Show by Keith Grabowski

On this episode of D3 Coach and Coordinators of the Week , host Keith Grabowski brings together three Division III football coaches to break down offensive resilience, pressure defense, and practice structure. This multi-coach interview features John Carroll Offensive Coordinator Scott Phillips, St. Norbert Defensive Coordinator Rob Huberty, and UW-River Falls Head Coach Jake Wissing. Coach Scott Phillips opens the episode by outlining his “People, Alignment, Concepts” framework. He details how John Carroll adjusted to a three-high safety look to rush for nearly 300 yards and explains why teaching quarterbacks the big-picture concepts, instead of asking them to memorize one play at a time, gives them the tools to find answers when the picture changes on the field. Next, Defensive Coordinator Rob Huberty breaks down his “fun and fluid” defensive philosophy. He explains how giving players freedom to disguise their alignments through what he calls “Jimmy’s backyard,” while prioritizing assignment over alignment, allowed St. Norbert to use pressure to secure a marquee win. Finally, Head Coach Jake Wissing explains how UW-River Falls builds complete-game performance through daily defensive tackling circuits, dedicated three-day special teams technique periods, and offensive scoring periods.
