[QUOTE="RonJohn, post: 840652, member: 2426"] I see a lot more coaching issues than simply replacing the DC would fix. On defense, the secondary isn't being taught a plan for coverage, doesn't understand the plan for coverage, or just doesn't follow what they are being taught. The coaches should teach, simplify, or sit players to fix whichever the issue is. That could be placed on the DC. Time management is awful. That is not on the DC. The offense looks better this year. However, on the first drive in the third quarter there was an issue with making substitutions and getting the play call in on time. An offensive timeout on the first drive of a half is not the fault of the DC. I wouldn't expect a major college team to have so many issues with substitutions and play calling. In fact, I don't remember seeing a high school team with as big of issues of substituting players and getting a play call in. This was the 10th game in the third year of the coaches. I am not one of the FIRE THE COACHES RIGHT NOW people, but such mistakes with things that are automatic on most football teams (including down to high school) is not acceptable from a coaching staff. Overall, GT looks a lot more like a team of pick up players who have never played together than a well coached team. If it were only the DC, it would be much easier to fix. If the only change is to replace the DC, then it will only be kicking the can further down the road. [/QUOTE]
