Just another reason why i think a switch to the 3-4 would help us becauase of our great young LB's. Only thing is, do we really have that big, tough DT to take up space in the middle?

Welcome aboard ysufan0505. Great questions and insight. I do not know if you have been here before, but you will fit in very well. 3-4 vs 4-3 is a great topic. I am not sure we have the size anymore.

1st time on here before but thank you! I know we have Aronde Stanton back next year year but not sure he is the guy. Our LB's are just so strong, it only makes sense to move to the 3-4. I do see our secondary getting a lot better next year with Boatwright coming back from healthy from the injury and then Davis is back and then i hear that Dale Peterman will be joining the team this spring so he can either play Corner or Safety. D'Alesio is back as well but i just do not think he is starting material and then Jimmy May i think is best suited as the nickel corner. We should be a lot more athletic than last year. Should be interesting. GO GUINS!

Astute comment. Our critical needs are for secondary people AND special teams players. If these guys can run down the field and actually tackle somebody, they will immensely improve our team. Last year Wolford passed up A.J. Fox, a quality kicker from Mooney, in favor of the juco. Turned out the juco had such a weak leg that our punter had to also handle kick-offs. Bet he regrets that decision. Heck, with the coaching change at Akron, go get Fox now. (discreetly, of course)

Thanks Wick!! 1st "astute" comment I've received credit for ;D Where did AJ end up?? I forgot about him and last year's recruiting. Sadly, I'm getting old and my memory is "iffy" :)
On this kicker thing; I'm just shocked how these kids on a scholarship can't hit the ball at least to the goal line in college. Timmy (my son) and I was at the State HS Championship game in WKU's stadium a few weeks ago. I tee'd up a HS football at the 30 and on my 3rd try I got it down to the goal line. I wasn't very high but just sayin... I haven' t kicked a ball in 10 years or better. I won't discuss the first attempt at it and how friggen sore I was the next two days LOL!!

Red, I think he meant "ass toot", just spelled it wrong.
