Coaches wanted to your thoughts on a situation. My best defender is a 6 foot 1, 245 lb athlete who would demand a double team if put at Nose, or be my best ILB. I dont have much behind him at nose who can demand a dble like him, but i also dont have as dominant of a Lb either. Where would you put him? Should him being looked at as a potential d lineman in college come into consideration?

I would say your best athlete should be at that mike backer, however your OLB's/SS's need to be real studs as well. They need to be able to cover one-on-one in the passing game, rush the passer, and keep leverage on contain. Lets face it, if you're playing good football teams, you can't hide anyone--you'll be exposed sooner or later.

Coach,

At 6'1 245, and PROVIDED HE IS A PLAYER AT THAT LEVEL, in college he may just be made a DE. Of course, he is still a pup (still growing) and unless he plays below the Div.1-A level he would not play D line
at any other position. At the HS level, I would agree with those who say put him at LB. Why make him have to fight through a double team all night long at nose, when he can move and make plays for you? Just a suggestion as always.
