[QUOTE="Techster, post: 261955, member: 360"] That's why I like a 34 for GT. I think there's so much more versatility with 34 OLBs, and more angles of attack in blitzes. Coverages and blitz schemes are more malleable in a 34 because of what you can do with the 4 LBs as opposed to 3 LBs. Unless you get some STUD DEs that can drop and play in space, which to be honest GT will struggle to get because those are few and far between and the ones that exist end up at places like 'Bama or Ohio State, the DL personnel of a 4-3 is limited in what they can do. Offenses now are tilted towards "space" players. WRs, TEs, RBs that can act like receivers. Not to mention the increase popularity of having dual threat QBs. If you don't have defensive personnel that can handle playing in space, you're really at a disadvantage. 34 personnel give you one more guy who can play in space and minimizes the guys who have can't (the DL). Obviously there are positives and negatives to base personnel of a 34 and 43, but given GT's recruiting and where offenses are going these days, a 34 IMO makes more sense for us. [/QUOTE]
