[QUOTE="33jacket, post: 210703, member: 628"] lou young in his D schemes at tech was like Matt Ryan in Shanahan's. There is a reason he has made a small NFL career and others haven't. He was a square peg in a round hole in groh's scheme. He is a 2,3,4 deep boundary corner that was stuck playing man field alot in 3rd and long. Groh played a ton of man in 3rd and long. He played more zone stack on 1st and 2nd down to stop the run; and if you watch the tape young was fine there. He was exposed in pass D calls. Then when Roof came aboard, they asked lou to play even more man. Ted plays alot of man free and zone under. he plays a bit of 2deep, very little 3 deep or quarters. Again, not a great fit for lou. In ted's scheme Lou would have been a better nickel CB on the inside since that spot zones alot and he can keep his eyes downfield. Roof likes to play man on the backend alot, but doesn't always blitz while doing it....that means the CB has to lock down...lou was not good at that... then you move to the carolina panthers....who almost are always in quarters or cover 2 zone...and I think lou fits that nicely and was able to stay around on the team. He simply isn't a field man corner.... [/QUOTE]
