I felt bad; seriously.

This is week 11. The NC State game was game 7 for our Canes. And the defensive intramural coaches choose to allow this to continue? I appreciate that there wasn't a true spring camp; however, after this many games, that excuse has to be tossed out the window.

Manny Diaz is the HC. He's content with this level of play (term used loosely). It's a middle finger to the fans.

"The Eye in the Sky NEVER Lies" It's clear as day the LB play is subpar, for P5 (heck, even G5) football. I'm certain there are high school teams who would bench these LBs

The fact that he said this was his best game is all we need to know behind the scenes.

I took Cribby on for that, which I never do, LOL. But Jennings was such an obvious bum to me as a recruit that I could not believe it was possible he could be a baller. Passable, maybe. But baller, never ever.

The reason he would look like a baller in our practice is we have 1 run and thats the inside zone. He can do all the bulls h*t he does in game against that. smh.

But not to just crap on him...almost all of the LBS look bad. I dont think ive seen one slip a block all year. Pinkney was good for that atleast twice a game. I mean dude is literally taking on blocks turning his shoulders and just running himself outta the play.

Just came across this on YouTube from the NC State game .

What can Baker actually call to hide this type of linebacker play ? Look at Jennings in these plays man lord have mercy

When you put the spotlight on them like this they can’t help but to make changes. This is criminal if they knew he couldn’t play in peewee league playing like this but kept him out there both Manny and Baker should be flogged!

Baker and Manny got caught with their pants down and now act like they want to make the change. Believe me they are being forced to sit both McCloud and Jennings due to incredible poor play and exposed by videos like this.

After watching that video of Jennings you might as well play with 10 guys on defense. It’s sickening to watch

Make no mistake. These Linebackers are doing exactly what they're coached to do. Which is to engage the blocker/offensive line so the safeties can come up and make the tackle.

There is no fundamental logic or "reading keys" or gap assignment.

Its clear as day that the coaches dont teach that stuff after watching this video. Jennings literally runs straight into linemen and turns his back.

I honestly think the entire defense is predicated on this concept as well because it doesn't seem like all 11 players are on the same page.

I would LOVE to see reporters ask questions that would clarify these things about the scheme or apparent lack thereof.

Yep....BJ hasn’t looked good but I’ve also heard him say he hasn’t been coaches since HS and it looks apparent. cant Remember the last LB that got better under Manny...... which is why Flagg looks amazing now buddy had better HS coaches than he does now.

Our linebackers actively help the blockers block them. I'm at a loss for words.

That pass play where McCloud is trying to avoid the WR on the slant to cover his man and actually picks off his own DB is just crazy. It's so bad it looks like he's trying to set a pick for the NC State WR and has no chance of covering his own man.

This **** is comical. I don't know whether to LMAO or cry. Perhaps I'm doing both. Laughing so hard that tears are rolling down my face.

Idk If it’s them not diagnosing presnap..you look at those first few plays, 44 is reacting but his running with his shoulders parallel to the LOS..that’s a big no no. 6 is also late to react, this allows the Line to get to the 2nd level and get a block on him. Look there no doubt our LBs are more athletic then last years group. But if your not reacting your just playing slow. I knew the drop off from 55 especially would be drastic so I’m personally not at surprised...a lot of ppl on this board Owe shaq a personal apology for the scrutiny he unfairly received here at times. This is what All American level play for 2 years loos like when’s its replaced by avg starter level play

I'm just saying if you have zero ability, studying your *** off watching film should allow you to make plays. These guys are so bad that film doesn't help.

Yah, that technique with the parallel shoulders is aweful. How does our LB coach ever allow anyone to play that way. He also turns his body when taking on blockers like a soft QB trying to lessin the impact. You have to stick your head in the fan and make the play. Even better, shed the block and make the play.

hes being told to play outside leverage and turn plays in, looks like unfortunately ford is doing the opposite and creating a hole, and on the outside run theres a missed tackle,someone is in the wrong gap, jennings is not physical enough to do much more, someone needs to be cleaning up sooner
