Modern defense is not the 4-3 vs the 3-4 but the 2-4 vs the 3-3
The 3-4 and 4-3 are antiquated terms, what types of fronts are teams really playing these days and what are the differences?

It looks like we have a DT/Noseguard coach, a DE/OLB coach, and ILB coach, and we need to add a secondary coach.
We’re retooling the entire defense. We’re probably changing the scheme.
When I heard we might have two LB coaches, I thought it was impossible—made no sense with our scheme. But, we’re getting a different scheme, apparently.

I believe good coaches design their defense around their players' skills and the offenses they are defending against. We will see what Santucci does with the guys we have. He looks good from my POV.

I like the hire and agree it looks like we could be running a different scheme, which after the last few years I'm ok to try something.

I wonder if maybe we bring on a graduate asst. for DB along with one of the incoming coaches, possibly the new DC, also doing the DBs. We moved our 2 DB coaches to the office for the bowl game and let a couple of GAs handle the DB coaching and at the time I wondered if maybe CBK was looking to move one of them to a DB coach position. CBK is all about giving young up and coming coaches opportunities. This is what Saban did when he brought in Kirby originally and he eventually became his DC. Does sound like there may be 3 coaches for the front 6/7.

Only hesitancy is why isn’t he the DC at A&M right now with Mike Elko if he’s a great coach? Key hit a home run with Buster last year, if he can hit a double with this hire, we’re going to be really good.

Looks good? Kinda underselling the magnitude of this humongously important titanic earth shaking hire, don’t cha-think?
Let’s see a little enthusiasm here.

I figured there would be way more input over this hire considering the forum was foaming at the mouth for any news regarding a DC
From what handful of duke football I watched this past season, I came away thinking their defense was tough. Stingy. I'm excited to get this guy. Hard to be worse than our d was last year.
Hopefully he can bring in some d lineman.

I'm pretty excited about this hire! Santucci is the guy I was hoping for - he had good defenses at Dook...AT DOOK!!!! Let that sink in.
With the new coaches, I'm confident that we'll see a significant improvement on that side of the ball - including recruitment. If we get the defense performing in the top half of the nation, we might start looking like a serious program again!

Yes there’s still the DB coach slot to fill.
