Corey Heatherman revisited..

You know it's an emotional fan board when people are claiming that everything comes down to coaching. Like the #1 team in the country doesn't have coaches who know how to teach high school-level tackling.

It's okay to say sometimes that the players just aren't that good.

Eh, I think it can be a combination of both. I wouldn’t say Duke or Pitt or Syracuse have better players on defense and yet they gave UNC more trouble than we did.

They are obviously coaching tackling but guys aren’t just running wide open because our players stink.

The whole "you're either coaching it or allowing it" thing is cute for a poster, but it's not reality. You can't change your roster mid-season.

I don’t know if he’s good, bad, or drunk. But, the data says he is playing entirely too much Cover 3. And, while the narrative seems to be that ol’ salty Petrino put on a master class tonight, what is the evidence? He threw to his TE and backs.

Nothing crazy or fancy. He identified our weaknesses - LBs in coverage, a Frosh safety who is getting crazy snaps but sometimes confused, late breaking safeties, Corners who intentionally bail into the ether - and just called plays for them. What he did really was a lesson in self-discipline. Those Safety blitzes are stale. The simulated pressure is predictable. And, that QB had the night of his life because of us; not himself.

Db injuries? What does he need, an All Pro DBackfield? UNC’s QB had almost 3x the incompletions against Syracuse. How many of Cuse’s defenders see the field in our jerseys?

This is depressing to read
 
He needs to counter his tendencies. This late in the season, OC’s have a lot of film for what he’s done, this year and last year. Now he needs to start calling it differently. OC’s know how to coach too and if they know exactly what the defense is going to do, it’s not hard to call the play that will beat it. OC’s steal plays all the time. There’s no reason he can’t do the same.

ND is going to attack us the very same way. Why wouldn’t they? They have all the same pieces with way better personnel. We can stand at the podium and preach “execution”’or the coaches can be accountable. Change up the fronts, make ND process some more and see what happens.
