Position-less and Slash Football

The latest Coach Cal go-to phrase is “position-less” basketball. When describing the 2015 Kentucky Football defense, that term is also applicable on the Tim Couch Practice Field.

As mentioned for the 900th time, DJ Eliot is replacing two elite edge defenders in Bud Dupree and Za’Darious Smith.Mark Stoops and Eliot have repetitively declared that it will take a multitude of players and scheme variation to account for their absence. Continuing to study the roster, I see several listed as “/” or slash players. I’ll explain. Jabari Johnson is an OLB/DE. Other OLB/DE players include Kengera Daniel, Alvonte Bell, and Denzel Ware.
