So the 3-4 will work in the B1G but the 3-3-5 won't. Yeah, that makes sense.
Tony White's Defense

3-3-5 you have smaller players on the field utilizing speed and this D was designed to combat the spread, not get down and dirty.
LOL So the 4 and 5 star monster Oline that USC has on their teams is not comparable to....?
The 3-3-5 WASNT designed to defend the spread.
It was designed to stop pro style offenses like what Mich, Iowa etc in the B10 run...
If you have noticed other B10 teams are also going to (LIke Wisky) be going more spread.
Cuse beat Purdue this year with the 3-3-5...
Yes it was designed to stop the spread and it was Patterson that invented it.
Doesn't have to be that way. He could run 3-3-5 with 3-4 personnel save 1 LB for a hybrid. What's the difference? Just 1 guy who will be blitzing and coming up against the run just like the LB. IMO, if Leonhard had run it at WI with his guys, it would have been just fine in the B1G.
Jo Lee Dunn is widely credited with inventing the scheme according to a Google search.
That’s not necessarily true. Urlacher was the rover in a 3-3-5 in college. You can also use one or even two bigger backers capable of operating as an edge rusher.
The other thing to keep in mind is that no matter what you run most college defense only play in base 20-25% it seems. There’s a ton of situational defense and constant subs. The cuse fans are saying he will put 4-6 dudes on LOS if need be and will run different personnel groups out of the base scheme.

Suh, Crick, Collins, Gregory. Domann, David, Gomes, Prince, Dennard, White Snake and Taylor-Britt running it would work. Hagg too.
It requires elite athletes but it is possible. I do think it is unnecessarily risky BUT with UCLA, USC and Wisconsin's OC hire maybe the B1G will be less run-heavy.
I invented it. Sheesh. I was working in a mall theater and listening to The Cars whilst dating Phoebe Cates, and utilizing Charles Jefferson to crush Lincoln High! #dadsAtvRepairMan
I am sure Tony White is well aware of the reputation of Big Ten teams for being physical up front on offense. Nor is it the case that only the B1G has big and tough offensive lines. I am sure Tony White has seen such things before. Rhule has stated that he wants Nebraska to return to the days of being dominant at the line of scrimmage. I therefore highly doubt he is bringing in a defensive coordinator who just wants a bunch of its-bitsy speedsters on defense.
We all need to take a chill pill. Tony White will do what needs to be done in order to defend B1G offenses. The dude isn't an idiot.

Syracuse’s new 3-3-5 defense, explained
Syracuse hired Tony White to implement 3-3-5 defense, a scheme built to combat the spread offenses of modern football.

Multiple Defensive Fronts In The 3-3-5
There is an increase in hybrid defenses and defensive personnel groupings. The need to be multiple has never been more important.

Agree. I think Rhule stated he wants to control the LOS. On offense that may be dominating with power and strength. On D it could be with speed and deception.
5 Facts About the 3-3-5 Defense
Misconceptions about the 3-3-5 Defense have reached almost mythical proportions. Guys who run the defense are cool with that. The fewer people who know about it, the better off they are.

sounds an awful lot like what folks have been pining for the last 20 years here as they reminisce the 90's.
Let's be honest with ourselves here. We've run all manner of systems in the last 20 years on both sides of the ball, and every one of them basically has the caveat "its requires elite athletes to run well".
Football is pretty simple folks. There are have's and have nots. With our resources and competent coaching we can be a bowl->10 win team every year. If we want to be "over the top" and compete with the top half dozen teams, you need elite athletes. I don't care if you run the option or the WCO or a 4-3 or a 335. To win at the level NU wants to win at you need top shelf coaching and elite athletes.
There's no system that's going to paper over the fact we are in a low talent area, even tom didn't win the big one until he started winning in more coastal athletes living rooms. He was a phenomenal coach and had a system that minimized the need for elite athletes on the offense.
