A few days ago someone made a post complaining about Black and his “natural position”. To save people face in the future if you start complaining about black not playing nose tackle his “natural position” try to remember one simple fact. Iowa runs a 4-2-5 defense which doesn’t have a nose tackle. You’re welcome

 

That's the defense we ran in high school

 

Groovy

 

So you are saying Iowa played him out of position?

 

I had to get Mr Peabody to use the Wayback Machine to see that

 

There is so , so, so many players that don't play the exact position they played in college, so IMO it's ridiculous to complain about that stuff.

 

Agreed

 

I love the idea of this guy as theoretically right now it helps is stop the run up the middle which i feel has been an important glaring issue for years.

We don't play a lot of base 3-4 defense but it seems he could be that NT on running downs, unless I missed an article or something states otherwise.

 

Perhaps but asking Logan Lee to do so makes even less sense overall. Black has both the capability and athleticism to become a rock solid NT. Logan Lee is more so a traditional 4i to 5 tech.
