Would not be my favorite defense to run.
Seems like thats what they primarily ran at mizzou.

Honestly after this year, I'm open to pretty much anything.

Just let the dogs be dogs

I don't care what he runs honestly as long as it makes sense with our personnel

3-3-5 was started by Joe Lee Dunn, coached a number of years, many in the SEC.

He runs a 4-2-5 which is similar to what lsu ran years ago with a hybrid LBer/Safety as the 5th DB. It is meant to get better speed/coverage on the field and you can think of Perkins as that hybrid for example.

Same as a Jacoby Stevens as well.

I just want to see our defense RUN

It’s been a while since we’ve seen guys fly around on the field making stops. Just run and tackle and run the system that fits the personnel.

Watching that Michigan D fly around and makes stops against Bama reminded me of LSU defenses of old.

Ive heard that repeated here, but it looks like mizzou ran a 3-3-5 most of the year

I'd like to see us able to run a 3-3-5. I don't think we have the best personnel for it currently though

3-3-5 is the best defense to attack spread offenses...

3-3-5 stack is amazing

Kelly is a zone guy. Always has been and I expect him to always be that way.

Posted this on the CC board a few days ago if you’re interested. It’s pretty basic, but it at least gives some insight on his personnel in the scheme.

Baker’s 4-2-5
