Wisconsin 5th in the Nation in Defensive yards per play

[jerzeycane]

It is funny that no one is allowed to question Aranda without being labeled a 3-4 hater idiot. Is his defense counterintuitive to our recruiting base? Are you recruiting Chad Thomas, Demetrius Jackson, Patrick Bethel and Joseph Jackson to be the guys who allow your LBs like Owens, Grace and Quarterman to make plays?

You're recruiting south Florida monsters on the DL. What do you want them to be? Chess pieces for a scheme? LuCane has said several times that players on the team have told him they "just wanna ball".

"But its an attacking style of defense". Well its not for the DEs and DTs. Those guys don't make flash plays. You'd be asking those guys to make plays that only excite coaches in the film room. Good luck selling that again.

Because Wisconsin doesn't have the chess pieces at dline that Miami does. You don't think Aranda would adapt his scheme to better suit studs on the dline? If anything he would tailor his defense to be even more aggressive than it is now. The whole point of this is whose to say that Aranda doesn't come in and change to a 4-3? The fact is the man has been a top flight Coordinator everywhere he has coached at and the trends tend to say he would do the same at Miami. 4-3/3-4 the whole point is Aranda has an aggressive mentality that would pair well with Miami.

Speaking of Aranda making adjustments, look no further than last season

Look at the schedule and the offenses Wiscy is lining up against week in and week out.

Would that defense hold up in the Big 12, for example?

I am not saying Aranda can't coach, but you need to look at the opponents as well---a large sample size against high powered offenses. I think Wisconsin's defensive rankings are skewed against the level of competition they face on offense.

Last year, Ohio state DISMANTLED that Aranda coached defense. It was ugly. 51-3, I believe

And now the ACC is filled with spread offenses. VT (5 wide under it's new coach); Clemson, Louisville, UVA (under it's new coach) and UNC are all spread offenses. Plus, we play FSU, which is pro style, but it's high powered.

We need a big time DC that can install defense that creates havoc, punish defenses, and get to the QB. We have the athletes in S. Florida to do it

Not concerned with his defense holding up in the Big 12.

I want it to hold up in the coastal and hold up against the best teams in the country.

If you supplement this man's defensive scheme with the best athletes in the country, it's gonna be epic

Why does everyone think that every coach they like will be EPIC with So Fl athletes? Most of these coaches have had success with less athletic players using systems specifically designed for those type players. There is a defense designed SPECIFICALLY for So Fl players and is was so EPIC it destroyed whole football programs for years. It is Miami's 4-3 defense. We KNOW it is EPIC using So Fl plays because it has in fact been EPIC doing so. It is not speculation, expectations, or wishful thinking; it is hard historic fact.

There is a beautiful near perfect girl standing in front of us begging to be taken out on the town again. We know she is fun. We know she works it. We know everyone else we die at the sight of her. YET, so many want the girl behind door number 1 or door 2. Why? For me, you can keep your mid-west long haired blonde who looks like she might be hot in all those sweaters and jackets with hoods only to find out those puffy spots are not all the sweater. Give me the lean, tan, scorching So Fl hottie in a barley there bikini unable to hide a skin spot, no less an extra 20 lbs.

She was hot 15 years ago...

15 years ago?? Really?

Ohio Taint is a 4-3 team and they won the title last year
FSU is a 4-3 team and they won the title 2 years ago

3 out of the 4 teams in this years playoffs deploy 4-3 defensive schemes (Bama). Only two teams in the entire top ten deploy 3-4 schemes (Bama/Stanford). Only 4 teams in the top 20 deploy 4-3 schemes (Bama, Stanford, Michigan, Oregon---- and Michigan is moving to a 4-3 next season)

In fact, in the last 15 years, 11 of the last 15 title teams deployed 4-3 defenses. Only Saban has won titles running a 3-4 scheme(1 at LSU, and 3 at Bama)

It is funny that no one is allowed to question Aranda without being labeled a 3-4 hater idiot. Is his defense counterintuitive to our recruiting base? Are you recruiting Chad Thomas, Demetrius Jackson, Patrick Bethel and Joseph Jackson to be the guys who allow your LBs like Owens, Grace and Quarterman to make plays?

You're recruiting south Florida monsters on the DL. What do you want them to be? Chess pieces for a scheme? LuCane has said several times that players on the team have told him they "just wanna ball".

"But its an attacking style of defense". Well its not for the DEs and DTs. Those guys don't make flash plays. You'd be asking those guys to make plays that only excite coaches in the film room. Good luck selling that again.

IF Dlineman are holding up the OL for linebackers to make plays it will not end well..WE need a defense where D lineman are gettin up the field causing havoc in the backfield...DO NOT WANT. This is mothing more than a more agressive 2 gap scheme if what the announcer said is correcct

That 8-5 Auburn team still scored 31 points and put up 435 yards and over 200 yards rushing. So lets applaud him for doing better than than he did against eventual national champions if you want. But he didn't have answers for Auburn.

His team would given up more points and yards if Wisconsin hadn't ran for 400 yards themselves and controlled the clock. I didn't see anything in that piece about his DE and DTs becoming more of a factor either.

So is it an etched in stone rule that Aranda has to run a 3-4? The dude is a stud coordinator for a reason, he may come in here on day one and run a 4-3 cover 2 until he leaves. My point is do you think he would run the old miami system at Wisconsin? It wouldn't work because they don't have the type of athletes that Miami does.

So now your basing what he does off one sentence that a commentator made? That's comical.

 

[HumbleCane]

If you watch his videos and see what his players say/have said about him, the guy is a rocket scientist when it comes to defense. He is not the yellin and screaming/hype type of guy. He would probably come here and do the best with what he has. He could easily go 4-3 with his type of defense and still confuse the f*ck out of offenses. SMH at all the haters...

IM pretty sure the annoucer researched and recieved notes on Arandas scheme for a bowl game...but maybe not,,,,, but Its comical that you think aranda would switch to a 4-3 after all his recent success running a 3-4

Speaking of Aranda making adjustments, look no further than last season

Wisconsin's versatile, hybrid defense - Football Study Hall

Auburn has stunk the last two seasons, and Malzhan might be on the hot seat next year. You point to the Auburn game last year, but they hung 31 on Aranda's defense, with bad QB play. Aranda's defense was dismantled 59-0 by Ohio Taint, and Alabama scored 35 on that defense with shaky QB play that game. Bama also had 11-12 penalties for close to 150 yards. Alabama could've scored 50 on that defense. That game was ugly, man. Wisconsin has played about bunch of offensive nobody's the better part of two season's man.

Aranda's system is perfect for Wisconsin and that Midwest style of ball - or what he did at Utah State. Doesn't fit the state of Florida. You only have a bunch of slow white guys to pluck from during recruiting cycles, and you need to be creative in your schemes to be solid on defense.

No matter how good of a coach you are, superior talent will win out. Look at Jimmy Johnson at Oklahoma State, couldn't get over the hump against superior teams so what did he do...he went to a place that he could get those superior athletes at. How'd that work for him?

JJ Watt played in an extremely similar defense. If you have guys who are disruptive they will get to the QB. It's not a hard concept to understand.

I wish I had the time or patience to explain how "getting up the field" is the most misunderstood football concept of all time.

And finally, Aranda has a ton of experience with the 4-3. He runs what fits the personnel he has.

She was hot 15 years ago...

15 years ago?? Really?

Ohio Taint is a 4-3 team and they won the title last year
FSU is a 4-3 team and they won the title 2 years ago

3 out of the 4 teams in this years playoffs deploy 4-3 defensive schemes (Bama). Only two teams in the entire top ten deploy 3-4 schemes (Bama/Stanford). Only 4 teams in the top 20 deploy 4-3 schemes (Bama, Stanford, Michigan, Oregon---- and Michigan is moving to a 4-3 next season)

In fact, in the last 15 years, 11 of the last 15 title teams deployed 4-3 defenses. Only Saban has won titles running a 3-4 scheme(1 at LSU, and 3 at Bama)

Dog, you started this by questioning Aranda's success with the 3-4 because he did it in the Big 10...

You then went and cited three teams in the Big 10 as 4-3 teams.

**** off my lawn

 

[HighSeas]

The porsters ITT would have us believe that Watt, Clowney, Wilkerson, Sheldon Richardson, Calais, Von Miller, Justin Houston, Cam Heyward, Brandon Williams, Fletcher Cox, Jurrell Casey, etc. aren't allowed to make plays because they play in a 3-4.

Seems like a dubious argument completely unsupported by facts or evidence, but hey this is CIS so that's the norm.

P.S. Fronts are interchangeable and thus not nearly as relevant as coverage schemes, fundamental teaching and overall philosophy...
