Recruiting Forum Football Talk IX

is it the players on defense are not that elite or the defensive scheme is not good putting players out of position to make plays....or both?

Syracuse 377 total yds
ETSU 216
GA 502
UAB 394
MSU 378
ARK 496
It's honestly some of both...Banks wants to play bend but don't break break due to the weakness in our DB, which is a very rational use of what we have with McCoy and Gibson out, but some of the players are taking horrible angles, getting way out of position and missing a lot of tackles when they do get where they are supposed to be.

I have seen this broken down by several YT guys that I really respect...they pretty much say what I just said. They say Banks didn't get stupid overnight and he is doing the best he can with what he has to work with.

I really really hope we get at least one good Safety and one good LB and one huge strong DT out of the Portal this year. If we just had that this year it would make a HUGE difference. I wish we could find another Pili that isn't freak injury prone, and a Jakobe that wasn't greedy...those guys were so freaking good when they were on the field. I hate that those things happened to Pili...IMO he would have been one of those beloved Vol legends if he hadn't gotten hurt both seasons, and now most will forget him except to think he was made of glass. He could have been one of the great ones.
 
What's crazy is in that one clip it showed me the biggest problem that still exist on defense.

One group who is coached by a legendary coach (RG) had a 300lb grown man hustling his backside off to make a play 20+ yards down the field....

One group who is coached by the DC and S coach had 2 of his guys do bare minimum to slow down the runner....
Yeah
 
this would effectively obliterate our recruiting
Why?...why should he get paid to do nothing...IF...he was cleared to play? This is bullcrap...nobody is owed something for nothing.

I don't think, or at least I hope that doesn't happen...I'd rather him just never get cleared to play than deal with that mess.

He didn't even get injured on the field or while doing team stuff for craps sake from what I understand.

Why do we owe him for nothing..IF?

I mean the ref thing is obvious. Did y’all forget which team you’re cheering for? I agree that could be a big difference….BUT consider this.

With the house of horrors that was SEC officiating this past weekend and even guys like Josh Pate clowning on it league wide I think there might be a chance we see an even whistle. That’s just my thoughts on that. I will also say that we just won a game against a statistically better offense than what Bama has that was penalized all of 1 time in 4 quarters. Food for thought.

The SEC has no morals or integrity. They don't care what anyone thinks. The corruption will continue until the league office has been totally purged and removed from the state of alabama.
