Re: ONE MORE YEAR...with Chase Thomas - socalstanfan1 - 01-08-2012

I haven't ever heard anyone on the coaching staff mention this, but coming out of HS most scouts/recruiting websites considered Blake Leuders a DE, believing that his frame would hold some extra weight and that he might not be athletic enough to drop back in coverage.  I wonder if, given the logjam at OLB, Leuders might drop down into a DE position.  If the coaches did that, and moved Vaughters into the MLB position, the depth chart would be a lot more balanced.

I would guess that P. Skov's position might just depend on how he competes, as well as injuries.  If he can show enough at FB to move right behind Hewitt, he could stay at FB, especially if there are any injuries there.  On the other hand, I'm sure the coaches want to put the best players on the field at each position.  If P. Skov can work his way up the chart at MLB, more power to him.

In Stanford's 3-4 defense, don't OLBs play as DEs on many plays?  Not sure what you are proposing, socalstanfan.

I know the Bible exhorts us to have the faith of little children... - Redrum - 01-08-2012

But before we write in Shane Skov as a major force on defense-- or even expect him to play at an average level--  whynch'a  review again just how busted up his knee was.  He might not come back all the way.  He might not get into form until midseason.  His quickness might be diminished. 

Just sayin'...
