I don't hate it. He is a very good recruiter. From El Paso Texas, played at UCLA, coached at New Mexico and San Diego St for Rocky Long. Long is pretty good defensive mind. He has put quite a few dudes in the NFL. Not sure a 3-3-5 will work in the Big 10, unless one of the 5 is a bigger hybrid LB/Safety that can cover in the pass and fill in the run.
To have a highly ranked defense in that league is pretty good IMO. If he's a good recruiter I'm fine with it.
Pretty good hire IMO. Syracuse's defense has certainly gotten a lot better under him. They were really damn good the first half of this season, not so much the last half but the terrible Syracuse offense didn't do him any favors.
But focus on that shutout of mighty Wagner.Just ignore the ND, FSU, and Wake games this year.
I assume he was coaching 3-3-5 because he was in the ACC, do not see how that could work with our guys and our conference, not yet anyway....but it requires the kind of players Rhule likes so maybe he'll bring it here maybe not, or install it after a season or two.
Apparently his 3-3-5 was known as "The Mob" at 'Cuse...who's ready to trade in the Blackshirts for some Mob Rhule!!!
I spent a little time last night watching the 2020 Sugar Bowl between Baylor and Georgia when Rhule was there.
One thing that impressed the **** outta me was the way their back 7 was flying to the ball.
They could all run, and # 3 was a hitting machine.
It was a condensed 20-minute video. Georgia won (24-16)?, but the Baylor QB and his backup must have had 3-4 passes intercepted. I think Baylor got down 17-0 or so at halftime and came back. (Spotty on my details).
I was totally impressed with their defensive team speed and how the secondary did in run support. A ton of pursuit and a ton of gang tackling.
That's what Rhule's DC ran at Carolina. Interesting stuff and the 3-3 is awesome with regards to smoke and mirrors. Will be interesting how its tweaked against DT and Regular pro sets. Will the OLB's be bigger bodied dudes than what you might see in the Big 12? Or will they dial down a stack backer as a standup DE? Will they slide to over and under fronts or use a bear front or stack front exclusively. Lots of things can be done when you have 8 moveable parts on the edge and 2nd and 3rd level. Similar to the 3-4 I guess but typically a 3-4 plays a lot of 2 high safety and the 3-3 plays single high.
Coached in a lot of minor bowl games thatās for sure, considering who he was assistant and D/C for..
In 2 years how many traditional Big Ten offenses will be left?
Iowa
Illinois
Michigan
Minnesota
Northwestern
Michigan State?
Rutgers?
7 out of 16? once you include UCLA and USC in a couple of years. That hybrid model may be a nod to the future of the conference.
Syracuseās 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.
