So they are addressing it. They are recruiting and hitting the portal. Did I miss signing day? Is there another way?

We had:

 

Robinson 310

Nash 330

Fiest 275

Wynn 305

Drew 280

 

Wouldn't he try to have bigger Dlinemen in the Big Ten then he had at Syracuse?

Not necessarily.  Depends on what you want your linemen to do.  A lot of the time our linemen were read and react or just engage blockers to free up the LBs.  If you want your linemen to get penetration and be disruptive you probably don't want them big and slow like our guys.  From the clips I saw White had his guys stunting and moving a lot.

I understand. How does a a 3rd and goal at the 1/2 yard line work against Wisconsin’s O Line if our D line is all 260.

Submarine and shoot gaps.  Have aggressive lbs.  There are ways to make it work if you have well coached willing players

Simple. Don't let them get that close in the first place

Don’t be ridiculous. We won’t have 6 players at 260 on our d-line. 
 

especially since he says there will be more 4 man fronts. Maybe a shooter/twister here and there but we’ll have players that can match up. Even a big difference btwn 260 and 290+ 

[Cornbred]

What about what McBride did with the lb up on the line in the gaps. QB never knew who was coming or backing out. Is that where people think Rhule is heading? Just asking a silly question here. Could what McBride ran work now?

They've given up on running the ball so we'll probably be in Dime.

Until the offense is in spread.

Don’t be ridiculous. We are going to 11 260 lb players on defense. It’s something brand new.

Hope he's as good as advertised. He sounds better than Chinander at least.
