What defense will we run this season?

[EyeOfTheGRIZ]

4-2-5 or 4-3 or something else?

If we start 2-3 linebackers who will they be? Look to be pretty loaded at LB!

 

[GriznMN]

I've heard we are running the 4-4-3

 

[MrG]

3-2-6

My prediction is there are going to be multiple defensive alignments primarily out of a 4 man front. Who are the DTs going to be? On linebacker I expect the transfer Eklund to play. I’ve been somewhat following him since he was at Folsom High School. He led Folsom in sacks his senior season. I’ve heard he has looked excellent this offseason with the Griz too.

My understanding it's going to be a Multiple Defense with different fronts and alignments probably dependent on opposing Offenses, down and distance. Hopefully a much easier scheme as with the way the transfer portal is nowadays something that can be easy to teach a bunch of new players.

Will opinions of the Rocky Long 3-3-5 base change this season if it gets to the CFP?

Ask somebody on the team. They will tell you

I know more D people on the team now than you do, and they can’t say what will be run, other than generally. They don’t know.

As well as at Safety. I think we're really loaded at that position.

Fail. They know.

I'm thinking something that more fits our players. I'm a Griz fan, but I feel we've been married to certain defense for a while. That defense relied upon a certain type of push uo the middle; even though we didn't have the personal for that defense. I never understood why. I'm feeling better about this year for that reason. We shall see but I feel good about our defense this year.

 

[ResilientGriz]

4-2-5 and 4-3 and 3-3-5 and 3-2-6 and 3-4

 

[Oldskoolgriz]

Definitely need to run the 1-9-1. Ha

 

[UncleRico]

4-2-5 and 4-3 and 3-3-5 and 3-2-6 and 3-4

1-10 and a 2-9

 

[Copper Griz]

Look at the coordinators. Look at their history and the teams they coached at. Look at the transfers. It won’t be a 3-3-5 thankfully.

 

[oldngrizzly]

The hoops defense.

 

[alabamagrizzly]

1-10 and a 2-9

Don't forget about the 11-0-0. They cant block everyone.

Always a fan favorite

Always a fan favorite

You gotta love fan complaints about how the Oline sucked and couldn’t block anyone when facing this defense in 10 personnel results in a sack.

 

[mthoopsfan]

Nope. They know the schemes, which are varied, but they don’t know what will be called by the coaches during games.
