[QUOTE="jrichisamazing, post: 1346170, member: 8500"] I would argue that this team wouldn't be good at any defensive scheme right now. We're playing a bunch of freshmen who are generally slow at adjusting to defending at the college level. Plus, we have no atheticism/size inside except for Spicy G who is obviously not ready yet. But if it makes you feel better, BU did change his defense to pack line after OSU started 0-6 in the Big 12. He's going to do everything possible to teach his system, but if it doesn't work he is willing to change. Also, there is still plenty of time to bring in someone for next year. Late bloomers, decommits, 5th years, etc. Let's see how these young guys improve before we start complaining about the defense, because it's almost certainly going to be rough early on. We can talk about it in March. [/QUOTE]
