But we've looked like shite all season so it's not like having to play freshmen at CB now suddenly forced us to change scheme the past 2 games.

This is 100% NOT a defense of House…but yes we have changed the scheme. They took it down to the bare bones during the bye week after losing Alexander and with Harris out for good.

House’s scheme is over-complicated and that’s part of the reason he’s been so resistant to putting young players in for more than spot minutes, even if they have talent. I will not miss that at all when he’s gone. But with half the secondary true freshmen and the rest not exactly playing well either, they have cut the defense down to nothing but basic zone and man looks with little movement and disguising and only occasional blitzes.
