With the lack of speed on our roster. We need to be targeting these kinds of kids and sticking them at LB.

Harrison Smith
Zeke Motta
Chris Badger

All are examples of guys who need to be playing 2nd level instead of 3rd.

They don't have the frame our D is looking for. Do you not remember Harrison Smith playing linebacker last year? *Chills*

He did miss some tackles, same as he does at Safety. The thing he did do was get into the backfield and make plays.

In a perfect world, if you run a 4-3 you have 2 big DT's, 2 pass rushing ends. A hammer a MLB (Teo) and 2 smallish quick/fast OLB's.

Then 2 cover corners, a good cover FS and an 8th man in the box hammer Safety.

That needs to be the blueprint.

We don't run a 4-3, wrong blueprint.

I'm fully aware of that. Problem is, with this current roster, we are running something closer to a 5-2

3 DT's, both OLB's were DE's last year. 2 Inside LB's. Top that off with 2 Safety's who were recruited as Linebackers.

Not hard to see why we are slow on that side of the ball. The kicker in the whole thing is with all that size. We should be super stout stopping the run.

Man this kid needs to start shorting his list, we are already in november and siging day is just a couple months away (feb) right ? and he still has like over 20 teams he's interested in ! he would be a huge plus in are DB section. but my gut feeling say's he stays home in South Carolina .... we all the success they are having this season. although South Carolina already has 5/6 guys signed up to play DB from their 2011 class. so he might go else where

My understanding is that he is pretty much only looking at South Carolina.
