We have 2 committed.... Arandas' scheme calls for 4 at times. We're already very thin there. Are some of the DE's able to move...???

Also, taking so many corners...says will be in 5&10 while in base 3/4..??? Is that possible..???

Anyway...really would like to see one more.

Expect to see a couple of the DE's move to OLB.

Thornton is a LB 100%

and most hope that D White will be a LB, so that would make 4

And Andre Anthony would make a perfect rush end in a 3/4

so...

I think Aranda can coach different schemes and played the 34 defense at Wis bc of the personnel on the roster. At least that's what I was led to believe by some of the quotes I've read.

That being said, some of the DEs will play standing up. I would almost guarantee in a 34, he would use Key at OLB.

To answer your main question though, I'm not sure about the LB recruitment.

I would expect that some of these DT'S will be standing up on the end then...

I think most recruiting sites had Beckwith listed as a DE.

C. Thompson for sure will be moved to LB in his scheme. He is extremely athletic and already has the size. I think he will excel there.

Yea, it seems as if Aranda likes the lighter, faster LBs, ala Chavis. I could def see Thompson at OLB in one of his schemes.

White is 250 and runs a 4.5. I'll be stunned if he isn't at MLB.

Reading about his defenses, guys on our roster fit exactly what he used at wisky for his 2-4-5 scheme.
