We Will not win another NC under Entz. Discuss

Don’t disagree, but RB2 gave us bigger problems. Seems like we had more trouble this year with quicker/shiftier RBs compared to more downhill ones, similar to our troubles with shifty/quick QBs.

Our problems with shifty QBs and playing high flying throw it around teams for so many years in the playoffs led us to believe we needed smaller faster LBs IMO and I think we went too far.

Possibly, and we are bringing in more LBs with speed/agility but with decent size (Gulley for example).

Perhaps Entz already had his new DC before
the Gulley portal transfer and the new DC is a 3-4 guy. That would instantly give us more DL depth and give us better blitz and contain options with the 2 OLBs.

We know Braun didn’t just get hired today after all.

Well its like comparing Luepke running through a 10 foot hole vs Kobe or Jalen Bussey running through a 10 foot hole. Youll never catch Bussey in an open field. It all starts up front and out D-line got smacked around like a hooker

A 3-4? At NDSU? Seriously?

I'll have to see it to believe it.

Ran it 80s-90s.

Entz is more likely to go the Klieman route and go 3-5-5. I cant stand those defenses. We have always been a great defense if we can get the right personel. Im old school i like the base 4-3 with a nickel or dime package

What are the odds our new DC is named this week?
Would think it might take some time if they do a search, unless the deal is done already.

True for Natty, RB2 also torched us in regular season game.

IndyBison would like a rules discussion with you. ... Yeah, yeah, I know what you really meant: 3-3-5.

The MVFC has all built up OL/DL to deal with the xDSUs. Would going to a numerically smaller (6 v 7) defensive front really be the path to success? And don't you need at least one hybrid safety (big as LB, runs like CB) in that system?

Why don't I recall that? Then again, I've tried to forget most of that football era.
