A 1 Tech in a 4-3 is commonly referred to as a nose.
Do you math again, and do it correctly.
Does that equal 2 nose tackles then?
Nope. A 3 technique is referred to as a 3 tech or sometimes the “under” tackle. I have no idea where the “under” comes from
Kind of my point.
Whatever your point was I missed it. I just know the things I know.
Why would you think I would try to correct you? I love this stuff and discussions on X's and O's. I love the flexibility of the 3-3-5 but we are all just fans and see different things.
Yeah, no value can be attributed to experience in the profession. Got it.
Some value can some value can also be attributed to having young hungry guys on the staff. That’s what UM had in Bobby 1.0 and what MSU has now. Most of the hires in Bobby 2.0 are his boomer buddies that were hungry young coaches 20-30 years ago.
Or risk going threw the same crap all over again? Risk the football program going to shit for another 10+ years? Ignorance is bliss.
That’s really a defeatist attitude.
Good grief - please post more...
I agree that Hauck has some really good coaches within the staff. They absolutely know how to evaluate talent which is why they have recruited the portal so successful. But IMHO they have gotten themselves behind the eight ball in player development and lost the recruiting battle within the state. That has forced them to look to the portal transfers to fill the holes instead of the next man up on the roster philosophy. That is not a recipe for long term sustained success.
...and yet - see your previous post. Can't have it both ways.
Why is recruiting from the portal a receipe for disaster? Most schools are huge recruiters from the portal. Relying on development of young players is quaint, but not the way the modern world works. MSU didn't win the recent games because they won the in-state battle. They won because they played well and executed a nice game plan, and were fortunate with some good ball bounces and a couple dirty tackles, along with some key big plays. Even the recent big point margin, wasn't some huge game-whooping. It was a horrible 5.5 minutes where UM gave up 3 TD's and a huge good play by the Cats, and bad play by Griz, on 3d and 20 from the 12. Without that play, I say the Griz have a good chance of winning the game. The Cats how think they have invented football, because they made a few big plays and were fortunate. They will get their due. And some of the clueless Griz fans buy into this. I'm sure the Cats have plenty of unknowledeable fans, but I fear the Griz fans could be worse.
It can be a double edged sword, case and point alot of older coaches are or have struggled to adapt to NIL and the Transfer Portal. I think that's why ASU in particular got Dillingham and other schools are hiring Recruiting coordinators to assist.
Did I say it was a recipe for disaster? Uh no, I did not. I said it was not a recipe for long term success. The griz have obviously done well in the portal. We will agree to disagre here. To argue that the cats haven't won the in state recruiting battle in the last few years and that it didn't contribute to the outcome of this game is also something we can disagree about.
We have a great recruiting coordinator in Justin Green. The rest of the coaches are ancient.
