About this video

Jo Nixon
Defensive Coordinator
Langston University (OK)
WN-08111

A proponent of the 3-4 attacking defense, Langston University's Defensive Coordinator Jo Nixon explains both the concepts and strategy of the 3-4 in this DVD. Langston finished sixth in the nation last fall among all NAIA colleges allowing only 14 touchdowns. Coach Nixon details the responsibilities for each player in the 3-4 and talks specifically about what attributes are needed to maximize the effectiveness of the 3-4.

In this DVD, you will learn from Coach Nixon:
* The personnel and alignment for the 3-4 attacking defense.
* Responsibilities of the D-line positions, the inside and outside linebackers and the defensive secondary.
* How to utilize the concepts of the 3-4, regardless of your base defense.
* Why the Rover position must be your best athlete on the field.

Coach Nixon:
"This DVD includes an understanding of the basic concepts of the 3-4 attacking defense. You can run it very effectively with a Cover 2 shell. Also included is a position-by-position description of what kind of personnel is needed for this defense."

This DVD contains extensive use of game film.

2008-29 minutes.
