Episode 169 - How To Coach Linebacker Reads

There are many different ways to coach Linebacker Keys. They all have their merits. None of them are perfect.  This is probably the most asked question I get at Joe Daniel Football. What should our Linebacker reads be?  It's pretty simple. What do you like the best? What gets your kids going the fast?  You need to decide how much room for error you want to leave. How important is it for the keys to be right on paper?  What your kids can process will be a determining factor. What can they learn? What can they execute? What gets them going fast?  In this episode, I'll go through several different options for coaching your Linebacker reads. Decide what works best for you and your players!
