Al Golden's Defense

[Stewy]

So I see a lot of people saying we need this or need that from a defensive perspective, and I have made the comment a couple times in other threads that an Al Golden defense may look very different than what we are used to, and what we NEED might be very different than where we have been the last several years with Lou.  These comments were driven by a Joe Goodberry breakdown of Al Golden's ND defense, that he produced prior to Al Golden being hired.  Here is the video and move ahead to 14:39 for the start of the ND defense breakdown in this video.

Some things to consider....
Signings, drafting, releasing, trading and extensions for players could be driven by how the new DEF staff feels about player buyin to the new scheme.  Pratt and Trey might be pieces that are only poor to avg. fits.  

Personally, I am very excited to see the direction the DEF takes.
