Dave Christensen’s sideline impact as Wyoming’s head coach (2009-2010) and Missouri’s offensive coordinator (2011-2012) extended to defensive tempo calls. Christensen would huddle with D-coordinators after his offense’s series, charting pace adjustments to let defenders rest or keep them hot. On the sideline, he consulted dual clipboards for down-and-distance splits, ensuring coordinated game-flow between both units. His calm delivery under pressure and emphasis on situational ball control made his sideline strategic and composed.
