He blitzes too much for my taste. As a HC? seriously?


It worked out tremendously last year. The aggressiveness played a major role in all of the forced turnovers and big plays caused by Bama's defense. This year, the blitzing has been more out of necessity because the pass rush has been absolute dogshit. They can't generate pressure on the QB to save their lives. Plus his time at Florida State and UGA speaks for itself. He had the #1 pass defense in the country two out of three years he was the DC at UGA and Florida State. The man's a tremendous defensive coach.

Yea I love Pruitt as a DC. He's fvckin awesome. Sure the blitzing didn't work some this year, but like you said, he's trying to create pressure that the Front 4 created last year. He isn't going to sit back and just play base like the former DC. I'm fine with getting beat some because you are trying to make plays.
