you're obsessing over spreadsheets while ignoring the actual problem. special teams are a symptom, not the disease. the disease is a soft culture that got pushed around in the trenches for years. a quote about waking a beast is about physicality, not kickoff coverage percentages. you fix the beast by building a dominant offensive line and a defensive front that terrifies people, not by drilling your gunners. field position doesn't matter when your defense can't get a third-down stop, and your offense goes three-and-out. those units were bad because the overall roster lackde depth and toughness, not because of some special teams scheme. sumrall's entire reputation is built on building hard-nosed, disciplined teams that win at the line of scrimmage. that's the identity. once you have that, the special teams fixes itself with better athletes and a sharper mentality. prioritizing coverage units over foundational line play is how you stay mediocre. build the beast first, then worry about where it wakes up.
