I know that Manny was teaching the new Rugby style tackling. This has started to be introduced to reduce concussions by putting your head behind the opponent. There are a few versions they teach, but I think it has resulted in our D being the worst in the nation.
I was taught to bring my head across the body and drive through the ball carrier. When you see great tackling defences that’s the way it looks. I didn’t see Georgia wrapping around their knees and doing a gator roll.
I’m not sure if there are any tackling videos from Spring Camp, but I sure hope that Kevin Steele is coaching them to tackle like an old school Cane D
