How about this one. Dline is all the way to the left and 2 Oline with no one in front of them and 2 pulling Oline. The play going up the C gap.

What I would ask each of them:
Manny:
- With all the focus on tackling this offseason, why were missed tackles still an issue?
- Why did you have Bradley Jennings playing let alone guarding John Metchie?
- All of the true freshman flashed, why didn't they see more playing time?

Lashlee:
- Why the run play call on 3rd and 7 when King was moving he ball in the first Q?
- Why run Cam Harris over and over into Bama's front 7?
- Why run QB power from the inch line with King 5 yards deep coming off a torn ACL/meniscus 9 months ago?
- Reason for the lack of Mallory and Arroyo?

T-Rob:
- Why is DJ Ivey starting?
- Why is Gurvan Hall starting?

What our dumb reporters will ask instead?
- How many diamonds are on the new turnover chain?!

Take it from someone that has covered this program before, I don't know why anyone would bother to care what any of these people have to say. It's all softball questions, anyone with the guts to ask the questions that should be asked left the beat a long time ago. We have by far the worst media pool in the country, bar none.
 
Ivey starting, no sign of Taylor, etc., etc. same old same old. I started to put it in my post in @DMoney's thread, Manny basically is giving himself, the staff, and the team a mulligan for Saturday.

Did a reporter ask him why the #1 DT in the nation didn't see a single rep?
 
So torn by this response.

On one hand he’s right; however, that doesn’t mean he should be sprouting statements like this that are indicative of a loser mentality.

It sends a horrible message to the team.
Facts. How about “they gave us some new looks that we hadn’t seen and we were unprepared for”. or, “we got outcoached in that game, sooo we’re gonna go back in the lab, look at our schemes, look at our personnel, make some changes if necessary to try and make sure that what happened on Saturday, doesn’t happen again.”

None of that would have made the response better. We would have said: “Coach speak. Manny says that every time “

Cause the Doak Walker, Heisman, Maxwell, Walter Camp, Biletnikoff, Outland trophy winners were not there.
