Re: DC Hire

Nmsu ran a 3-3-5 last year. 👀 Meh maybe as a basic concept. If you watch their film it looks more like a 4-3, 4-2, or 3-4. I've brought this up on the board before, very few good coaches in today's game run a true base defense. I would say 80% of the time the weakside backer is lined up as a stand ...

Re: Article on Shaun Dolac

Dolac was injured in game 4 this year and took a redshirt. He was a freshman that played all 7 games for Buffalo in 2020. He should have a COVID year available too, so up to 2 years of eligibility left. So Cauthen would have coached Dolac for 2 years at Buffalo. I assume that’s where we had a pre-e...

Re: Official Depth Chart Out. Did we switch back to the "striker/spur" defense?

First of all, kudos to aggies22. He basically nailed the depth chart. I noticed though that the official depth chart doesn't show the defense in a Nickel or with a 4-3 defense, but rather seemingly in the same formation we have been using in recent years past with a 4-2 base and then having a lineb...

Re: Predict the Score - FB 10/15 @ Colorado State

I know it’s early but these predictions have me scratching my head a bit. CSU’s offense has scored 6 touchdowns and two field goals in 5 games. Outside of Michigan they haven’t really played anyone either.

Gary A was focused on LB's. He said we couldn't successfully recruit "Biggs" so he recruited LB's. What I see as a result of that mindset is that we have a lot of LB size guys on defense.

Re: Ranked 138th best recruiting class in 2021

We are only taking 3 or 4 high school kids. Transfers do not reflect on your rankings. That is why. Nothing to be concerned over at all. If all the transfers scores were counted in our class we would be close to number 1 in the conference and top 75 in the country.
