New DL Coach

I can promise you this when all is said and done, this secondary is gonna mirror or come as close as possible to his Bills secondaries. You can take that one to the bank.
As @PeliniTheCrutch was trying to explain to you, combo or split field coverages are normal coverages. Playing press coverages is more dependent on you ability to match athletes for athlete. With the talent Nebraska has currently in their DB roster, playing press, man to man vs Ohio St or Oregon would result in an epic beat down. However, against Northwestern or Iowa you might could play more press.

The video you posted was a tutorial on a specific technique. If you look hard enough, you will find a WR coach with a tutorial on how to beat the technique that Butler is teaching.

I don't trust banks.
Fair enough with banks. But this is what that secondary is eventually gonna look like under him. Butler will be doing double duty, DC and secondary coach. Sure he won't be able to add everything as college players don't the luxury of time alotted to get everything NFL players have time to get down and rep. This secondary will look like a college version of his Bills secondary with not as much.

I won't lie I am kinda liking the idea of these young guys on the recruiting trail. Guy like Mozee in KC, Simpson in Florida, Shorts in the SEC region, Dvoracek in the the 500, and I THINK the new DL coach has ties in Florida as well.


I actually am liking the assistant hires. I initially had questions about the DC hire. I'm still a bit worried tbh but the Snow hire helps tremendously with that.

I don't feel anything like I did when Satterfield was announced as OC lol. So that's a good thing..

This is what I'm talking about about. Say what you will about the hires between the DL coach, Mozee, and Simpson if these guys can hit their recruiting areas hard and get some dudes that "coaching" thing becomes a bit easier.

Shavers, McGahee, Barney, Tarver, CB (name I forget) and add Mozee and the big OL in this class.

Keep bringing in talent like that. I know we talked about some of the bad coaching we have had but we are lacking "dudes" as well. I've learned that "players make plays". You can't coach that. Put em in position to make them but can't do it for them.

Go watch Oregon or OSU or Texas or any of those top teams. On offense those kids are DUDES. They not making these plays because of some dramatic coaching "chops". You see Texas WRs? If so you know why they didn't think twice about giving us their leftovers lol.

Get us some playmakers and let Dana out them in positions and I THINK guys like Barney and Mozee will make those plays.

Kak these were excellent hires. The problem with some is that if “they” haven’t heard of them the hire is meh. Coach Bradden is from Riviera Beach Florida, where Devon Hester is from and more recently former starting quarterback at FSU Jordan Travis is right around the corner from West Palm Beach. These areas have been untapped because of being overlooked by schools not in Florida. So now with Coach Simpson and Bradden and the S. Florida players making positive noise on the playing field this is a chess not checkers move/s. Lastly some kids don’t want to stay in Florida, for various reasons, they understand that if I make the league I”ll either live or will play in bad weather. Doesn’t hurt that Bradden will recruit with those back to back Super Bowl rings either.

I like the hires of the assistant coaches. I also see the vision. If Butler pans out I think we did great. If not...

Good dlines are possible to scheme around now, which is why teams have moved away from a pro-style, NFL power offense. Our dline could handle a power run game because of the big boys but they had little impact on a spread, timing based offense that got the ball out, like Illinois or Indiana. Well balanced offenses are just hard to stop, teams that can bring in TEs and run power, and then spread you out, and you really just need to out score them. That is why Indiana was either going to be a blowout or a shootout, our defense was not set-up to stop them with our sieve of a secondary. Our weakest position coach is now our DC, and that is more scary than losing personnel.
And yet the Bills, Eagles and Lions are all pro style power run teams. The Bills and Eagles are just capable of running the QB.
