Game day success starts with proper drill work as illustrated in this DVD by Hawkeye Assistant Coach Ron Aiken. Packed with drills, Coach Aiken emphasizes technique, hand and foot quickness, hand strength, separation and reaction for defensive linemen. These in-season and off-season drills provide the building blocks for developing quality line play. Aiken carefully explains each drill and its purpose and uses game footage to show how fundamental work pays off in big games. Most of these drills include variations as well as repetitions and time segment suggestions. Each drill underscores key teaching points that allow for building and improving valuable skills for linemen. These one and two-man drills can be beneficial to players at all levels. Aiken has molded the Hawkeye defensive line into one of the nation's finest and has been a key ingredient in the program's success. This insightful presentation provides a path to success for your defensive linemen, your offensive potential, and overall success of your football team.
