Nansen

I wonder if Johnny Nansen will be UT LB coach after one season with Muschamp. Do their styles mesh?

He coaches with a lot of passion

I know that LB recruiting this cycle has not been great but I feel like there's a lot of recency bias with this. We brought in the top rated LB in the nation last year along with a high 4* and another LB that is getting rave reviews. He also helped bring in one of the top LB from the portal. I think we need to hit the pause button a bit on the panic happening right now due solely to 1 cycle of HS recruiting.

This boards full low football IQ “what have you done for me lately” types. Glad NOBODY on here is apart of the hiring/firing process for coaches here.

I remember when I saw post like this about PK.  And then Sark popped him.  I would not be surprised if Sark popped Nansen after the season.

Schematically, Nansen should mesh better with Muschamp than he did with PK. More man coverage, more aggressive in general is Nansen’s style. I was hoping Nansen’s arrival would help PK evolve, but it didn’t happen.

Where does one find good data on blitz rate and man coverage?

What I had seen shows our personnel typically ran man 5-10 percent more in 2025 than 2024.  Yet probably not many dudes would choose 25 over 24.

What percentage of man coverage would you like to see?

 I'm not panicked over LB recruiting. My question is more operational - how Nansen and Muschamp work together.

Sark makes the decisions at that level.

Nansen and Muschamp love the press man, aggressive, attacking D. Go check out Nansen defenses at Arizona when he was DC.
