"(Defensive coordinator) John Chavis, he's done the same stuff schematically for what feels like forever. It's not very difficult. They do a lot of two-man, a lot of Tampa 2. That's one thing that he's just not going to change." .
"I don't think they will be the same up front at all. They lost a lot of players. I just don't think they are going to be the same." ...
"In my opinion, there's a slow, steady decline of that program. They are going to get the best of the best in Louisiana, but even back when Nick (Saban) was there, they just don't have the same type of players as some other places." ...
"Don't get me wrong, they've been really good for awhile. But they are losing a lot on defense. Athletically, they can reload up front. But developing fundamentally sound players, that takes time, time they might not have this year. So I'm not sure they recover that quickly." .
"If you're not sound, you'll get knocked down." .
"(Quarterback) Zach Mettenberger, to me, is very average. It's going to be really interesting because their offensive coordinator was the offensive line coach, so they had single receiver play-action and just loaded up on the ball. With Cam Cameron coming in as the offensive coordinator, it will be a different offense. It's probably going to open up things a lot more, and Mettenberger will probably be a better fit with doing that. I can't answer whether he can handle that." - See more at:
