    When you coach the down block, are you coaching the head is upfield from the LOS or between the LOS and the defender? I.e. if I am down blocking to my left, which shoulder makes contact?

All of this was started at my daughters softball teams cookout when a fellow father struck up a conversation! Anyway, great podcast at the perfect time. Your videos and your responses to my emails have shaped me as a coach to be a beacon in our community.
