Telling stat on discipline

[DMoney]

Penalties, while not a perfect indicator, can reflect discipline. New England regularly ranks in the Top 5 under Bill Belichick, for example.

I wanted to see how this applied to our coaches. The data on penalty yardage per game goes back to 2003 and tells an interesting story.

Larry Coker led an undisciplined group. Miami ranked 112, climbed to 82, then dropped back to 102 and 107.

Randy Shannon cleaned things up at first. In his first year, the team jumped sixty places to 47. It steadied at 48 the next year, and then dropped to 80 before bottoming out at 115.

Al Golden followed a similar path. In his first year, the team jumped 85 places to 30. It was 76 the next year, then 45. When the team gave up on Golden, it got ugly. We were 111 in '14 and then 128 (last in the nation) the year he got fired.

Mark Richt's path was steadier. The initial jump from last place was modest (ten spots to 118) before a meaningful to leap to 45 which sustained at 48.

Manny Diaz is the most consistent of the group. Not in a good way. When Manny replaced Richt, we dropped almost sixty spots to 103, dropped again to 112 and currently sit at 113 in the nation.

Combined with not knowing how to tackle and almost always being out of position

Let's be honest with ourselves: Manny sucks at just about everything except crashing recruiting parties.

We routinely give up a football field worth of penalties along with another football field in missed tackles

There is not a single thing that got better under Diaz. Lala land pipe dreamers telling us he needs time. He is making us worse.

Combine this with the most missed tackles in the nation and holy **** its bad. There's no defending it whatsoever. And by "it" I mean any offense we face that isn't from the FCS.

 

[ScubaCane]

Not only are we great at being penalized but we truly excel at failing to overcome costly penalties, particularly on offense. We do a heck of a job of killing momentum on offense with horrible penalty after horrible penalty.

 

[Hurracanes]

I have no idea why I found this so funny.

 

[TriStarCane]

Poor fundamentals
Terrible leverage
Guys not knowing where they are supposed to be

= Penalties

 

[Gransapo]

Don Shula's Dolphins teams were annually always near the top of least penalized teams.

 

[DrewZ2]

I will say when the camera pans to him after a call, he has a look on his face like he doesn't know wtf they just called or why it was illegal.... I don't think he has a good grasp of the rules to begin with but that is in addition to the lack of discipline

 

[ChinstrapCane]

Manny needs to fire the DC.

 

[cowboycane]

We just do everything poorly.

For shyts and giggles, how does Saban rank?

Generally excellent but he had a down year in 2019 and is ranked around us this year.

Probably ranks first in yanking player out of game after dumb penalty

 

[Hurracanes]

Generally excellent but he had a down year in 2019 and is ranked around us this year.

I bet many of those flags were to keep the game closer for ratings.
