Introducing the 2-3 Defense

When regular defenses wouldn’t work for his team, Coach Hicks turned to his studies to create a new look defense for the Baltimore area.

On this episode Joe and Daniel are joined by Coach Hicks to talk through his 2-3 defense, why he made it, and what the numbers said about how it turned a program around.

What is the 2-3 Defense?

• It is a 2-High Safety, 3 Defensive lineman defense
• Primarily run Cover 2 variations, such as Cover 2-man.
• Similar to the 3-4, but using true Safeties as OLB
