247: Vols' projected depth chart next season

We’re at an impasse. Our DEs in our 3-4 run in the 270-290 range or more...not 230. Maybe like Tyler Baron he can grow into that role but he’s an OLB currently. Still uncertain how we deploy Baron. We don’t run a 4-3...we move our OLBs wide or tight. Part of the beauty of the 3-4’s flexibility. Unless he’s taking on an OL directly in the 3-4...he’s an OLB. Lawrence Taylor...wiki him bruh.
I know who LT is watch him play his college ball

LT was 6-3 or 4 and weight was somewhere near 230-240. I’ll just say this....a D player at the line of scrimmage who lines up on outside shoulder of the down lineman is a DE.

Leonard Marshall was a DE...LT was a 3-4 edge OLB. I’m confused why you think reciting his weight changes that.
 
You messed up the quote...and it’s getting personal for you.
 
You're wrong Volmack.

I'm well aware of exotic and multiple defense. The 3-4 is our primary front.
Sometimes you'll see guys like B Eason (MLB) line up on the edge a rush the passer.
Guess what his position is? MLB...

If you put Morven Joseph outside the tackle and inside the TE ( 7 tech) on heavy with his hand on the ground...he's not a DE.
He's an OLB.

Fits you well

Reggie White was a DE. also so what. I watched LT line up on the line just like Reggie White did on the edge. Hand in the ground and rush the same way all the time. Changes nothing BUT what you want to call him. THATS alllll

Why are you using young men who haven’t even showed up yet to tell me I’m wrong.? You just brought MJ to the line between the OT. And the TE. to prove your point ? Lol you also brought the MLB B. Eason to line to edge rush .? To prove your point lol....I guess, so if your in a 3-4 and your three down lineman are nearly 300 or larger....plus there lined inside the tackles. That’s a Dlineman !! not a DE. You guys do realize that they recruit different body styles for different skill sets....correct?? When they trot out 4-5 DL. And 2 MLB the two outside edgers either out of stance or hand down ARE DE.’s PERIOD.
 
You guys are arguing over guys who haven't even had a practice yet?

We have no way of knowing who will play or how they'll be used.

Pruitt's base is a 3-4 which by my understanding consists of a NG, DT, and DE. Bama had different guys with different skill sets in these roles at their peak. Pruitt's guys seem to be more flexible. At one time, the 3-4 had to MLBs, an OLB, and a "jack" who was sort of a hybrid DE/LB. Pruitt hasn't had the ideal jack since he's been at UT unless you count Taylor... but he wasn't great at the LB part. Pruitt seems to have settled in on a kind of 3-3-5 much of the time using just about anyone on the field to bring QB pressure.

Personal lol....3-4 seems the only thing that’s personal to you guys. “Yes” the D starts out with a 3-4 basic concept. I’m gonna try to get you to understand this one more time. Different body styles CREATE different alignments due to there skill sets. There for when they come in ...There no longer running a basic 3-4 D. When they trot the big boys out there and I’m not talking goal line defense. There playing with Tackles and DE.’s out of a 4-3 or even a 5-2. Watched them play this a lot last year. All based on the team and play to play. Each game is different with each style of offensive team there facing.

Yeah...didn’t change anything.

K. Reggie White was a DE. You blew the lid off this one.
 
:D

You may be taking things here a little too serious. Not talking about your fanship generally... just what goes on here.

That said, you may have been mad at me for what I said about Fulmer. I wanted him to get his shot to turn things around but once it was obvious the had lost the team and control of the 2008 season... it was time for him to go. It is a shame it wasn't handled better by everyone involved. It might have saved UT a lot of trouble if he had stepped back then taken over as AD sooner. But for a lot of reasons... he hung on to the HC job at least 4 years too long.
