Or Garrett Stover fit in the run.

Or TJ Alford fit in the run.

I'm intrigued.

I'm intrigued by those four younger linebackers.

So Allegro and Pierce are veterans.

But TJ Alford, Riley Pettijohn, Garrett Stover, Sincere Johnson.

I think one of those guys will figure out how to fit the run by October.

Right.

And it's like, is that, and if that's like, is that what you, if that's not what Allegro does best, but what if Allegro sets the edge against the run down the line of scrimmage better than Zion Grady, then like, or a Quay Russo can, or I don't know.

I'm just wondering about the potential.

variety the potential variety and that are could there just be guys like running on and off the field for this defense where it's like okay like and this is what we talked about again like when michigan won the national championship in 2023 they played like 17 guys on defense

And then, like, I got all excited because Riley Pettijohn, like, played 20 snaps against Purdue.

And I was like, well, no, Riley Pettijohn doesn't actually play.

He didn't even play 100 snaps last year.

Michigan's winning the national championship in 2023, playing, like, 17 different guys, 200 snaps.

And I just wonder if, I wonder, not that that's better or worse.

I think it can help you build depth in the long term.

But it also would be out of necessity because you don't have a Sonny Stiles, an Arvel Rees, or a Caleb Downs.

But I'm just wondering how much variety could be in the variety.

All right, let's do this exercise.
