The grouping and confrontation training of the offensive team is underway. Lu Yiqi directed Nelson alone to form an opponent with four second-tier defensive players; Augustus led other wide receivers and tight ends to stand on one side, watching with all his attention.

Nelson gradually noticed something strange:

On the surface, the coach's tactics are aimed at the defensive and offensive groups respectively; but in actual situations, the situation of offensive and defensive confrontation has different possibilities.

Sometimes, Nelson is surrounded by multiple players; sometimes, Nelson forms a one-on-one confrontation; sometimes, Nelson runs with routes to throw away the defensive players to win gaps; sometimes, Nelson forms a breakthrough with speed and strength; sometimes, Nelson has to face the joint defense area...

Such things.

The entire running route covers the entire court, from short passes to middle passes to long passes, from left wing to center and right wing, from the position on the verge of outbound to the line of short passes to the quarterbacks in the stadium, all the corners of the court can be explored, truly showing the routine of running routes.

It's like... the tactical manual compiled by the coach two weeks ago.

Nelson performed very easily in some routes; Nelson was not very adaptable to some situations; Nelson was able to burst out potential.

Gradually, Nelson had a vague understanding, but immediately, he overturned his thoughts:

At first, Nelson felt that the coach should be tapping his potential and understanding his strengths and weaknesses through different routes; but with the progress of training, Nelson felt that things were not that simple, and he could vaguely capture something but couldn't catch it.

The feeling of being present and being unsure is very annoying.

"Suspend. Rest for fifteen minutes, and then start the second training class." After the thirty-minute training class, Lu Yiqi announced his disbandment.

But Lu Yiqi still did not relax and first walked to four second-tier defensive players.

"You will discuss the defensive tactics just now. The entire defensive mode is different from the regional defense and counter-defense. When should the quarterback be predicted, and when should the position of the wide receiver be predicted, some subtle changes in the offensive team are actually all hints. You can discuss it internally first, and then if there is any problem, it can be raised in the tactics class of the defense team, or the second training class later."

The four second-tier defensive players were panting and looked at each other, all of them were stunned: Do they have homework?

Then, Lu Yiqi walked towards Augustus and the wide receiver group again.

"In the second training class, you will take turns to play. I will also transfer the second line of defense to conduct group confrontation training. The lines that Nelson tried just now are actually basic lines, which is very suitable for Wujushang offense; but more importantly, you should pay attention to whether the opponent is a regional defense or a counter-position defense, and then how you should find gaps. I look forward to you having your own ideas."

The wide receivers and tight ends were in agitation, and they were just envious of Nelson's treatment of "training alone". One person was surrounded by four defensive second-tier players. Such "honor" enjoyment made them unable to help but be glad. Now it's his turn: Is it a surprise or not? Is it unexpected?

While waiting for Lu Yiqi to turn and leave, the wide receiver and the tight end all looked at Augustus with a sad face, like a hungry little chicken, "Coach Phillips!"

Augustus could only look up at the sky, "Don't look at me, I can't do anything. You know, if you don't train seriously now, you may have to double later."

"Ah..." Painful wails came one after another, and then Lu Yiqi stopped and turned around. The shouts and howlings came to an abrupt end.

Lu Yiqi walked towards Nelson again, and the guys from the wide receiver's close end exchanged their eyes for each other's pain, howling silently, and the picture felt a little funny, which made Augustus almost unable to hold back and tighten the corners of his mouth to prevent himself from laughing out loud.

"How does it feel?" Lu Yiqi handed the kettle to Nelson.

Nelson's whole body was soaked with sweat, as if he had just been fished out of the water. He poured half a pot of water in big mouthfuls, and then he recovered a little bit. He still held the kettle in his left hand, and his head had begun to run. He did not answer casually, but thought seriously.

"Some routes focus more on confrontation. I can suppress the cornerback to form an advantage, but once I fall into a double-team or even a more serious situation, my thinking in a chaotic situation is not clear, and the success rate will drop significantly."

"Some routes focus more on throwing away. I use absolute speed to surpass the cornerback or safety guards, form position advantages, create a gap in the ball, and can seize more opportunities in the far-reaching areas, and catch the ball more easily."

"Coach, you mean, should I focus more on speed than power?"

In just a few words, you can feel Nelson's contradictions. He can vaguely see the overall route pattern, but he still lacks a systematic idea, so the final conclusion is relatively one-sided.

Simply put, the interpretation of tactics is still not three-dimensional enough.

Nelson has shown initial potential despite this - don't forget that he just transferred to a wide receiver two years ago and missed the entire season due to injury last year.

"Yes, not right." Lu Yiqi nodded and shook his head again, "Recalling carefully how the last pass in the opening game was completed?"

How could Nelson forget that catch? That was definitely the highlight of his NCAA career, and now I think about it carefully, from different angles:

Take the lead in rushing forward in a straight line to form confrontation, use your body to create an absolute advantage, and after forming a breakthrough, use speed and strength to further establish an advantage, and finally get rid of the defensive players at absolute speed.

"Speed ​​and power!" All the confusions in Nelson's mind were integrated, and his eyes lit up, but he was immediately filled with confusion again, "Coach, but... isn't this more suitable for black wide receivers? Shouldn't I focus more on the feel of the ball and the route of running?"

"No, no, no, of course it is not the case." Lu Yiqi shook his head repeatedly, "No one stipulates how wide receivers should be trained, because every player has his own talents and characteristics. Only tailor-made training plans can truly tap potential. The so-called white wide receivers and black wide receivers are just relative routines, and for geniuses, those routines are not applicable."

"..." Nelson was stunned for a moment, not reacting for a while, and then he noticed Lu Yiqi's firm eyes, which fell on him. Then he pointed to his nose in surprise, "Are you talking about me? Is I a genius? Coach, are you sure?"
Chapter completed!
