Where is Hall? No more Knowles.

JaQuan was in class

I think diaz is trying to use smith and finley like he was planning on using grace at sam. Undersized guys at LB but they have more speed and are asked to do more in coverage.

I wouldn't be suprised if they don't move zach to mike or will next year if shaq or mike leaves early.

 

[TexasCane90]

I got the feeling Ivey or Gil will take that spot from Dean

So is McCloud playing SAM and WILL?

So is McCloud playing SAM and WILL?

No. Just sam.

Can we PLEASE just make the transition to a 4-2-5 base? It's not 1996 anymore. There's rarely a need for three linebackers on the field at one time.

This is diaz version of a hybrid 4-3/4-2-5 defense. At miss st. he had a in the box ss that had some size and moved him to sam. It isn't really a true 4-2-5 but it will be a bigger safety or undersized speedy LB playing sam.

Sounds like we need another two headed monster in the 2019 class and cut the fat.

 

[JgDaCane]

Starting to get some nice depth on D at LB & DB. By the way. There’s a better chance of my dog starting vs LSU then Knowles. So just ignore that.

 

[CANEMC]

Hartley setting the tone. He knows what savages are coming in.

True. There may be games where a base 4-3 is warranted like GT, not sure who else, but everyone else is spreading us out. We have some big fast corners and some fast yet physical safeties now so I say go with the 4-2-5.

 

[UMFarArcher]

Put DeeJay at TE, he can do everything!

Seriously!

Could probably call plays as well. Not just offense!

 

[Stefan Adams]

What did the o line look like today? Jones still in?

**LATE EDIT: In the interview portion after practice, the offensive line stayed on the field to hit the sleds after everyone already left (Tre Johnson was not present). The depth chart was:

First Team: St. Louis - Jones - Gauthier - Donaldson - Brown
Second Team: Herbert - Scaife - Gaynor - Mahoney - Hillery
Third Team: Campbell - Milo - Dykstra

Not worried about TE, Brevin about to takeover

 

[McKenzieMoore]

....by default it seems

Don't worry, Brevin Jordan will be the starter against LSU

 

[momocharles78]

I think we need to add a grad transfer TE...no way we can count on two freshmen
