Message: [QUOTE="Powellfan, post: 4582080, member: 4819"] Gait has blamed last years poor defensive performance on players who were essentially stuck in their ways and couldn’t adjust to their new directives from new coaches. It sounded like he was throwing players under the bus, but during a late season game (I forget which) with the cameras in the defensive huddle, you can hear Petro tell them not to slide. They come out and what do you know not a few seconds into the possession someone slides and they give up an easy goal. It’s really frustrating if the same thing is happening again this season. I feel like at some point the only thing to do is bench guys who aren’t listening. Dwan is supposed to be the guy who was built in a lab to play Petros defense. It feels like he needs to be out there sooner rather than later. [/QUOTE]
