S04E02: Corner Fundamentals, Press, Off, & Bail w/ Nick Rapone (Tampa Bay Bucs)

Season 4, Episode 2 is with Nick Rapone, Safeties Coach for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Although Coach Rapone currently handles Safeties, he's one of the best Corners coaches in the world, so I wanted him to join us about the fundamentals needed to play the position, as well as Press, Off, and Bail Techniques. Pardon the long stories at the beginning - Coach Rapone has profoundly affected my life with his generosity and kindness, so I wanted to tell him thank you, and share the stories with you.

Topics include:

How Nick Rapone Changed My Life Forever

Evaluating Scheme to Teach

Developing a Philosophy for Corners

The Power of Belief in What You Do
