You're diagnosing a scheme issue, but the real problem has been a complete talent deficit that the portal is finally fixing. You can't run an aggressive scheme when your previous players were physically overmatched in the Big 12. The new defensive coordinator is installing his system with athletes who can actually execute it. Those brutal stats from last year were with a roster full of guys who wouldn't start elsewhere in the conference. Spring game footage is vanilla by design, it's not the actual playbook. Once these new transfers gel, you'll see a completely different unit with the speed to play attacking football. The narratie is shifting because the personnel finally matches the ambition.
