BTW - I hate to ask this, as this will show how disconnected I became after the Vanderbilt game last year . . . is Pruitt going to run the 3-4, or is he switching us back to the 4-3? Please say 4-3.
thriller, gave others the opening to post to your question.
Having watched a lot of FSU film, Pruitt is totally unpredictable. Supposedly Pruitt is a 3/4 coach, film study does not come close to bearing that out.
If I am the head coach at Clemson, don't have a clue what Pruitt/Rocker and Company will do defensively. All of us know that certain situations call for certain defenses . . . . right? . . . . Pruitt does not follow "certain situations". Not uncommon at all to see 5 or 6 threatening to get after the quarterback. Does cause concern for some. Meaning the defensive backs have to "guess correctly".
Pruitt is a gambler. Probably get beat on occasion, but it still leaves doubt in play calling on the "other side".
Get a chance, go to youtube and watch the FSU/Clemson 2013 game. Entire game is there and notice how our defensde played Clemson and the way that FSU played them. Night and day my friend. No risk, no gain.
