Today on Coach and Coordinator Podcast, we welcome in Joey Didier. He is currently the co-defensive coordinator, defensive backs coach, and co-recruiting coordinator at the University of Saint Francis (Indiana). On this episode, tune in and learn how you can incorporate new schemes and concepts into your defense by utilizing your players strengths.
