The Matt & Seth Show: Defense With No Name
Matt Demorest, Realtor and Lender and I have brought back our (sometimes-)weekly video short. The purpose of these is to show you something on film that you as a fan will be able to pick up on when you see it in the future. This week's is about how Ryan Walters's "No Name" 5-1 defensive system works, and how Michigan will attack it.
If you're in the housing market, Matt's the guy.
There is nothing after the jump because it's video content.

This post is appreciated. Thank you for the sane information and looking forward to your wtka pod tomorrow.

I like these posts. Thanks.

Why is the feature image pointed at the Illinois sideline? We thinking they are going to emerge from the heap of the west?
November 1st, 2023 at 3:51 PM ^
Because the man coaching defense in the middle of that picture from last year's Illinois game, Ryan Walters, is now the head coach at Purdue and brought his defensive system with him?

Also multiple simultaneous signs/signals that would be difficult to identify, decode, and counter in the course of ~10 seconds (assuming none are decoys).
Any claims of "sign stealing" being effective in the highest levels of college football in *today's* game is a joke.

I don't think that was a sign stealing joke. I think mrlmichael genuinely missed the connection between Illinois' 2022 defense and Purdue's 2023 defense.

Seth,
JJ McCarthy is the dragon reborn.

Then why doesn't he play the flute?

You don’t know that he doesn’t.

I don't buy it. If JJ is LTTv2, he would appear to be reaching his peak powers. But the prophecy doesn't fit: 1) Too few burns; 2) Wrong tattoos; 3) Too many limbs.

I want to run, I want to slide
I wanna pick up the Mike that’s blitzing inside
I wanna roll out past the line to gain
Where the defense has no name. . .

I take issue with "there's nothing after the jump". There are comments after the jump, and as much as I love the content, I also love the comments.

I owe you a reply by the way. It's not lost; it's going through drafts.
November 1st, 2023 at 9:14 PM ^
See? Exactly the type of comment I like. :-)

Here’s another comment for you…. I forgot to tell you I ALMOST dressed up in a Michigan hoodie with a pair of binoculars around my neck last night, but I didn’t want to actually talk about the situation, and I knew Amy’s family would have been all over it if I’d opened the door. So I went as a middle-aged financial advisor who just left the office.

Hmm. Are you chicken, or are you wise? I'm going with the latter. Good choice.

If Ryan Walters prefers extreme man, does it make him as susceptible to the same problems as Don Brown? I mean, I am asking whether crossing routes will kill Purdue?
