Otherwise it would seem a huge waste if he only plays nickel.

Really not surprising that the DL is behind the other units. I would also expect that the LBs are a bit behind mainly

Outside of Latu I thought there were some other DL transfer guys coming from

It's tough to fix a DL overnight

Agreed. But they are integral to Hill's scheme.

A good to great DL covers a lot of issues

And a mediocre DL causes lots of issues elsewhere.

Hopefully Latu helps now that he's cleared. Jeff Hansen is very high on Latu.

He had other P5 offers, so he's got the potential. And he was a wrecking

Guys, talented senior QBs always take BYU to very high highs. I'm cautiously optimistic we win 8+.

Agreed. BYUs sacks allowed stat will be huge. If Slovis stays upright he could

We may have the best pass blocking OTs in the Big 12. We should be able to do it

BYU's offense isn't the problem

He played every snap at Weber (I mean nearly)

I think in the new D it’s more 4-2-5. Pretty standard nickel package vs 10

Thank you for the info

Awesome stuff...I believe Slovis to be a very solid P5(4) QB

Thank you! This is the kind of info I've been desperately looking for since camp started.

Even if the DL improves by 10-15% over last year, we will be in much better position.
