Mario, Please Fire Someone on the Defensive Staff

Elmer Leghorn said:
None of our coaches are close to elite. I thought we had something with Heatherman. Defense was great last year. He has pooped his pants this season.

We get out coached 6-7 games a year, even in some of our wins. Very average coaches

Disagree. Players have been in position to make plays all season and have taken bad angles, missed tackles, etc.

I can explain it like this:

Ed Donatell, former DC for the Green Bay Packers, started doing this **** after the 4th and 26 fiasco against the Philadelphia Eagles.

He lasted about 4 games into the next season with this scheme because of how ******* stupid it was.

The most frustrating thing is, you can clearly see that teams have caught on and have started to take advantage of it and, yet, we have made zero adjustments to when we run it or how to disguise it better. You just begin every game keep hoping for adjustments to be made but we keep seeing the same **** run game after game, with the same players executing it poorly. It’s bewildering that our coaches seem to believe that the results are somehow going to magically improve if they just keep spamming it

That's how football works in the NFL.

The college stat system is outdated.

You said Kirby/Schuman wouldn't let one player beat them. They literally did this year.

If you think brown was good in that game then I don’t know what to tell you. They lost because their qb had 2 crucial turnovers and was terrible

Yeah man. brown was terrible. it was his second best rushing game of the season on the road against Georgia. He was bad. Georgia did a great job against him.
 
The reason I give leeway to Dawson is because he’s obviously not running his full system. He’s already said that the run game is fully designed by Mirabal. The OL coaching and development is subpar.

3rd most. And you comparing a qb to a rb. It is way harder to stop a running qb. Keep making excuses for mediocrity

I still believe in Corey but he’s losing me.

Idk who is at fault but Dunnigan has absolutely no idea what to do in pass coverage. He is guessing every pass play. He is a bigger liability than Thornton at this point, he just has more athleticism.

We get to 3rd down and then we bail coverage.

The RB and TEs could eat all day in the middle of the field it they wanted.

We still aren’t recruiting enough speed on the secondary.

What have we done Bryce Fitzgerald bruh? He looks nothing like the kid from last year. I

How can you blame Hetherman while admitting at the same time that the players (ie 25) are lost. That’s not on Hetherman. Day not doing his job and setting the edge isn’t Hetherman. JJ routinely not knowing his assignment isn’t on Hetherman

2 and 0 have earned the right to play. So have 11 and 17. Pairing 11 or 17 with 9 or 1 is waaaay better than having 9 and 1 out there.

Moving 18 inside on passing downs was a great decision.

24 is unplayable right now. Next week vs VT, Poyser and Bryce should be the safeties with 6, 2, and 0 the CBs. I’d like to see that set to start the game

He’s the coach, you can’t watch 25 do the same thing weekly and continue to not do anything about it.

He is also allowing the bails by our DBs on 3rd down. He’s also still sending the blitz from the other side of the country

I dont blame everything on him which is why I said I still believe in him,

Okay, then who is taking 25’s spot? You want Thornton back there? Day? Who?

Yall kill me with this take. He was mid last year too, same high school open zone but had two elite rushers. You shouldn’t need elite players to field a sound/average defense.

Amen.

Miami hasn't had it's own Bud Foster since the Sonny Lubick days. Coaches who just get results year after year after year, whoever the talent is. Venebles did that at Clemdump.

Maybe there is a reason Cig didn't take him to IU....

But why? Most of them were here last year. There's really no excuse.
There's no accountability on defense - no leaders like last year to keep the guys in line.
