Now this makes sense. This might hurt stopping the run a bit, but pressure on the QB, and being able to run down the QB, is a much bigger plus.
So the Nuss move is unrelated?
Well had we wanted to keep Nussmeier I mean we would have paid for him but I don't think its a situation where he got fired. If anything Saban may be pissed over the game plan for the Sugar Bowl. Nuss/AJ/Napier put together the game plan to let AJ throw it often and deep because to them it was a meaningless game. AJ threw for 387 and the two interceptions were simply a bad look off and a shortarmed throw. They wanted to show he could complete deep passes (a problem since his Labrum was repaired over a year ago).
But we had over 500 yards Total offense with 31 points (despite 5 turnovers and a missed field goal). Our offense is about efficiency and execution. We execute even 50 percent better and convert 3 of those drives we are at 48 points minimum.

Okay, so it seems my OP isn't quite right.
The Nuss move is completely separate from any D issue. The OC opening will be on Coaches Changes board for discussion. So for the D, is it fair to say a little size will be sacrificed for a bit more quickness and speed?

AJ also broke the NCAA record for most amount of time spent aimlessly holding on to the ball in the pocket while confusedly waiting for an inevitable sack.
AJ was exposed in that game. If he isn't throwing to a predetermined receiver, he has no idea what to do.
Alabama gets badly embarrassed in that game without Henry.
