ESPN article about Michigan Football and Nussmeier Hire
Interesting ESPN article touching on the state of Michigan football and how Nussmeier hire was the right move. Definitely highlights our O-line, leadership, and inconsistency concerns for next year. All I'm saying is bring me that Michigan Football season, we'll be great.
I think they really opened some eyes last year the way they ran their corners (and they had really good ones) just sitting out there on an island play after play.
If you can have success there, and it sticks, the safety can come downhill on run support ala Smashem Kovacs. Probably an oversimplification and a display of my lack of defensive philosophy knowledge but hopefully I got the idea across.
The bend-dont-break can keep the D on the field a lot. Get some stops and they get to rest.

is! Running man also lets you know who is getting burned and who can cover. I just laugh cause we always said for years why don't these teams go get big physical corners and just run man to man every play and free up those backers to get after it. I'm just saying this cause we crack up at watching this as its trending now. I'm not a pro coach just someone who watches a ton of football. To this day we still run man only so we know who's fault it is on every play. No excuses
