Things Discussed:

  • We need a Sicario entrance.
  • Special guest Ron English got to see practice. Recalls 2011 Sugar Bowl prep was all Kyle Whittingham.
  • Strength gains: different S&C approach, or different feel in the program?
  • Jay Hill defense: A lot of disguise, a lot of movement. Reminded Ron he came to visit in 2005.
  • Ron's a big fan of Jyaire Hill, recruited the hell out of him when at Purdue.
  • When a hyperathletic quarterback comes to college they run a lot, was coaching malpractice not to let Bryce develop the way QBs like him are supposed to. Change in philosophy will be helpful on multiple levels.
  • The 2023 mission was get JJ to the championship game healthy. The 2025 mission is run Bryce into the ground.
  • Zone reads are a basketball play; you need to rep it to get a feel for who you can beat, when a scrape exchange is coming, because everyone practices how to defend it. It was the height of arrogance to put Bryce in and expect him to run it.
  • Coaching philosophy change: more go-get-it. Are we a
  • 2026 is a process year: let's see them get better and buy in so they can make a run (comp: 2015).
  • This is a very good, very experienced secondary. Probably can get those guys to play Don Brown I'm-gonna-beat-ya and play Mac/Minter/Martindale complex zone-swapping games.
  • Jay Hill does a great job of running confusing defense without confusing his defense.
  • Minter got it: in college you can threaten and threaten without running what you're threatening.
