So coach, could you tell us more about this 3-3-5 defense?
cont'dBeyond the numbers 3-3-5, what Michigan defense coordinator Greg Robinson hopes to put on the field is a unit that's more flexible, with more depth, and better prepared.
Coach Rich Rodriguez's decision to switch to a 3-3-5 defense isn't as drastic a change as you might believe. U-M dabbled with it last season while running a base 4-3 defense. The commitment in 2010 will be more concerted, but the commitment is based on personnel.
"We might have some different terminology," Robinson said. "(But) we are doing a lot of the things we did last year."
Added Robinson, heading into his second season as U-M's defensive coordinator: "I can see some of what Rich talked about when I came here. We're tying it together. I don't know if I've been anywhere where you haven't changed, tweaked something based on your talent."
