We have the worst defense in the country

Postby ojaipony » Thu Oct 08, 2015 7:18 pm

No fight. No competitiveness. Not a single guy on that side has any nastiness. There I said it. Defense is all about passion and energy especially if you don't have talent. We have neither. Very sad.

It's almost like recruiting all these guys for the past few years who shouldn't be playing D1 ball is having an effect.

Same players learning a new scheme they weren't recruited to play in (implemented by a first-time DC no less). Everyone knew there were going to be growing pains.

He's too lazy to read twitter much less block anyone on twitter. The fact that he had 12k or whatever amount of followers was such a joke. Wonder how much it cost to buy all those followers.

The bad defense sure comes up with a lot of turnovers, at least we got that going for us.
