Big shout out to CW.
All paraphrases here.
* Heavy use of 1 back 1 te formations. Uses big guy who can catch at TE and splits him out wide.
* Will live on running the ball.
* We will look different than Big 12 teams on offense.
* Will physically look like the Toledo teams, but on a different scale.
* Crushes it as a recruiter in Pa. Pulled really good players out of there. WV should be worried about this.
* On defense,
1. Look for aggressive.
2. Very good DL.
3. The D has not been very good under MC at Toledo some years.
4. BG plays similar to Big 12 teams on a Mac scale, they are Toledo's big rivals and MC has beat them 4 years in a row.
5. Lot of nickle, 4 2 5.
6. Will use 1 DL as a LB type on the edge who can rush the passer.
7. Calls his defense "multiple."
8. Defense features a weakside LB who can really run.
9. Will be stunned if Candle is not the OC. Really good guy who knows FB.
Ben Bruns was on too and spoke of his role with Pollard. Again paraphrased.
* Told Jamie need to run the ball. Suck the life out of the clock. It works. It's working well for the Hawks this year.
* Suggested it's necessary to recommit to IA recruiting. Dig deep to find kids. Find the kid at Roosevelt who can play, the kid in small town in NW Iowa who can play.
