About this video
Tim Place finishes his five-part 4-2-5 series with the man pressure packages that made Urbana University's defense one of the NAIA's national leaders in sacks and rushing defense. Coach Place details three specific pressures in Urbana's terminology, Wolverine, Bull (also called Buckeye) and the 42 Shade Blitz Check, and ties each to the first-level movements and defensive coverages that go with it. Each package has been an effective defense for the Blue Knights, and the video shows how the pressures fit with the coverages behind them.
