All 3 Defensive Assistants have spent most of their careers in College.

You can see my assessment of what this might mean schematically Here


But in the meantime...I think we can safely say now that this is very very deliberate. All 3 guys have spent entire careers in college, and all 3 were HEAVILY involved in Recruiting.

Speculation on what it could mean:

1) Huge youth movement on Defense, wanting guys that were involved in college and recruiting to work with and get the most out of the young players

2) Schematically we are looking to heavily steal from the college game and how they defend the Spread, running QBs, etc. Lots of odd front looks


What specifically Bo Davis means:

To me it is interesting that we hired two guys with significant experience in defenses that run 2-4-5 and 3-3-5...and now Bo Davis. Why?

Bo primarily focused on DTs at LSU. What position has the most pressure in a 2 man front? DT. You're also running out some guys that could be traditional DTs in a 3 man front across the board as well.
