Ohio State defensive ends

I think Vernon will obviously be the star of the d-line. I think Lawrence will start opposite and be in on running downs, while Rose rotates in and out and comes in on passing downs.

Will Williams be the fourth DE, or will someone else take that?

Also, do you guys see Thad Gibson putting his hand in the dirt at all this season?

I have to admit, I get giddy when I think about our ends. We're just building a tremendous corps of ends.

How much do you guys see Gholston dropping back into coverage this year? I always hated when they did that with him, especially in the NC game. I'd be curious to see who dropped back in to zone more during nickle situations Bobby Carpenter in 05 or VG in '06.

Rose could possibly be the 4th DE behind Alex Borrow.

VG dropping into coverage is ok as long as it's unexpected and also matched with occasional blitzes. Our scheme made it way too easy for Leak.

1) It better have some form of stunt with it...

2) Not sure if it was scheme as much as a lack of an original scheme...tendencies were all true.

Anyway, another topic for another thread....and one none of us really need to revisit.
