Monday mornings are the best!!!!
 
You can say whatever you want about DJ. I won’t push back, but their coaching staff is just bad. DJU is 29-10 as a starter in his career. Last year at Oregon State they went 8-4. They won games. As a coach, you scheme around your team and players. His numbers are not great, but not brutal. I get, the talent at Clemson helps here for sure. But, FSU being 1-4 is indicative of that coaching staff, not solely on DJ.

Let’s look at his first interception. This will show you how brutal FSU play calling and staff is.

It’s 3rd and 2. On the 49.

The called a rollout to the left (DJ is a right handed thrower). It’s a 2 man smash concept. Outside x runs a 5 man hitch. Inside runs a route idk what it is. Clearly not a corner route. Looks like an out route. 1st of all, DB makes an insane play.

1. It’s 3rd and 2. Why are you running a 2 man concept.
2. Why are you rolling left for a right handed qb on a critical down.
3. Route concept is terrible. It’s man. Outside receiver is pressed. He runs a 5 yard hitch, no route variation and is eaten up. The slot runs a 20 yard out. Idk what he is supposed to run, but I guarantee it’s a terrible route. But again, it’s 3rd and 2! Why are you running a 20 yard route.
4. Backside receiver, runs nothing. Literally. Not even a drag. Is just removed from the play essentially.
5. The worst part. You went empty. Two TE to help max protection. Idk if I have ever seen an empty formation equate to a two man concept.

The next 3rd down.

1. In an illegal formation. Not sure if it’s called, but good job lining up correctly.

2. SMU goes all out blitz

He has maybe two hot routes. But 6/7 man box. All out blitz, TE or RB should be staying to help protect. But the LG gets blown off the ball SOO bad, DJ doesn’t even complete his drop back and already has a defender in his face. He actually makes him miss.

3. But the “all American” tackle gets beat and the rest of the oline does too and DJ gets rocked.

Norvell and Co stink! The team stinks! DJU is what he is. But that staff is doing a disservice to him. They should issue a public apology.

I suspect by the time fsu comes to play us, they’re playing the backup not dju. They may have a few of their top players sitting out quitting on the season. Some younger guys maybe playing a lot for them to give them reps for next year. Just not sure at what point mike gives up and gives the younger guys playing time over upper class men

I would suspect there will be more than just the backup QB in at that point. I think most of the team quits on them, at least the ones that have some skill, once Clemson destroys them.

Most knew this going back a few seasons. Travis bailed them out of these types of plays improvising. Fools gold as many speculated.
