Is anyone else slightly worried about the new defensive scheme? Seems like a lot of the players like it, and I like that it's flexible and allows us to get athletic guys on the field, but the fact that no one really knows exactly how to define it, or what certain positions are/what they do isn't inspiring confidence.
I hear a lot of generic buzz terms being thrown around, but because of the pitfalls in the last 20 years when we bring guys like Diaco in that say all the right things, but couldn't stop a high school offense, I'm nervous. Plus White's system isn't only new to the players but also to the other coaches (none of whom have ever worked with him) so there are a lot of unknowns.
Obviously, I'm hopeful. I think we've got some great athletes on D, and some of the transfers were clutch, but I'm far more comfortable with the offense than the defense at the moment.
Make me feel better about the Defense.
