1/3 rules are typically about receiver depth. I don’t remember how deep the crosser was against OSU. I’d have to see the play again. But, listen, it’s Cover 3. You’re gaining an entire defender dropped down, so there will be a trade off. Perhaps what we need to do is disguise it better or mix it with quarters until we catch them. It seems like our defensive coaches have made nice adjustments at times this season, so sometimes it’s really just a pick your risk situation. If you read my posts during the week, I thought Ole Miss would be a pain in the *** to defend bc they get the ball out so quickly. Outside of the explosive run, I thought we did a good job.
Thanks again. Tate crossed ~15 yards beyond the LOS against OSU and #11 did the same thing for Ole Miss. Was the same play just flipped the side of the crosser. The way we adjusted to that play gives me hope Hetherman and Co will figure it out. Lucas got much more depth against Ole Miss and shaded over much more than O'Conner did against Jeremiah and we should have had an easy pick on the play.

Again, you'd know better than me, but my impression is that Hetherman is fine making the tradeoff of giving up some chunk throws when our pass rush doesn't get home, because he's confident that it will get home more often than not, and we do a good job of getting receivers who make 20-30 yard grabs on the ground to live to fight another play. We should be able to pressure Moore/Mendoza a lot more than we were able to pressure Chambliss IMO.

His junior year CB tape was some of the best I’ve ever seen

A lot of high school DB tape is them getting INTs on bad throws and running around

His was a clinic on clamping every route possible

Shame about his injury his senior year

How does it stack up to Patrick Johnson's tapes? PJ's were the best I've seen.

PJ was kind of a different human being

Antoine isn’t that type of freak of nature but from a technical standpoint maybe a better way to put it

Yeah, out of this world stuff. By far the most ****ed I ever was to lose a recruit.

My inquiry speaks to how highly I think of Slime. Nice for us to snatch him from Louisiana. Hoping we can get more dawgs from the Bayou.
 
Based on what I've seen, the Indiana receivers would have hung onto the ball, sad to say.

Maybe. But very few players are able to be as effective when they are consistently and physically challenged all game long. Jeremiah Smith is exceptional precisely because he holds up against that adversity. Indiana receivers have to prove they can do the same on the field against a Miami defense before I'll believe it.

All fair.

I will say I've watched a lot of them and that Becker kid can really play. Sarrat can play, too, but Becker is probably my 2nd biggest concern in a gameplan.

Becker is legit 6'4 with 22.5 mph speed on the field. He is their main deep guy and a PROBLEM for sure. Digging into a couple of their games, their offense as a whole is impressive, their Oline runblocking is dam good and their RB run HARD. TO ME, their oline pass blocking is FOOD but they mitigate that by staying ahead of chains and RPO heavy in pass game (Highest % of RPO use in nation). Their WR core as a whole is very good, especially in the confines of their system. But Becker is a player avg 20 yards a catch, Sarratt is physical at the catch point and contested catch.

In true pass protection situations I have seen them struggle, Right side especially, Tackle got benched in OSU game, RG is leaky also. LT is usually solid but he had real trouble with Kenyatta Jackson and by second half was essentially tackling him with no flags thrown. We got to be physical and sound in run game because they are pretty diverse and force them into playing some type of traditional drop back. Im taking my guysm 10 out of 10.
