I'll continue to hope for Jim Leonhard. When I saw us sign Blay and see him line up over the center in a few highlights, I thought there is hope... I don't know what that does for four man-front guys (like Scott?), forgive my football ignorance if I don't know what I'm saying

Jim Leonard would be a dream DC for us. Make it happen Mario!

It's called a 40 G front. Nothing changes that much, its just gap responsibility.
Typically in a 40 strong front its balanced. The 1tech (NT) has weakside A, and is lined up in it, and in the run game in specially the strongside Inside zone run play, they keep the C and Boundary Guard from going to second level.

In a 40 G front, their alignment is in zero technique, i.e., nose to nose with the center.
Now he has to play the OC via two way gapping (i.e., play side and boundary A gaps) while the Mike LB is responsible for the A gaps the NT decides not to.
The Will backer is responsible for the boundary B gap and the 3tech or DT, is lined up in the strongside 3 tech and has the assignment of that B gap, which is exactly the same in a strong 40 front

In a 40 G front, you have a to have a run stuffing Will backer who can mess with the big boys on the LOS.
This has less to do with Blay and more to do with the Will. In a 40 G front, you expect the NT to smash the C a yard behind the LOS, extend arms and sink and watch the backfield and make a play, meanwhile in a typical 1 tech position, he does the dirty work so everyone else gets the play.

Luke Fickell had every right to call out coaches for recruiting Wisconsin players

When the NCAA decided to change the rules and open up the transfer portal, did it have any idea things would get this bad? Forgive us for saying this, but colle

It is past starting to feel like the Badgers have decided to target Miami re Lucas. Gotta love this Badger article describing Lucas' announcement of portal'ing as "out of nowhere." Welcome to the current state of college football, Luke and this writer, where have you been. The portal gives and takes from everybody right now the way it is set up.

He's pathetic.

First off, coaches don't actually have to "tamper" to mean your kids on your roster are being recruited..the agents are doing a lot of it just to make themselves more money. Especially for a kid who's whole family lives in Miami. Plenty of people are probably in his ear to come home.

Also, I'm sure Fickell is engaging in the exact same behavior.

What coach wouldn't let his staff, or even collective for that matter, have a conversation with an NIL agent who's offering to help bring a kid that would help the team?
