Someone with a football iq explain to me why McCullers being at nose tackle changes in a non base defense. Would a 3-3-5 not work better for us anyway if we go nickel?

I think they were in obvious pass situations which means we have quicker players in to rush the QB. We thought they were going to pass most of the time so we were not concerned with stopping the run, which would be what DMC is best at.

Ryan/Wes,
Did anyone mention if today's practice was better than yesterday? I recall the coaches being a little displeased with their effort yesterday. Was wondering if they saw any improvement today.

New Vol For Life coordinator Antone Davis spoke with reporters after today's practice. We will have a story on him later this week.

Ryan or Wes, SIAP but do you all know how much, or if any, interest Dooley had in Inky Johnson? Also, what hindered him for having this position? No discredit to Antone, but I just can't picture a better fit than Inky.

Our nickel package isn't a 3-3-5 look. It's probably 2-4-5/4-2-5 hybrid look. And it's usually focused on rushing the passer, and McCullers isn't really a pass rusher yet. Hope that helps!

I think you are right because it appeared we had 4 down lineman most of the second half. I might have seen 2 down a few times but not often. That's me just taking a look every few plays.
