re: article on lsu defense and how we are recruiting to move toward a 3-4

Essentially, were recruiting different types of players in the front seven for different situations. We'll still have some 210lb linebackers, and also some 250 backers. We'll have some 34DEs, and also some speed rushers.
You have to realize that we will rarely be in a true base 43 or 34, we'll have 5 or 6 defensive backs on the field the vast majority of the time. just the way the game has transitioned (and where a lot of our studs are)

I hope you're right about this. I thought I had seen that Steele was not a fan of the so-called "Mustang" package that Chavis ran, and he would not be using it. The only thing that bothers me about the 3-4 is that Alabama uses it a lot, and they can't even slow down a spread offense, much less stop it. Maybe if we have some hybrid safety/linebacker types (Chatman?), I will feel better about it.
