And they will miss every tackle because their head is behind and not across. Love track and hip love staying square everything’s right but if that head is behind, you’re missing.

This drill may be one of the examples of why they’re so bad on defense and while they’re in the bottom half of the Big Ten

Eyes, Closing Space effectively and Tackling. If you can get those 3 you will have a fun LB core.

Great drill for ILB's to learn to leverage the ball, and fit correctly. Also, you can work same foot / same shoulder strike point without a lot of impact. Added a great conditioning drill below to work inside-out leverage on ball carrier. .Prizmatic Solutions always has great drills

LB Track the Hip Drill - The "track the hip" drill is designed to create a sense of urgency for linebackers to reach the ball carrier. - Coaches should emphasize closing ground quickly to minimize the ball carrier's gain. - Players must maintain a downhill angle rather than a flat angle to ensure they meet the runner as soon as possible. - The goal is for the defender to make the tackle before the ball carrier reaches a specific designated line, such as the midsection of the drill area. - Linebackers need to remain aggressive and attack the ball carrier while maintaining proper leverage. - Using a "near foot, near foot" technique is essential for the tackler to successfully maintain leverage during the play.

This is a great variation for hip thrusts. Either leave people alone in the gym or stay home.
