With what alignment? 4-2-5 would mean seeing 3 safeties ....
Not exactly true. The 4-2-5 in general terms means the substitution of a defensive back for a linebacker. Most times when teams go to the nickel they bring in an extra cornerback. Which in LSU's case would probably be the most logical based on your original post.

yeah. Thats why I asked what alignment. Nickel is called nickel and not 4-2-5 because it suggests that there will be a 3rd cb and not a 3rd safety and it also suggests that two safeties will be playing deep instead of one. Basically, I was asking if he meant Nickel or the traditional 4-2-5 with 1 FS and 2 Rovers
