The coaches also share practical tips on sequencing the defense, film sessions, dynamic drill starts, and the importance of building trust with players.———Vaz: “Go in with a really open mind... watch what's happening to really manipulate to create the affordances you want.”Jefferson: “They need to see it and feel it and understand it ... and make a few mistakes before you can even start to talk about coverage solutions.”———Subscribe to the 🔗 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Idaho Basketball Coaching Podcast newsletter⁠⁠⁠⁠.
