BYU plays a cinco, a flash and a rover. BYU defensive coordinator Ilaisa Tuiaki attempted to explain how we got here. "So really, the flash, nickel and cinco are all pretty much in the same spot on the field with different bodies," he said, noting it's a way to categorize players for different packages. But this is how it happened: Dave Aranda, now head coach at Baylor, used cinco at Wisconsinwhen he was defensive coordinator. Chad Kauha'aha'a, who was the Badgers' defensive line coach, brought it to Oregon State when Tuiaki worked there, and Tuiaki brought the name with him to BYU. Assistant head coach/safeties coach Ed Lamb called one of his safeties a flash when he was at Southern Utah. So head coach Kalani Sitake and Tuiaki took a position known as the stud that they used when they worked for Kyle Whittingham at Utah and renamed it the flash at BYU. Does all that make sense? "We sit here and we scheme as coaches, and just talk 'round and 'round and finally make a decision and then we're finally waiting to name it," Tuiaki said. "That seems to be the hardest thing."
