Wyoming didn’t hide Wilson in coverage
Speaking of hiding Wilson, Wyoming didn’t do it often.
Here’s Wyoming LB coach Aaron Bohl, via Thomas Ringgaard of Philly Sports Network:
“We were able to so much of that stuff with him that it would help our game plan a lot with blitzes and coverages because we didn’t have to “hide” our middle linebacker, which a lot of teams have to do because at the end of the day they can’t play in space and doesn’t play well because of lack of confidence out there. Logan never got nervous when he was out there alone in space.”
That’s a big deal. The knee-jerk reaction is to think a 240-pound linebacker can’t cover. But based on his numbers and tape, he’ll be able to if asked.
