1994 Husker Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 (edited) ...IDK about you other fellow husker fans but this assistant has me the most excited..if you watched game play of Our linebackers, rewind, watch, rewind and watch..you picked up on a never ending theme..they were always, well, more oft than nought, out of theor position...if you remember player Rudd, he was always in positions..if he knows anything, he knows all about teaching our backers to be in the correct spot on a given defensive play.. i suppose i need need to change my handle..I’m no longer “depressed”..this is first time since perhaps early 2001 football season, I’ve had hope...and I believe my “hope” is absolutely justified now in the person of Mr Frost... many coaches know the Xs and O’s of football inside and out, yet don’t possess the the other required intangibles and tangible gifts and talents a organizational leader must have..I’m persuaded Mr Frost has it ALL to put Competitive, well versed in fundamentals teams on the field..I think he will also do it sooner than later...it will be awhile before he rises the program and installs systems that churn out national title team caliber teams ever year like Ohio state..but he will make teams work to get a win against his husker teams..

brophog Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 Our linebackers have been terrible for a long time, that's why we got them two coaches. Quote Link to comment
Truth in Ruin Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 The only way our linebacker play could be any worse is if they (linebackers) turned into frogs, and tried to swim across a river, or a lake with scorpions on their backs. Quote Link to comment
Crazyhole Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 Ruud played in a 4-3, which gives linebackers a completely different assignment. It's definitely a good thing that he will be coaching the inside backers as their job in a 3-4 is much closer to what Ruud was doing at MLB than what the OLBs are being asked to do.

lo country Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 IIRC, Ruud talked about Bo really upping his game in 2003. Bo taught him about pursuit angles, reading plays etc......Seemed to help Ruud......Hoping this and his time in the pros really improves our LB play. We need it. Quote Link to comment

That's great in all - but this thread is about Rudd and FUN!!! In all seriousness - It will be nice to see another young NU kid growing this team!!

I haven’t seen anything saying that we’re still going to be a 3-4. Have you seen that somewhere? i doubt we stick with a 3-4. Quote Link to comment

The D is going to have 2 LB coaches, one OLB and one ILB (Ruud, or Rudd if you like that spelling). Edited December 16, 2017 by ColoradoHusk Quote Link to comment

The thing I don’t understand – you guys know more about it than I do now – you know, there's a three-technique, a five-technique and a one-technique. This guy's got his hand on the ground and now it's a 4-3. Now he's standing up and it's a 3-4. It's going to be a multiple defense. Sometimes it'll be four guys with their hands down, sometimes three." - Erik Chinander Quote Link to comment

Danimal Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 He's currently listed as the defensive quality control analyst, same as at UCF. So who gets that job when Ruud officially becomes LB-coach in January? The offensive quality control analyst Verducci actually has a pretty extensive resume, and he was gotten while Frost was still at UCF. Could get somebody pretty good in that spot.
