He did a fantastic job with the personnel he had all year. We got better as the year went along. In the bowl game we held the 12th rated rushing team who is also SEC to 69 yards! If you think someone is magically going to come in and make us the steel curtain you are delusional.
The scheme is...
I completely disagree with your assessment. Players make plays regardless of scheme. If a Mike backer has trouble with run fits in a 4-3 then he will have problems with run fits in any defensive scheme. Repetition and better DL play will help with this although we did do much better in the bowl...
I'm cautiously optimistic about the defense next year. We continue to get a little better athletically thanks to Roof, Pelton and McCollum's recruiting skills. PJD played over his head his entire career and I'm proud of that but I worry about the athleticism of our linebacker's as a whole. Maybe...
I agree. Also our defense played less man and got pressure with a 4 man rush and held them out of the end zone for the most part. Two scores on two incredible plays by the UK QB and Rec. Coach Roof and the staff did a great job!
I understand that we are accustomed to the way it is and the narrative that it takes away from the regular season but every other football division has a 16 team tournament. FBS, Division 2, high school, I don't watch the NFL so I'm not sure about them. Every other college sport has a...
We need to take the power that's ours as the fans funding the present system but obviously we won't. It will take an "event" to get us to 8 and I'm hoping for 16 like every other football division. Events like SEC not in the playoff although they guard against that by not playing anybody out of...
That's why we need a real playoff. I can't get over the fact that college football fans will let a committee tell us who has the worthy teams and who is the worthy conference so ESPN can make more money. Everyone else, FCS, division 2 and every other sport has a real playoff. Yet we sit back and...
Merry Christmas to all on the board. Have fun in Jacksonville. Unfortunately I used my trip budget (and then some) for Dublin. May everyone have a rambling new year.
1. No, there are good coaches and bad coaches. At every level of football there are different factors that determine who is good and who is bad. The UK offensive coordinator said some good things about Coach Roof. Sometimes it's just coach speak. Sometimes it's an honest opinion. I believe he...
