Coaches should be able to coach in both schemes. this is an opportunity to hire outside of the current staff and to hire someone to run a 4-3. Due to timing of the resignation we might not get either unfortunately….. Expand At the end of the season, Bubba announced he would not change from the 3-4 Quote

Midwestern Hawk Posted February 13, 2023 Author Posted February 13, 2023 Are we sure Holinka didn’t get out on his own terms before next season? Without major upgrades at LB and S(I don’t see it at this point), how is the defense going to be any better? 1 Quote

I’m leaning towards the 3-4 but that’s just my uneducated speculation ….. Quote
F'n Hawks Posted February 13, 2023 Posted February 13, 2023 3-4 shouldn’t be seen as the main problem. The problem last year is that we had very poor personnel at safety, OLB, and for the most part D-Line. Like @Midwestern Hawkstated above, I’m still worried about safety and OLB. There’s still time, but they did not use the portal to improve those areas. The defense will be better, but that’s mainly because it can’t be much worse. There are some things schematically I think they could do better, but I think the main problem is the personnel they have to work with. 1 Quote

Expand The timing of announcement gives hints as to what went on behind the scenes. Immediately after last game, Head Coach asks DC for assessment, top to bottom of players, training, and all the DC staff. And presumably a list of what to change for next season to improve results. HC reviews the resulting assessment (couple weeks later), asks for changes (perhaps to DC staff). They disagree. HC says "its time to part ways, but I'll give you the chance to announce it to the world first". Bottom line, I think there's more changes to come. Quote

We don’t need to be hyper-focusing on the scheme itself. Quote
