Rumors Tony White to FSU

Scoring Defense would be all that I value.  I have no idea where they ranked with that but that is all that matters.
We rank 20th nationally but 7th in the big ten.  Def good enough to be a 9-10 win team with a competent offense and special teams.  I just don’t feel our defense is that imposing and too often we make an average to below average qb look all conference level for me to be that upset at whites departure 

 
I would look at:

Jim Leonard 

The Army DC (I think they run a lot of 3 man stuff, but I could be wrong)
Army’s DC is Nate Woody. They do run a 3-4 scheme, but it also has flexible tenants like TW’s scheme. Army’s scheme has been described as very similar to the Big Nickle scheme popular in the NFL. Woody’s scheme allows Army to overcome some of their physical size limitations, I would really hate to lose him. That being said I could easily see Woody’s scheme overlapping a lot of what the Blackshirts currently do and be less of a change than going to a 4-3.

There you go!  Thanks!

I would take him in a second.

 
Overall I don't think the DBs have looked as bad as years past.  There is only one that really needs to be replaced and thats because he has a height defeciency.  Butler also didn't rectruit any of these guys and didn't have a dull off season with them. But yeah he got passed over for a NFL DC job that he fealt he was supposed to get.  Rhule says come here because if our D performs well this year White is gone and you can take over

I think the worst part of the secondary has been poor safety play and soft coverage.  I think we just need better safeties and I think the coverage will be corrected by whoever is next.

 
Both have been pretty underwhelming in my opinion.
Agreed.  A little bit of of addition by subtraction if they have the guys. Gifford took really bad angles the last 5 games that lead to extra yards.  He was good to have around as an experienced guy who knows the defense but have to have someone more dynamic at the position
