On The Coaching 101 Podcast, hosts Daniel Chamberlain and Kenny Simpson are joined by Florida coach PJ Gibbs to discuss fixing defensive coverages through “addition and subtraction,” including separating scheme problems from execution and personnel issues. After a Buddha quote on staying present, Simpson shares a Fieldhouse one-off on a structured halftime adjustment card and film review, and the hosts plug sponsors. Gibbs explains building multiple coverages in camp, game-planning on Monday, and subtracting by Wednesday if it doesn’t look right; Simpson emphasizes knowing scheme weaknesses, correcting wrong numbers with schematic answers, and addressing technique and personnel with drills and lineup changes. They cover when to add opponent-specific tags or simulated looks, when to simplify to avoid busts, and how to adjust via preparation, clear verbiage, small changes (alignment/reads), and weeklong install and rep progression. Gibbs highlights his program’s defensive success (5.4 points per game) and directs coaches to fbcoachgibbs.com and Gibbs Defense Lab.
