This was a philosophy that both he and Chavis shared to get more speed and athleticism at every position...He converted several D lineman into O lineman. Said his reasoning was D Lineman were usually meaner & tougher.
Seems you don't see that happen anymore
I wonder how many of those guys ended up in the league?This was a philosophy that both he and Chavis shared to get more speed and athleticism at every position...
Convert DB's to safeties
Safties (and RB's) to linebackers.
Line backers to defensive ends.
Defensive Ends to Defensive tackles
Defensive tackles (and tight ends) to offensive tackles
Offensive tackles to offensive guards.
Witten is the most complete TE in the history of the game. Our dinosaur offense in the early 2000’s didn’t get him enough targets. The man was one of the best skill position blockers I’ve ever seenJason Witten was recruited as a DL but soon became a great TE. Jason could block, catch....all with the "attitude".

I’m not a fan of making fun of the second best coach in our programs history, but somebody put a lot of work in to this one so I’ll give them credit. Charlie Weis and Ralph Friedgen as spectators is a nice touch.
