Episode 149 is based on a discussion from our private JDFB Insider forum. Michael asked for advice heading into his first year as a Defensive Coordinator.

It sounded like a great topic to me. I sent my own response, flipped through the advice from other coaches, and started making a list.

I was shooting for 8 tips for 1st year coordinators. Either side of the ball, let's not limit it. 

Instead I ended up with 15 before I stopped myself and turned the microphone on. It is Super Bowl Sunday afterall, I don't need to be doing this all day.

And here it is. 15 tips for 1st year coordinators. And head coaches. And assistant coaches.

OK, these are tips any football coach should probably pay attention to.
