With new/young starters in the secondary and at LB one would think the Defensive coaches would have personnel packages and signals worked out by now. I found it kinda odd that Jones would bust out the coaches like this but if its true it needs to be fixed. That secondary is exremely talented so lets set them up for success.

I'm thinking more teams will be going no huddle on occasion after reading that.

I'm not sure publicly blaming your coaches is the way to get more playing time. But that's just me.

Uh oh...I don't think we've heard the last of this. While true, I doubt the coaches wanted this to be out there in the press. Score one for Guilbleaux, he stirs up shite again.

Well, it's true. I mentioned that as being a problem a couple of weeks ago.

Jones isn't the only one saying it:

"When the offense is sped up, we're having a hard time getting the right personnel on the field and getting the right calls and checks in, because we're still looking to the sideline trying to get the base call," junior safety Harry Coleman said. "By the time we get it straight the ball has been snapped, and so sometimes guys are out there just playing ball and not knowing what the call is."

Just curious, but
DID YOU EVEN LOOK TO SEE WHO THE AUTHOR OF THAT BS HIT-PIECE IS?!!!?

Come on people!

Glenn-F'ing-Guilbeau?!!?
Glenn"I'll-make-up-a-story-if-I-don't-have-one"Guilbeau?!!?



I'd bet a ton of money that Jones NEVER said ANYTHING near
"the defensive plays are getting to the field late this season because of poor sideline management."

When it's established that Guilbeau took "artistic license" with a 19 yr old's quote to try to stir up controversy, I'd hope The Town Talk has their severs completely clogged with email responses from across the state. GG is a Bob Woodward wannabe, but he's a Jayson Blair emulator. He writes fiction as fact, fact as fiction, all the while diss'ing his alma mater with impudence and apparent impunity. He has a laziness, and lack of skill that he covers with a correspondent lack of ethics.

He's a worthless scumbag.

Wasn't there a thread several days ago where I was asked why I thought there were signaling issues? Well this is the reason.

Wasnt this kind of expected anyway.
New-CO-DeFEnsive Coordinators. I dont care how much its practiced in the offseason, it cant duplicate the Likes of UF. This has got to be trial by error. Unfortunately there will be several more big plays given up similar to the 2003 Team that couldnt cover the UGA Back out the backfield or the UF back that we finally lost on. Have faith however that the offensively line can continue to Grind!
