Manny will be calling the defense moving forward!!!

Excellent news. Now he’s even more accountable for the failures

Absolutely true. He just lost Baker as any sort of remotely effective scapegoat after this year if there's no improvement.

I still have no new optimism but I respect this individual decision.
 
More involved. He didn't say specifically that he would be calling plays. He did say that he was not happy with how the D was playing, not happy with leadership of the D, and would be more involved with that side of the ball moving forward.

Here's the link:

He said they made a change internally and the players were notified last night. Said he wasnt going to go into details. Sounds to me like baker has been demoted. We will see if it makes a difference.
 
Diaz is just going to get more involved on that side of the ball. Doesn't mean he's calling plays. But Manny has to understand this fanbase and saw what happens with the two previous regimes when favortism (D'Onofrio with Golden; Searles, J. Richt and old offense with Richt) was a constant issue. At some point, Baker's going to have to go, if Manny starts making excuses like Golden did, then his reign here will be short as he's already feeling the heat from the fanbase. This is at least a start as I never heard Golden once criticize the defense during his tenure.
If that all it was the players didn't need to be notified. He said they made internal changes.

Too late for that ****, why hadn't he already? Loser
 
LOL at the slurpers.

Hes the head coach. If you want him to be DC so bad, which he was mediocre at compared to our legit defenses, then why did you slurpers **** yourselves when he was hired?

Correct. And lets be clear when he mentioned leadership he directly pointed to the players not the coaches. Matter of fact when he said that he doubled down on his stance that his defensive staff is not the issue.

Jesus christ some of you simpletons fall for EVERYTHING.

And then you wonder why we suck. Same morons who jizzed their pants when this FSU fraud said “violence” four years ago.
 
One of his biggest flaws as a football coach, despite his displayed willingness to adjust and adapt, is that he’s simply *too slow* to do so when necessary. He arguably could have corrected the problems his defense initially had a lot sooner than 2018, and it could have meant a significant performance difference.

Part of being a good coach is the ability to identify problems and correct them very quickly. He should have never hired Baker in the first place, but he waited too long to do this and the defense has suffered.

wait five games is too long? too long would be a year in. he saw nearly half the year under blake and stripped away duties
