Tennessee Vols' A.J. Johnson pushed for more | timesfreepress.com

Jancek admitted he wasn't shocked at the problem he said has been exposed the past two practices. After winning two consecutive practices, Tennessee's defense lost to the offense Thursday. Tackling, Jancek said, was a big reason why.

"You've got to drill," he added. "You've got to teach the fundamentals. They've got to go in and watch themselves on film and come back out continue to do it every day.

"That's the basis of playing great defense: You've got to be great tacklers."

I think I read somewhere yesterday that that's how the entire team had to enter the practice field, over and under the hurdles.

you see as the db's are coming in to the tackle dummy, coaches are talking about being too high, even though they are much lower than the lb's in their drill.
Just guessing, but I assume our coaches want our lb's to impede the progress of the ball carrier and wait for their teammates to come finish them off. You can't hold a ball carrier low. SEC rb's will run through leg tackles or lb's will whiff. I think that's why they appear a little high on the tackles in that drill.
Again, just guessing.

Way more energy by both the players and coaches in these spring videos than anything I ever saw from Dooley.

Yes that and causing fumbling as well if trying to hold them up. You can see the drill with the DB's practicing breaking the ball out of a ball carriers grip.

Watching some of Cincinnati's games from last year, their defense caused a lot turnovers.

With Tennessee beginning its spring break today, new head coach Butch Jones amped up his energy to keep the team focused for its final practice before some time off.

"He was on fire," Thigpen said, "and he didn't want us to lose any day's practice, so he came out on a mission."


He is just a coach and he is on fire..... lol

Lets be realistic, it looks like that particular drill is set up to put the LB in a touch situation. They are simulating open field tackling on a back who is cutting back. An inside backer will not see that too often. I will also say the guys who are missing most of the tackles will not spend too much time on the field on Saturday afternoons next fall. I will also say that some of the kids are too high, but you can clearly see the coaches correcting form. I wonder how much that occurred over last season. It is very difficult to correct poor tackling!

You guys think that maybe that the coaches don't want the guys going out there killing each other with physical tackling?
