I’m not sure Bob can simplify that either. 3-4 ILB’s have more responsibility bc they have to cover more ground.

I’m wondering if this is the issue.
I confirmed it in the other thread.

Iowa plays a 4-3. Specifically, Hitchens played the Will OUTSIDE. He wasn't ever a middle back that I can remember.

Now, in the 3-4, the weak side ILB is similar to the OLB in the 4-3 because your weak side OLB is a pass rush specialist. But it's still an adjustment.
