Scapegoat Guidry

This is the thing I just can’t understand. You see the defensive performance each week and say to yourself “yep, let’s just keep doing that.” It’s truly astounding.

Gt dogged whoop us on the ground attack but we also blamed the secondary for that game. Guidry has to go but someone needs to get this fan base more knowledgeable with schemes and responsibilities
 
I know more about football than most on this board, Lancy Guidry and his defensive staff had a terrible year, and so did the players. Typically what that means is: the guy who coordinates the terrible defense is replaced, and the team finds new players.

We have an entire season’s worth of games as our sample size. Guidry’s unit regressed over the course of the entire season. Keeping him for another year would be an egregious mistake. An elite defensive coordinator would be able to game plan effectively to at least slow down an air raid offense in a high stakes game( let alone after going up 21 points). You don’t need 5 star athletes at every position to achieve this. Guidry may be an above average coordinator but he is far from elite. We need elite! The whole notion that we have to recruit/portal talent so good that it can overcome Mario’s deficiencies was referring to his game day coaching ineptitude and not to the coordinators.

He's not above average; just average at best

I am not defending the man..BUT

the majority of canes fans, myself included, felt Guidry was a good coordinator based on his season last year with a vastly more talented defense.


Now the fanbase wants him axed.


I’m playing devils advocate here. Is he really to blame? Or is “recruiting ace” Cristobal to blame for not finding adequate “jimmys and joes”?

I think it’s the latter. i think our talent on defense was worse than we all thought going into this year.

He is the DC, so he shares equal responsibility for acquiring defensive talent. He and Mario both failed miserably in this area and Mario isn't going to fire himself (one can hope though)

Yes, players were substandard. But Guidry did nothing to scheme and playcall in a way that reduced the deficiencies. He constantly had the line stunting inside, as teams kept attacking the undefended edges. He often made no adjustments until after halftime. He changed how Kiko was used compared to last year, often negating Kikos strengths and exposing his weaknesses . Against Syracuse for some odd reason he had DEs cover backs out on the flats at least 4 times that I saw, probably more than that...i just happened to notice the times we got burned on them.

When your entire unit looks bad against the run and pass; that's on the coaching... I keep reading about in-game adjustments; my question is why defense was never prepared going into a game. Even the games we won the 1st half was brutal on defense

The secondary's blame in that was the missed tackles and embarrassing angles. Yes, they weren't the first line of defense against the run, but when RBs got to the 2nd level the secondary was terrible at tacking them, allowing 7-8 yard runs to turn into 20 yd runs

I called The bullsh*t last year when people was scared he would leave. Saw right through, yes the players are making mistakes but we look unprepared in each acc game we have played other than fsu and wake forest which is unacceptable

Cristobal may deserve some of the blame. How much? Not sure. But he aint gonna fall on the sword. He's the HSIC. Guidry, on the other hand, probably will, and should. Truth is last year is the past. He was good then but not now. Why is of minimal concern as I pay to watch the product. They are paid handomsely, and deserve every ounce of scrutiny directed their way.

Reality check: A few people on this board don’t constitute “the fan base”.

We have reached the “not well liked” rumors level of the game.

Not well liked: Gattis, Addae, Guidry

Imagine spending all that time interviewing ******** only to realize too late that they are ******** that also aren’t what you need to succeed. It is like not kneeling more than once. That’s a lot of failures for a super savvy alpha.

From “elite human beings” to “not well liked” when the success is not there!!!

God I love Miami Football!!!

It’s because Mario takes so long to make a decision on who to hire the only coaches left are A-Holes no one else wants…
