Coach’s Note: The “score” above was calculated using Shannon Entropy. I calculated the entropy of the distribution of all seven major coverages. Then I normalized it on a 0-100 scale, where 100 represents maximum possible entropy (all equal).

This is the type of content I didn't know I needed Coach. Ever given any thought to writing a book on the defensive side of a team like Bobby Peters does for offense?
the philosophy maps are too cool, they'd be great to show how a coordinator has changed over the years or how teams adjus to playing a certain opponent or the impact of an injury/new player. Tons of possibilities!
