In this episode, we share a clinic segment from Dan Carrel, Co-Defensive Coordinator and Linebackers Coach at Coastal Carolina. Coach Carrel delves into essential elements of teaching run defense, such as using consistent language and helping players understand formations and distributions. He shares his insight gained from experience into how to build run fits from back to front and strategize defensive play calls focusing on alignment, leverage, numbers, and aggression. 

He explains how to make the most of your personnel and set up play calls to defend against runs while gaining an advantage in coverage.
