In this episode of The Give, we feature a free lesson from LFG Clinic with Kamau Dumas, secondary coach and recruiting coordinator at Monmouth University.

Dumas shares his approach to defensive back development, centered on one core challenge of the position: every mistake is exposed. His teaching focuses on helping players carry the lesson from the meeting room to the field, with an emphasis on identity, pre-snap thought process, technique, and habits that transfer to game day.

In this lesson:

How Dumas builds a DB room around swagger, discipline, competitiveness, and toughness
Why pre-snap understanding shapes the way a player handles the rep
The role of eyes, feet, and leverage in consistent DB play
Why practice habits show up on game day
How his “class to grass” teaching progression helps players apply coaching on the field
