He is basically running Grantham’s defense with slightly worse results. He just doesn’t blitz the safety from 20 yards away and instead drops a...
I agree with this. At the beginning of every game we sit back in a soft zone and allow the offense to do whatever they like. Our coverage is...
The issue is our defense is making similar mistakes to those that have been made in previous games. It seems that certain players have not...
Correct. GNFP put out his breakdown of our defense versus LSU yesterday. One of the plays he diagrammed showed us crowding the LOS and rushing...
I would rather have a scheme that elevates the talent on hand, than the talent we wish we had. The problem with the idea that talent will make...
The coach allows him to stay on the field in spite of the tape he has put out. The scheme puts them in bad spots, especially with the cushions...
I don’t think Raymond determines the scheme that the secondary plays and how they play it. That is the DC’s job. Raymond’s job is to coach his...
I partially agree with that. But we almost always have 1-2 players who end up covering no one on pass plays, and it results in the defense...
Say what you will about Jimbo, he has a good offensive mind. If we play the same defensive scheme we did against LSU, I am afraid it will be...
Same soft zone scheme, with similar results. This isn’t 10-15 years ago as current QBs come in ready to execute against zone defenses. If you...
But we could get a recently fired college head coach to come in as the DC. If we had hired Odom after he was fired from Missouri in 2019, we...
Our DC is over his head right now. No adjustments, 6 TDs and a FG on 8 drives, etc. I vaguely remember Napier trying to hire a co-DC to help him...
Then why are people bitching about a lack of talent on defense if the recruits will come no matter what?
And LSU scored on 6 consecutive drives without making said error so that logic is out the window. To repeat, they scored 42 points against that...
Toney did it. jk/
The defense actually forced the two interceptions that were made last week. Miller jammed the receiver, creating the chance for Hill to step in...
Scheme trumps talent. And the teams in the SEC we need to beat will have similar to better talent levels. So even if the talent level improves,...
No way in hell should that be the case. We have had 2 previous staffs show what happens when you retain a coordinator who did poorly the previous...
I don’t think he chooses the scheme and coverage types. That is on the DC. They seem to have better technique, and that is what Raymond’s job is.
My wife was asking me if I was mad. I just shook my head and tried to respond calmly while changing the channel.
