As a former collegiate Nose Guard [Interior Defensive Tackle], I concur... The blocking schemes and audibles were always impressive to me... My school played and aggressive, slanting 3-4 and I was amazed when offenses managed to block our stunts and blitzes... I'm happy I got to turn my brain off and just play fast... I saved my thinking for the Engineering Building...

Some of this I already knew like the gaps. Some I didn't know the tech's on D. But all of it was informative. I stopped playing football in middle school so I only ever got the basics of this stuff. I was just too small to continue playing any longer. In HS I was only 5'9 140lbs and no I wasn't very fast so playing a spot like RB or WR wasn't really an option. When I quit my favorite position was DE. But as far as coaching went I just knew if I was blitzing or holding my spot. Extremely basic.
