As we all know Cwynar is a pass rushing end already in HS so he would be on the Weak Side DE to rush with more freedom. If you are confused i am sorry because thats the best i can describe it without confusing myself. It's just Charlie and his wierd terminology again i guess.

Thanks IrishKnight - this really cleared things up! Reps.

There was a thread a while back that gave insight in regards to years of eligibility for current players and upcoming scholies that will be available, where is it?

I am just wondering how many more d-lineman we should get...

[stonebreakerwasgod]

I say get the BEST available at any position. The numbers will work themselves out eventually.

what a BIG pickup

I'm really glad to see another D-line pickup here, and a really good kid by the sounds of it as well. This recruit class is really beginning to shape up quite well....Charlie really wants some more rings for those fingers.

Excellent analysis IK1023, it explains Hafis's use of the DT tag more clearly.

One thing that CW did say when he first talked about the 3-4 is that he would prefer not to use SDE (or DT in the other terminology) & WDE (or DE in the other terminology) personnel because then the D has to adjust its' alignment to the Offensive formation. His preference was to have two book-end DE's (LDE/RDE) who line up in the same spot (left & right of the NG) on every play, regardless of where the strong-side of the offensive formation is. From a personnel standpoint at the present time, the SDE(DT)/NG/WDE formation seems most likely, but if ND were to snag a Marcus Forston type who is virtually the same size as Cwynar, then the book end DE formation may become a reality in two years or so. From that point on, that would seem to be the optimum scenario for the DL when it is in the 3-4. Even without Forston, Hafis Williams may end up being a book-end to Cwynar, and they may be able to go LDE/NG/RDE with Cwynar, Newman? /Williams.

I hope so at least, and then we would not have to deal with so many tags.
