[QUOTE="Technut1990, post: 758865, member: 3774"] Thanks Slugboy you really helped me look at it differently than I have been, its still worrisome given the fact it sounds like consistent defensive philosophy is the answer which essentially means staying with a DC long enough to develop routine. That’s an issue because we are in a results oriented world, which probably explains college footballs trend toward high scores. I guess it’s just a close your eyes and swing baseball analogy. If we give up 40 a game as we take 4-5 years for us to teach and fit players into a DC’s system then the only way he is around to see the result of developing his system is to have an offense that’s scoring 50 a game. tough position for a team rebuilding its entire offense. Man it sounds like we are in a catch 22 if you think about it. We as fans demand results but it’s totally against our nature to wait for the personnel and learning that’s required to get it. The number of DCs we’ve been through is probably the problem with one of our LBers. Being around for that number of defensive styles, coaching and philosophical approaches has screwed his head on backwards. I’m not trying to be super critical but that would explain the confused play that I see from him. Sounds like going back to basics is the only answer for our defense. We have to have the players for the defense via recruiting and then they have to start off with the fundamentals before the complicated stuff can be installed. That means we have to have a DC here long enough to do it. That may be a huge ask in today’s world. [/QUOTE]
