Latest / Buckeyes TomOrrow Morning / Bonus Episode: How Matt Patricia Is Adjusting To A New-Look Buckeye Defense
Transcript
- 0:01Speaker 1: This is a special bonus episode for you. We have
- 0:03Speaker 1: reached the point of the year where we have a
- 0:05Speaker 1: the good problem of we have more good content than
- 0:08Speaker 1: we do have days between now and kickoff of the
- 0:11Speaker 1: ball State game. We are under three weeks to go
- 0:14Speaker 1: to the start of the Ohio State football season, and
- 0:16Speaker 1: we had a lot of stuff to share with you.
- 0:18Speaker 1: On today's show, You're going to get to hear a
- 0:19Speaker 1: bunch from new Ohio State defensive coordinator Matt Patricia. I
- 0:22Speaker 1: guess he's not new this year, relatively new on the
- 0:25Speaker 1: grand scale of things, but he had a lot of
- 0:27Speaker 1: interesting stuff to say about a guy who actually is
- 0:30Speaker 1: a new coach on this year's team. First question Matt
- 0:33Speaker 1: Patricia got asked was about Arthur Smith, the new offensive coordinator. Now,
- 0:37Speaker 1: both of those guys are former NFL head coaches, former
- 0:40Speaker 1: NFL coordinators, so they have a lot of experience and
- 0:44Speaker 1: a lot of wisdom that they can bring to the
- 0:46Speaker 1: college game. What has it been like for Matt Patricia
- 0:48Speaker 1: to have Arthur Smith around and what kind of a
- 0:51Speaker 1: benefit has that been to him?
- 0:52Speaker 2: Absolutely, so much fun to have him here, and you
- 0:56Speaker 2: know it's great obviously just practice all.
- 0:58Speaker 3: The stuff that we're doing trying to work against each other.
- 1:00Speaker 2: Different looks, different ideas, and I'm certainly looking at his
- 1:03Speaker 2: eyes saying, hey, scout the defense for me here. Let
- 1:05Speaker 2: me know what you see some of maybe the disguis
- 1:07Speaker 2: looks different packages, which is great because he's seen a
- 1:10Speaker 2: bunch of that before and you know, kind of is able.
- 1:13Speaker 3: To speak that.
- 1:13Speaker 2: But we have a lot of fun talking about old
- 1:15Speaker 2: stories too, which is great. You know, the history of
- 1:17Speaker 2: the game is really important to both of us, and
- 1:19Speaker 2: he's got a great history of the game, you know,
- 1:22Speaker 2: so it's it's fun to tell those stories back and forth.
- 1:24Speaker 2: And I think what's really cool is, you know, look,
- 1:27Speaker 2: we're just so blessed and lucky to be here at
- 1:28Speaker 2: Ohio State with coach Day who brought us both in
- 1:31Speaker 2: from the NFL and kind of let us, you know,
- 1:34Speaker 2: get that joy of coaching and watching him maybe you know,
- 1:38Speaker 2: maybe go through that a little bit of what I
- 1:39Speaker 2: was experienced last year is kind of fun.
- 1:41Speaker 1: Matt Patricia took kind of a big leap of faith
- 1:44Speaker 1: last year, jumping after more than two decades in the
- 1:47Speaker 1: pros back into the college game. So when Arthur Smith
- 1:51Speaker 1: was thinking about making that move, what did Matt Patricia
- 1:53Speaker 1: share with him about his experience at the college level
- 1:56Speaker 1: last year?
- 1:57Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, I talked to him a lot actually
- 1:59Speaker 2: before and during the process, just because he's such a
- 2:02Speaker 2: great coach.
- 2:02Speaker 3: I have so much respect for him, and.
- 2:06Speaker 2: I mean, I think we've gone through similar things, you know,
- 2:08Speaker 2: in our careers in the NFL. And maybe my perspective of,
- 2:13Speaker 2: you know, getting back to around a bunch of great, great,
- 2:16Speaker 2: great young men and coaching and how wonderful that is
- 2:19Speaker 2: and maybe just telling them, you know, reminding.
- 2:21Speaker 3: Him of that a little bit was cool, I think
- 2:22Speaker 3: from that aspect of it.
- 2:23Speaker 2: And then just you know, there's always kind of the
- 2:25Speaker 2: normal questions like, Hey, what's the difference between the NFL
- 2:28Speaker 2: and college, what's the schedule, what's this look like?
- 2:30Speaker 3: You know, how's what we're doing?
- 2:31Speaker 1: All that. Suff Every time we talk about the Ohio
- 2:33Speaker 1: State defense for twenty twenty six, the conversation always kind
- 2:37Speaker 1: of starts with all the guys who aren't here anymore.
- 2:40Speaker 1: No more Caleb Downs, no more overall Reaes, no more
- 2:42Speaker 1: Sunny Styles, eight starters and all gone from last year's defense.
- 2:46Speaker 1: So do you have to change your expectations and your
- 2:49Speaker 1: plans because of all those guys and the fact that
- 2:52Speaker 1: they're not coming back.
- 2:54Speaker 2: No, no, I wish, you know, it was good, but
- 2:56Speaker 2: I'm sure they're kicking it off tonight and this weekend,
- 2:58Speaker 2: so good for them.
- 2:59Speaker 3: Yeah, you're absolutely right.
- 3:00Speaker 2: So we had like fifty one new players I think
- 3:02Speaker 2: overall on the team, and certainly with the young guys
- 3:04Speaker 2: and the transport guys. It's just a completely different group,
- 3:07Speaker 2: you know, And I think the great thing that's been
- 3:09Speaker 2: interesting to watch through the course of the Spring and
- 3:11Speaker 2: the summer really is those different personalities coming from different areas, right,
- 3:16Speaker 2: So whether it's you know, two from one school in
- 3:18Speaker 2: the SEC, another from the ACC, another from the Big Ten,
- 3:22Speaker 2: and just kind of watching those cultures kind of come
- 3:25Speaker 2: in the building and then get on the Buckeye culture
- 3:27Speaker 2: here has pretty you know, pretty cool. And then watch
- 3:29Speaker 2: our young guys that are you know, that have been here.
- 3:32Speaker 3: Really kind of emerged to lead and kind of showing
- 3:34Speaker 3: the way.
- 3:35Speaker 2: Has been has been really neat Now schematically, obviously, we're
- 3:38Speaker 2: trying to figure out what every wey can do because
- 3:39Speaker 2: we haven't had that development with a lot of these guys,
- 3:41Speaker 2: and they've all done different things in different places.
- 3:43Speaker 3: So Spring was good to see it. Camp is really
- 3:47Speaker 3: important right now really as we're working.
- 3:49Speaker 2: On some fundamentals and stuff to see how those schemes
- 3:52Speaker 2: work with some of the fundamental techniques that these guys
- 3:54Speaker 2: can actually do.
- 3:54Speaker 1: That every dark cloud has its silver lining. So when
- 3:58Speaker 1: you lose all those guys last year, does that maybe
- 4:00Speaker 1: open up some different things this year that maybe you
- 4:03Speaker 1: could can do this year that you couldn't last year.
- 4:06Speaker 3: That's a good one.
- 4:07Speaker 2: I think the last year well was cool was certainly
- 4:10Speaker 2: the guys right here, you know, with you obviously great players.
- 4:13Speaker 3: I think the biggest thing for me.
- 4:14Speaker 2: Was figuring out what could they do, you know, what
- 4:15Speaker 2: do they do well, and how do we fit that
- 4:17Speaker 2: into things, you know, team wise that they can do
- 4:19Speaker 2: well and play fast. I feel we're probably still in
- 4:22Speaker 2: the same boat and just there's probably no history behind
- 4:25Speaker 2: a couple of years of watching them kind of grow
- 4:27Speaker 2: and develop, so or you have to evaluate that soon
- 4:29Speaker 2: to figure.
- 4:30Speaker 3: Out what do they do now?
- 4:31Speaker 2: And yes, I think there are different skill sets on
- 4:34Speaker 2: the field now than maybe that what we had last year.
- 4:36Speaker 3: Not better or worse, just different. So it is really
- 4:39Speaker 3: trying to figure out what do they do well now?
- 4:41Speaker 1: Every fall there are always these storylines that turn into
- 4:44Speaker 1: just constant things that we're just always talking about. One
- 4:47Speaker 1: of them this year is the four to three versus
- 4:49Speaker 1: the four two five, And you know, do they want
- 4:51Speaker 1: to play nickel as much as they used to? Are
- 4:53Speaker 1: they going to play more three linebacker looks this year?
- 4:55Speaker 1: They certainly have a lot of flexibility there. So how
- 4:58Speaker 1: do you weigh those two different schemes, of those two
- 5:01Speaker 1: different looks against each other.
- 5:02Speaker 2: Yeah, I do. I do think we have a lot
- 5:04Speaker 2: of flexibility, which is nice in both in both groups,
- 5:07Speaker 2: which is great. Hopefully we can use both in those situations.
- 5:11Speaker 2: It's interesting, you know, the game of football kind of
- 5:13Speaker 2: cycles through, you know, and what is what was old
- 5:16Speaker 2: is new and as kind of nice person.
- 5:18Speaker 3: So I see a lot more of those bigger groupings
- 5:20Speaker 3: coming back.
- 5:20Speaker 2: So obviously the bigger the offense gets, then we have
- 5:23Speaker 2: to be able to hold up to that, and so
- 5:25Speaker 2: maybe the third line background the field is important in
- 5:27Speaker 2: that situation. And then being able to have the multiple
- 5:30Speaker 2: flexibilities of dbs is good because I think that puts
- 5:33Speaker 2: a lot of stress on the offense. So I do
- 5:36Speaker 2: think we, you know, have to try to figure out
- 5:37Speaker 2: a way to do that as much as possible.
- 5:39Speaker 1: Back in the spring, we thought we had a very
- 5:41Speaker 1: good idea of what the secondary was going to look like,
- 5:43Speaker 1: so a ton of three safety lineups, and then this
- 5:46Speaker 1: fall really haven't seen any of those, or very few
- 5:49Speaker 1: of them anyway, really mostly seeing again four to three
- 5:53Speaker 1: with three linebackers on the field, or a lineup with
- 5:56Speaker 1: the nickel but with three corners out of there with
- 5:58Speaker 1: Jay Timmins in the slot. Really been the lineup for
- 6:01Speaker 1: the most part this fall. So is that three safety
- 6:04Speaker 1: look going away?
- 6:05Speaker 2: I think one of the things that happens for us defensively,
- 6:07Speaker 2: he's always you always have to also look at to
- 6:09Speaker 2: see what offensive personnel is.
- 6:10Speaker 3: On the field.
- 6:11Speaker 2: So in some of those different groups, it could be
- 6:13Speaker 2: personnel based on what we're seeing that you know, just
- 6:16Speaker 2: have that different mix of players on the field, and
- 6:18Speaker 2: I think being in between, you know, if you do
- 6:21Speaker 2: have to have three safeties on the field against like a.
- 6:24Speaker 3: Bigger personnel group, can you hold up for Kenya not?
- 6:27Speaker 2: If you don't, then you go to bigger obviously personnel
- 6:29Speaker 2: up front, And some of that I think in the
- 6:32Speaker 2: back end is honestly figuring out because there are new
- 6:34Speaker 2: players on the field. What exactly are they are they
- 6:38Speaker 2: shake these you know, nickels quarters like, you know, I
- 6:40Speaker 2: think we're still evaluating that through the spring and trying
- 6:43Speaker 2: to figure out, you know.
- 6:44Speaker 3: What are what are the best positions for those guys.
- 6:46Speaker 3: Maybe it's just debous.
- 6:47Speaker 2: I don't know.
- 6:47Speaker 3: We'll let Texas Favors.
- 6:49Speaker 1: Mentioned that they lost eight starters off of last year's defense.
- 6:52Speaker 1: One of the guys they did not lose is Kenyatta Jackson.
- 6:55Speaker 1: So how big was it to get him back? Very
- 6:58Speaker 1: He seems like he's going to be a very big
- 6:59Speaker 1: piece said the puzzle at defense end this year.
- 7:02Speaker 3: It's been great.
- 7:02Speaker 2: You know, I love to be around Kenyatta and certainly
- 7:05Speaker 2: watching him grow, you know, just even from last.
- 7:07Speaker 3: Year getting on the field, having an optunity to go.
- 7:09Speaker 2: Play, watching him kind of really develop his skill set
- 7:12Speaker 2: for the season, but now giving a whole other toolbox
- 7:17Speaker 2: that I think we've built on top of what he
- 7:18Speaker 2: did last year, which is really cool to watch him
- 7:20Speaker 2: do that. So, you know, look, he's obviously a great
- 7:23Speaker 2: player for us. He's out of the field and he's
- 7:25Speaker 2: a leader for us, and you know, we're going to
- 7:28Speaker 2: lean on him as much as we can for sure.
- 7:30Speaker 1: Last year's defense, they had the luxury of guys like
- 7:32Speaker 1: Sonny Styles and Arvel Reese and Caleb Downs, where not
- 7:35Speaker 1: only were they incredible athletes, they were also guys that
- 7:37Speaker 1: could just kind of do it all whatever you wanted
- 7:39Speaker 1: to do. Yeah, sure they can do that. So do
- 7:42Speaker 1: they have guys who can do that this year to
- 7:44Speaker 1: give them that kind of flexibility.
- 7:46Speaker 2: You know, last year we were really blessed to be
- 7:48Speaker 2: able to do that with those guys. I think everybody
- 7:50Speaker 2: knows that.
- 7:51Speaker 3: I think this year, I don't know, you know, I
- 7:52Speaker 3: think we're trying to figure that out.
- 7:53Speaker 2: Interesting for us this week, right, So we're in pads,
- 7:55Speaker 2: full pads finally were you know, long practices. So this
- 7:59Speaker 2: week is a heavy fundamentals week, you know, just getting
- 8:01Speaker 2: that work in, get through the end of the week,
- 8:03Speaker 2: evaluate that what that looks like, and then I think,
- 8:05Speaker 2: you know, as we work towards the next week, we'll
- 8:07Speaker 2: start to kind of maybe mix some packages and see
- 8:09Speaker 2: what that actually looks like.
- 8:10Speaker 3: And the biggest thing for me when you lose the
- 8:13Speaker 3: players that walk out the door last.
- 8:14Speaker 2: Year has to be the communication and even though the
- 8:18Speaker 2: talent might be there to do it, if we can't
- 8:20Speaker 2: communicate it on the field, it really doesn't matter at
- 8:22Speaker 2: that point because what we can have with them at
- 8:24Speaker 2: any year or bust to play. So maybe put the
- 8:27Speaker 2: stress on them next week with some of that really
- 8:28Speaker 2: heavy communication to see if we can do that.
- 8:32Speaker 1: Communication is one of those things that college football coaches
- 8:34Speaker 1: get absolutely obsessed over this time of year, on both
- 8:37Speaker 1: sides of the ball and on defense. When you're looking
- 8:40Speaker 1: at communication, does that start with guys who are veterans
- 8:43Speaker 1: like Jalen McLain.
- 8:45Speaker 2: We'll always kind of put the stress of the communication
- 8:47Speaker 2: in the middle of the defense because obviously then they
- 8:49Speaker 2: can echo out, you know, to their side. So the
- 8:51Speaker 2: linebacker sitting in the middle, it's gonna.
- 8:53Speaker 3: Start with, you know, certainly Peyton and Christian, you.
- 8:55Speaker 2: Know, TJ and Riley are coming along with your long
- 8:58Speaker 2: Rye too, which is great. And some of the young
- 9:00Speaker 2: guys too stepping up. And then the safety who passed
- 9:03Speaker 2: to communicating. Certainly Jalen, you know, being here under me
- 9:07Speaker 2: last year, the burbage is the same for him, and
- 9:10Speaker 2: so now it's just kind of relating some of the
- 9:12Speaker 2: burbie wed last year to Hey, what do you think
- 9:14Speaker 2: about this? What do you you know, and it was
- 9:16Speaker 2: great last year with Caleb and Jalen back there. We
- 9:18Speaker 2: could have these conceptual conversations. And so now it's a
- 9:21Speaker 2: lot of me and Jalen having that, you know, as
- 9:23Speaker 2: we're trying to catch up those other young players and
- 9:25Speaker 2: new players.
- 9:25Speaker 3: Two to turn round.
- 9:27Speaker 1: Well A State lost all sorts of veterans off of
- 9:29Speaker 1: last year's defense, but they also brought in some veterans
- 9:32Speaker 1: from other schools like Earl Little from Florida State, Christian
- 9:36Speaker 1: a Legro from Wisconsin, James Smith from Alabama. Those guys
- 9:39Speaker 1: aren't are they're new here, but they're not new to
- 9:42Speaker 1: defense or new definitely not new to college football. So
- 9:44Speaker 1: how much is having imported veterans maybe benefit them this year?
- 9:49Speaker 2: You know, actually was going to look at this, I think,
- 9:51Speaker 2: do we even more snaps on the field potentially this
- 9:53Speaker 2: year of guys returning them we did last year? We might, right,
- 9:55Speaker 2: we might from that, yeah, at this time, So I
- 9:58Speaker 2: think that'll be interesting for me. What I feel about
- 10:00Speaker 2: that experience really is, Okay, we get in the game,
- 10:04Speaker 2: it's going to be not a hopefully a lot of panic,
- 10:06Speaker 2: like you're just going to go experience. I think young
- 10:08Speaker 2: players or guys that haven't played a lot, the game
- 10:10Speaker 2: can get pretty you know, me a lot of stress,
- 10:13Speaker 2: a lot of panic in those deals. And I think
- 10:14Speaker 2: what you're looking for is we're a defense to be
- 10:16Speaker 2: you know, not panic, patient and be able to read through.
- 10:19Speaker 2: So I will lean on that experience to make sure
- 10:21Speaker 2: the patience is there schematically, though, you know, I think
- 10:24Speaker 2: it'll be whatever we feel is best on the field.
- 10:27Speaker 1: Of the guys who are back from the previous year,
- 10:29Speaker 1: how many guys do they feel like they can really
- 10:32Speaker 1: depend on from those returning players.
- 10:35Speaker 2: I mean, I'm gonna lean obviously in the guys that
- 10:36Speaker 2: are on the field the most last year, you know,
- 10:38Speaker 2: certainly with Jalen and Kja and Jermaine. I like where
- 10:42Speaker 2: Peyton's at, you know, in the middle of defense. He
- 10:44Speaker 2: played a little bit for us last year, which was
- 10:46Speaker 2: great for sure. Guys up front, you know, we're gonna
- 10:49Speaker 2: have to lean on Edric and certainly Will Smith and
- 10:52Speaker 2: some of those guys to be able to.
- 10:53Speaker 3: Kind of hold up in there. So it's been good.
- 10:56Speaker 3: We've actually been rotating a bunch of guys. It's been fun.
- 10:58Speaker 1: One of the guys they have to place from last
- 11:00Speaker 1: year's team is nose tackle Cayden McDonald. He was just
- 11:03Speaker 1: an absolute force in the middle of that defensive line.
- 11:06Speaker 1: It is not something they have every year, So if
- 11:09Speaker 1: you're trying to replace Cad McDonald's, that's something you just
- 11:11Speaker 1: almost by necessity, have to just do by committee. This year.
- 11:15Speaker 3: Yeah, I think it'll be committee early on.
- 11:17Speaker 2: I do. I really think, especially as we kind of
- 11:19Speaker 2: work through the season and gain experience by those guys,
- 11:23Speaker 2: and certainly from you know, throughing the year, you kind
- 11:26Speaker 2: of trying.
- 11:26Speaker 3: To build those reps up as you get ready from
- 11:28Speaker 3: the long halt, committee would be great.
- 11:31Speaker 2: It's really hard to replace really good players in the
- 11:33Speaker 2: middle of the defense. I do believe that though. I
- 11:36Speaker 2: believe it's important to be strong in the middle of
- 11:38Speaker 2: the defense, and certainly coming from my background at New
- 11:41Speaker 2: England and having guys like you know, whether it's Keith
- 11:43Speaker 2: Trailer or Vinci will Forth or you know, any of
- 11:46Speaker 2: those guys Ted Washington back in the day.
- 11:49Speaker 3: I mean, those are some big boys rolling through there.
- 11:51Speaker 3: So I don't know.
- 11:53Speaker 2: I think if you coach linebackers and kind of sit
- 11:55Speaker 2: in that second level, the bigger those dudes.
- 11:57Speaker 3: Are upfront, the more comfortable you feel, so you'll like
- 11:59Speaker 3: that for sure.
- 12:00Speaker 1: How much time do you spend thinking about what you
- 12:03Speaker 1: have to replace and what you lost after last year's
- 12:06Speaker 1: team versus figuring out, okay, you just set everything from
- 12:10Speaker 1: last year's side and you just start from scratch and
- 12:12Speaker 1: figure out what you're good at this season.
- 12:15Speaker 2: You know, I would say this, I think last year
- 12:17Speaker 2: was great. Those guys were unbelievable. I was, you know,
- 12:20Speaker 2: super lucky that, you know, so much fun to be
- 12:22Speaker 2: around those guys, and and really the process up to draft,
- 12:25Speaker 2: post draft training camp, being in contact with them, talking
- 12:28Speaker 2: to them through camp and you know, excited for them
- 12:31Speaker 2: for this weekend is awesome.
- 12:34Speaker 3: And I love that.
- 12:35Speaker 2: I love that relationship and I love, you know, love
- 12:38Speaker 2: hearing from them, and I you know, I love having
- 12:40Speaker 2: that connection with them for sure. But as far as
- 12:42Speaker 2: this year, you know, we just you have to move on.
- 12:44Speaker 2: You know, every year's a new year and you start over,
- 12:46Speaker 2: and that's what we had to do. So it's really
- 12:48Speaker 2: we've moved on from last year. From that as far
- 12:50Speaker 2: as the Buck guys on field, you know what we had,
- 12:52Speaker 2: and now it's really trying to figure out what we.
- 12:54Speaker 3: Have this year.
- 12:55Speaker 1: We spent a bunch of this fall talking about three
- 12:57Speaker 1: linebacker sets that is the three in the fourth if
- 13:00Speaker 1: you hear us talking about a four to three defense,
- 13:01Speaker 1: and it looks like they will probably be playing more
- 13:03Speaker 1: three linebacker sets this year. So what has Matt Patricia's
- 13:07Speaker 1: seen from the linebackers so far this camp that has
- 13:10Speaker 1: him feeling good about their ability to do that?
- 13:12Speaker 2: I think last year, obviously, I'll take two sixty five,
- 13:15Speaker 2: two hundred and forty five pound guys that were like anytime,
- 13:17Speaker 2: those are great, but we really we have like two,
- 13:19Speaker 2: you know, like like two guys out there that we
- 13:21Speaker 2: were kind of rolling. I feel to your point, I
- 13:23Speaker 2: feel like we have a good depth group that is
- 13:26Speaker 2: all learning and kind of really growing at the same time.
- 13:30Speaker 3: So that, I think is what's really neat is that
- 13:32Speaker 3: Peyton's in.
- 13:33Speaker 2: TJ's in, Riley's in, you know, Eli leeahs in, Christian's in,
- 13:36Speaker 2: and I feel like, hey, we're good. Communication is good,
