It has been done before.

Another possibility albeit a lot less likely is the change from a 4 man front to a 3 man front. We don't appear to have the bigger bodies to do this. However, other teams have done this before with a lot less beef. Anything is possible.

I feel certain the more likely option is that they will land another DT or 2.

That's pretty much Woody's approach, if you recall: a three man front with smaller, quicker DLs backed by large, aggressive LBs. This has worked with spectacular results at Army. Could have at Tech too.

Ah, well. Thanks TFG, so much.

Signing FCS players and low-level small school FBS talent is NOT going to make us better as a football team. We have NO defensive linemen at all... The answer is not FCS players and stragglers nobody else is trying to sign. We have to get better in a hurry on defense and secure some solid DLs, LBs, and Dbs. Every time we made a tackle in the secondary the DB got hurt. It was embarrassing. All of them were made out of glass.

So Coach Pope posted a tease on X with four bees - Did we pick up another DE Commit from the portal?

Finkley and Grace are both DEs who have been linked to Tech recently. I’d guess one of those two. Finkley is a guy Texas fans have gushed over since announcing for the portal as a big locker room guy who just got recruited over with REALLY good talent.
