Message: [QUOTE="memcorsu, post: 406740, member: 452"] I am understanding the post and argument. I also hate the prevent, yet the D did what it was supposed to do yesterday and took away the strengths of UL. Teddy has a big arm and can beat you deep. We took that away. They have/had two good backs. We took away the run. We did the same thing with USF. You give them from the 30 to the 30 and when the field shrinks (red zone and just outside) they cannot beat you with those long throws and the secondary can then cheat up and take away the short game. The worst they can do is long to long mid range fg. Same thing in the Cincy game except we bet ourselves with the pick 6 and 2 td drops on 0 (it did not hurt that the officials were hammering nails into the coffin). If we would have played Teddy differently yesterday, he would not have had as many yards passing but would have had a better chance in getting the big "home run" ball and therefore 6 instead of 3. Out of the three corps, lb is the weakest this year. We are keeping the game in front of us and not letting players get behind till we can shrink the field and cover the weakest corp with less chance of letting wr's behind the secondary. I must say that our best corp is the DL, and I think this only gets stronger next year. Secondary could possibly be one of the best ever at SU in a couple of years. We need LB recruits bad or some SS to fill out into lb's. All this being said, the original post is about how many wanted to hang/maul/dismember DM for hiring a "not qualified NFL glory boy" with no OC experience as his OC and how both should be hung/mauled/dismembered for the atrocious O play the last couple of seasons. On the flip side, they wanted DM replaced by SS. Many of whom now are crowing about how these coaches are the best thing since Shredded Wheat. DM has put together a very fine group of coaches on both sides of the ball and this is only going to make our program better/stronger and do it faster. Enjoy this brothers and sisters and lets unite as one Orange and not become fruit salad. Please... [/QUOTE]
