Exactly...we were all "mad" about the lack of tackling and now we are going to pretend like its all good.
Personally...I don't like a lot of live tackling in practice. I am a firm believer that, especially by college, you are either good at tackling or you are not.
But isn't tackling a fundamental skill? Something that can be improved with coaching?
That said, it's been refreshing to make it through spring camp with fewer injuries than we've seen in the past.
Up to a point...I think like FT shooting...you kind of "are who you are" at a certain point...if not...we could all be hitting 100% of our shots.
Lets face it...tackling is one of two things...wrapping up or taking out the legs.
I don't know if you need 100 reps of tackling 3 times a week at the college level to figure that out.
I have done it both ways...seasons with tons of tackling and seasons with almost no tackling...both have worked great and both have been horrible.
