Bigger problems than that. Tampa 2 is losing effectiveness because you can't press receivers, so you basically have two safeties with enormous territory to cover and receivers getting a free release to go deep. Secondly, it demands that your middle guys keep garbage out of the middle. With increased enforcement on hitting defensive receivers, safeties can't enforce the middle.
No to the Tampa 2. While Im not a fan of kiffin, I am a huge fan of him running the 4-3 under. Unlike the Tampa 2, a declining defense, he under is an up and coming defense.
