Message: [QUOTE="anomander, post: 1875489, member: 2766"] One thing that is glaringly obvious on defense is our size. LB's are all undersized and have a very hard time getting off blocks. The whole defensive backfield is tiny. The only group that has some size is the DL, but that is the most inexperienced unit. I understand that these guys were recruited for an entirely different defense, that emphasized more speed over size, but even their speed (which is questionable) can't make up for their lack of size in this defense. We really need to upgrade the talent...and size on that side of the ball. If there are some blue chip recruits that want to come in and play right away at DB, LB, or DE, then Syracuse is the place because we need a major overhaul with that unit. The cupboards are definitely bare. [/QUOTE]
