[QUOTE="Pharm Frog, post: 2637999, member: 34435"] I have multiple theories that are probably all false but here are a couple of more: We famously take a lot of high school offensive players and turn them into defenders. While this has served us well on many occasions, I think there’s a time-to-effectiveness trade-off and even more so with the 4-2-5. Also, the constant reliance on the sideline for calls (both O and D) I believe may actually stymie the development of depth ironically. If your players are that reliant on in-game situational coaching, you’ve got to get more and more players playing time so they can execute the orders to develop depth. Playing a position instinctively has got to be easier in my opinion. Just feels like over-coaching (but I’ve long felt this way...not just this season) [/QUOTE]
