Just keep telling yourself that. There was MORE than enough talent to perform significantly better than they did... but you can blind yourself and throw the players under the bus if you want.
Was it coaching last year?
Or was it the talent or lack there of?
Different year, same results
Talent. When players like Jaron Toney, Devaun Swafford, Dontavis Sapp, Brent Brewer, Justin Coleman and Daniel Hood make up a lot of your defense then you're in trouble. Not a knock on any of our guys, because a lot of them played well given their talent level, but they wouldve never seen the field at virtually any other SEC school outside of UK.
I was saying they are born with the talent they have.
Coached properly to read the backfield, elevate and stop the rush at the point of attack...
