Lmao with the way you hyping up Rumph in this statement. Ivey and Al blades should have the game of their lives against Clemson receivers.. then.. right?
I'm not hyping him up, just stating the facts, almost all the db's that he coached out the gate, played their best ball after being coached by him, from corn elder, to colbert, to redwine to jackson to young to bandy and now Blades and Ivey. Right now the db room is just similar to what the o-line looked like when coach richt first got here in regards to experience, keep in mind, last year's starters could've been young and bandy. This year it could've been bandy and Blades starting. I'm cool with ivey and Blades, I'm sure Clemson is going to try their best to test our db depth, but our guys are up for the challenge mentally.
A game like this, gets ivey focused, Blades stays focused no matter who the opponent is, this is the type of game those guys came here for, and they looking to pick trev off a few times, the d-line plans on laying the wood, now that we got an offense that the defense has confidence in, this is going to be a good game to show whatever it is that needs to be shown. I'm glad we playing a qb, that people on here won't be able to use excuses now. The only thing that needs to be done, if coach shannon was the d-co, he'd come out the gate playing press-man-cover 2.
With our linebackers in their proper drops in order to react to the run or take care of the crossing routes. Coach shannon would come out and force lawrence to prove he's accurate, than make adjustments from their, no matter who the team, let's see what type of heart baker has, if we starting out in zone, hoping Clemson makes a mistake instead of forcing them into one, it'll be a long day, we gotta be careful with the draws and screens.
The only receiver I got confidence in is dee wiggins on certain routes, quick slants with him is a waste, but post routes, he can get it done, I'm sure rhett is going to hit Clemson with that same look where wiggins caught that bomb, but may try and use a different receiver. This is going to be a game where gaynor, scaife and clark need to be real strong, it'll be interesting to see who starts at left tackle.
