[QUOTE="Eight, post: 2637085, member: 73370"] i think a big part of that is that mike doesn't know what he needs to recruit for the 3-man front. they continually have tried to play kids that were 7 techniques in a 4-man front and are now being asked to play head up on a tackle that has them by 60-70 lbs. losing proposition. same with their linebackers who don't fit the scheme. you know there is far more than drawing [ Finebaum ] up on a chalk board. you have to be able to teach it, call it, and recruit it. orlando has done a great job identifying the kids that will fit in his scheme at texas but he has had to project some kids as well as travel a bit. key is he knows what he needs to make it work. mike never did and his switching from a base 4-3 to the 3-3-5 or whatever odd man front combination he was running reminded me of when wacker went from the veer to the run-n-shoot. just because you go watch some practices and you can draw it up doesn't mean you can make it work.
