[QUOTE="CornerBlitz, post: 73465, member: 818"] So I sat down and watched the tape this afternoon with my Dad, whom I regard as the best D Coordinator in the state since GOL left for ND. He's also a former GT player with a ton of coaching experience. The question we tried to answer is (1) were we out schemed and if so, is it correctable or (2) were we just not that good defensively. We think their is evidence both ways, but the answer likely lies in the middle. Here is our $.02. 1. CTR left the A gap open all afternoon, often stacking the ILBs on the tackles (3 technique). This was a scheme problem all day long and exploited well by Wofford. Case in point the 93 yd TD. Once the safety over pursued, it was over. No idea what the thinking is here. 2. Our defensive ends looked terrible. Too much indecisiveness on the TO. many times they simply played themselves out of the play. They were obviously trying to slow play the option as opposed to making a decision then playing fast and aggressive. 3. Neely did not play well at all. Thought he looked confused. OL was reaching him all day, sometimes before he even took a step. Curious to know what his reads were, likely not all his fault. Still has a very difficult time shedding blocks. 4. Demond Smith and IJ looked pretty good overall. Glad to see IJ back healthy. 5. Little push from the DTs. This is not a good sign. Thank goodness we don't play anymore TO, because, we did not scheme or execute well. Thoughts on O. 1. Smelter is a beast. Wondering who is better WR this side of Amari cooper. He may be out there, but I haven't seen him. 2. Love the way JT settled down. His quickness running and getting rid of the football is fantastic. Missed some reads, which is to be expected. Have high hopes for him. 3. Laskey runs tough, but missed a lot of lanes that were there or that he simply didn't have the wheels to get to. Tough kid, but not Dwyer or AA. 4. Other than Mason, OL play was average. Center had a difficult time getting across DT. Chamberlain played better than initial impression I had. In summary, I expect CTR to clean some of the defensive alignment issues up this week and hope to see improvement vs. Tulane. Will have problem getting pass rush all season, which means a blitz heavy attack is on order. Really looking forward to maturation of JT. Think he has a chance to be special. [/QUOTE]
