Cgo_horns Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 Where would you rank PK among active DC in college football? Also I read in some article where they were saying Michigan ran a more NFL type scheme vs what Texas through at Penix causing him trouble any truth to that? Are our pass defensive problems schematic or talent or both? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PK needs more difference makers on D, especially pass rushers. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are our pass defensive problems schematic or talent or both? Michigan was much more complex. They did great job containing Washington in the 1st half with limited pressure. I think Penix held the ball a little longer and was not as confident in his reads vs Michigan compared to Texas. I think PK is a solid DC. Not sure he is a star, but definitely a solid DC. I have always wondered how well he and Terry Joseph work together.. That is not a dig on either coach, but sometimes a paring of coaches makes both better and vice versa Edited January 31 by codaxx 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't say I saw that until the final two games of the regular season and the Big 12 championship game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arizona was doing some very creative stuff on defense, especially in the bowl game. PK seems like the type of guy that enjoys collaborating on his ideas. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He seems to be a VERY active recruiter as well. I don't think he's just going to be going after LBs based on his activity thus far. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
