[QUOTE="steebu, post: 506543, member: 740"] "You've run off one option geek, who are you going to run off next?" 'Bout time we got rid of the sidewalk fan riff-raff. :geek: Unlike #BrightandGay (Ilovetheoption) and #HoneyBadgerNumberOneFan (stylee), I guess I'm in it for the long haul since I got out of GT years ago :D . Gonna miss the option convos if we move away from it. Well said on points 1-8, couldn't agree more. But I have some thoughts on why our defense was never as good as it could be, and I'm going to say it knowing that people are going to blow it out of proportion. Maybe guys who actually played for Johnson can chime in. 1. Depth - quality depth. Can't go full-speed, full contact like Alabama does. 2. CPJ alluded to the fact that the scout team gave the defense "looks" and not full packages. 3. Little film time. I know, I know. Everyone's gonna go, "there's that education excuse again", but it's the truth. Our guys just don't have hours to devote to film study unlike at other places. Support staff at other schools can generate videos for guys to watch on their laptop in bed. Our minimal support staff are too busy with other things. You always hear about opponents' scout teams just can't match the speed of our offense - the same holds true for our scout team emulating the other team's offense. Now combine that with points 1-3 as a backdrop and you've got a recipe for mediocre defense. Just my opinion, though. [/QUOTE]
