If we don't get a new ST coach I will lose a lot of respect for miles' coaching ability

I mean, outside of this year, when have we EVER been upset with BDP? Firing him is a bit of knee-jerk, no?

Inexcusable with the talent we have.

As most of us thought, Steele is just not very good.

With those stats it's honestly amazing that we're 7-1.

How does this Steele D stack up against Chavis' worst defense while at LSU? Honestly curious.

These are alarming results especially with our top 5 recruiting classes and our well-paid coaching staff.

According to the advocate, we have allowed 10 points in the first quarter of all games this season. We've only allowed 64 points in the first half all season, but we've allowed 124 in the second half. If you don't think that has to do with depth more than anything, I don't know what to tell you.

I like some of the defense I've seen, but think it's unfair to judge Steele just yet before he gets any chance to do the recruiting he's known for.

Better than this.

By a lot.


In 2013, defense was our issue and we were still a top 10 total defense I believe.

Well, that pretty much tells us what we knew. Defense isn't all that good and ST is the worst ever under Miles. Anyone have Malveto's defensive numbers to compare to Steele? I'm just curious as to how awful Malveto was compared to Steele's defense.
