As part of our Southern Arizona Coaching Memories series with our All Sports Tucson podcast, our first guest is longtime Amphi defensive coordinator Ed Roman, who was an assistant of Vern Friedli's for 36 years. Co-host Matt Johnson, the head coach at Mountain View High School, and Andy and Javier Morales interview Roman about his experiences with the late Friedli and some of the legends he coached such as the Bates brothers (Michael, Marion and Mario), Riki Ellison and Jon Volpe. He also delves into his coaching style and the blitzing, attacking defenses he developed.
