox.
