Unfortunately for us there is no scheme that is based on having small linemen.

A lot of the teams that have adopted the 3-3-5 did it because they couldn’t legitimately fill a four man front, but you’re not wrong.

All defensive fronts operate at a higher level with at least one immovable object in the mix.

People want to shit on JoBu but he had nothing to do with the piss poor personnel he inherited. As you said, there is no successful scheme taylor made for bitch ass d-line that pushed around like little school girls.

Once again, let’s see what he does with a legit P4 d-line. If they still get pushed around then we have a legitimate cause to discuss scheme, technique and/or motivation coming from Butler.

If Butler had the freedom to choose any scheme, what do you guys suspect he would run? Would he stick with the 3-3-5? He runs a lot of 4-2. We do a lot of things but haven’t been good at anything. Is Rhule dictating what he is doing? The best coaches I know have a system they believe in, can coach, and do it well.

This brings up bad memories of Pelini's run defense getting gashed and he'd just say "we weren't in our run fits. This is fixable."

Thank God! I am so relieved! Here I was just thinking we were getting our asses kicked, but if the LB just isn't filling the gap and we need to tell him to do so, then we should win the 2014 national championship.
