New-look linebackers a success

[uslol'dog]

I'd like you to elaborate on these adjustments proving this staff can have success going forward, with regards to how important the abilities to evolve are.

I think the reason this thread hasn't taken off is because of the timing of the game. Personally, when games are on the weekend, I have a lot more time to be all in. With the game being on Tuesday, it was cram in the game and continue normal life at my house. Too many busy people under one roof who rely on me. At any rate, that's got something to do with it, I presume.

I was infamously critical of Mark Hudspeth for 3 weeks, so I'm obligated to give credit where it's due. I believe a telling sign in a truly gifted and successful coach is his ability to shift and evolve. Coaches that tailor their program to the personnel are the ones that usually come out on top, and Hud looks like he's grasping this principle. And I'm highly impressed by that, because for a moment there it seemed like he was going to be the stubborn type. Defensively, the huborus wasn't such that he couldn't admit the problem. That, in and off itself is a great sign for the program going forward. Sometimes leadership is knowing when to ask for other's opinions. Hats off to Coach Hud, James Willis and all that were involved. This team was ready to dominate Tx St.

I felt like our players were allowed to be themselves. They weren't slowed by over thinking. They played football. The reaction time difference was staggering.

Now, I also know it's one game.

That's the way a self aggrandizing blowhard says be was wrong.

That scheme is standard stuff. We didn't introduce a defense others are unfamiliar with. Quite the opposite. We are now operating a defense similar to other programs. Our program is the one least familiar with it. Each week that passes, our defense (players) will get better at it. I can't forecast how we'll do against Ark State. But, there's no film advantage going up against this defense. We're operating assignment football. That "8 men lost in space" was our downfall. Preparing against it was a joke. We can now make truly valid assessments of our defensive athletes... and I think we're going to be impressed. I have no problem with waiting to see proof on the field.

Txst watched 4 games of film and had their scout team run what they saw our defense do schematically and personnel wise and we came out and did something different and you say that didn't put them at a disadvantage? Wrong. You are now saying that the fact that Ark St gets to see the changes and can prepare for them makes no difference? Wrong again.

That's exactly what I'm saying. 90% of film review is evaluating opposing offenses. Ark State isn't going to be the least bit "baffled" by our defense. We aren't using a special defense. We are using the same defense Ark State normally faces. We didn't shift schemes to trick people. The Ark State offensive staff is going to need 10 seconds to convey... "they abandoned the 3-4 read and react and are implementing a 4-2-5 corner press coverage" to which they're all going to say "got it"... spending another 10 minutes looking at 10 positioning adjustments we make under certain offensive sets (which again they'll say, "basic stuff").
