Will, Mike, or Sam 2

Terrell, enraged at Jeremy, sternly says, " I don't know what you're trying to do, but I will not stand for your shenanigans. This is my team, and you're not going to fine me. It would be best if you let me do my job and left me to run the team. "

Jeremy, disgusted with Terrell, replies, " Get it through your thick head that it's not your team, it's my team, and I am letting you run the team this year. You're walking on thin ice from now on, I WILL be fining you the bare minimum with possible termination, and if you keep pushing your luck with me, I'll take it to the news outlets that you were fined or fired due to conduct detrimental to the team. You'll be lucky to get another coaching job after that. Now get ready for practice. "

Terrell Hillis, huffing and puffing, turns and heads to the locker room, muttering under his breath.

Jeremy heads to where Alexandra is sitting at. Once Jeremy gets to Alexandra, he sits down and apologizes, " I'm so sorry for that interaction; you should never be treated like that. I'm dealing with him, and I promise he will not do that again. I know you can handle yourself; I just had to jump in because he's, unfortunately, my employee, and I wasn't sure what he would do. Thank you, by the way, for going with what I was saying about the partnership; that worked out perfectly with Terrell. "

Alexandra looks at Jeremy, saying, " I should thank you for being a buffer. I don't know what his problem is, but I think there's something seriously wrong with him because he went over the top over something so small. " Alexandra then smiles and continues, " I appreciate that you through curveball at him to show him that his actions could have significant consequences, so I had no problem going along with your partnership statement. It was amusing, and it was interesting to feel like I was on the same page as you. "

Jeremy smiled and reached down to grab a bottle of 86-proof whiskey. He pulled up the bottle imported into a glass with three cold whiskey stones and poured about three fingers worth right before practice.

Alexandra looked at Jeremy with disapproval and said, " Is it a good idea to drink that if you're coaching me today? I'm not trying to judge or say anything, but I never had any coach drink alcohol before practice or a game. Did you do this before games as a player? "

Jeremy smiles angrily and says, " I didn't drink while I was a player; I started drinking after I retired to deal with watching football. I hope you never have to have this feeling. I only have this one glass to get through practice. We'll do a light training today and get deeper into training."

Alexandra, not satisfied nor happy about Jeremy's response, went along with it for now, but she was going to keep an eye on the drinking.

Jeremy then asked her, " Which linebacker position have you played, and which one do you want to play going forward? "

Jeremy takes a sip while Alexandra replies, " I've been playing the Sam position, and I enjoy playing that; I would like to continue being the Sam linebacker. "

Jeremy sarcastically laughs, saying, " As a Quarterback, I hate you. We'll see what we do to keep you at the Will position in your career. I will tell you tho, in the indoor football world, there's not a Sam linebacker, just a Mike and a Will linebacker, really with an occasional blitzing. So the plan will be to as a Sam linebacker and teach you to be an indoor Mike or Will linebacker. Does that sound good to you? "

A Will linebacker or also called the weakside linebacker, lines up on the backside of the formations, mostly blitzing and making sure that no running plays gash through the weakside of the defense. The Will linebacker is usually the fastest and used in coverage

The Mike Linebacker or also called the middle linebacker, is essentially the quarterback of the defense. They will relay information to the other positions on defense to best set up the defense for what the offense will bring. A Mike linebacker will blitz and go into pass coverage. They must be the jack of all trades as a linebacker.

A Sam linebacker or also called the Strong side linebacker, typically will line up on the side of the right end or whatever side has the most players lined up. They usually are to cover the tight end or running back and can also disrupt the tight end at the point of attack. They are usually the better tackler and are used in the pass rush.

Alexandra nods in agreement, and Jeremy continues, " Do you have a workout schedule, or do you need one? Do you like working out? "

Alexandra responds, " I do like to work out, but I don't have a workout schedule because I haven't figured out one that works for what I want to do. I want one that'll help me be a better linebacker along with helping me reach my goals, but I don't want to be too muscular or fit as I like how I look."

Jeremy thinks for a bit, then says," Ok, I'll figure out a workout schedule for you that works for what you want to do without messing up your body. "

As practice starts, Jeremy and Alexandra go over and dissect plays as they happen. Jeremy shows Alexandra what the quarterback is doing during the pre-snaps and asks her what she needs to relay to the defense, so it can adjust to what the offense is going to do during the pre-snap.

Jeremy has Alexandra analyze not only what the linebackers were doing right or wrong but also the whole defense. He tests her on what she thinks the offense will run, a pass or run play and what play she would run to counter the offense. Practice ends, and the coaches and players head to the locker room.

Jeremy hands Alexandra his keys to the VIP room for her to get changed for training. Alexandra comes out wearing a sports bra, a crop top jersey, and athletic leggings.

While Alexandra is stretching, Jeremy speaks up, saying, " Since I'm going to be coaching you and we're going to be spending more time together. Why don't you tell me about yourself to be able to coach you better? "

Alexandra looks up while warming up and replies, " Well, where do I start? "
