Dude is constantly jogging sideways, never attacks. Doesn’t get off blocks. Quite unbelievable that there was zero improvement from last year.

Even worse, why is he not getting benched? At this point it doesn't even matter if his backup is worse, give the guy a shot. There is 0 faith that Clark will do anything remotely positive... It's insane.

Easy on the LBs. I think the adjustments confused them. Thats on the coach.

Doesn’t have all the skills physical and mental to play at sec level. Time to bench him.

He’s one of the worst starting linebackers I’ve ever seen in the SEC… 2 years in a row. He’s the same exact player as last year. It’s embarrassing

Clark, and pretty much whoever else plays linebacker, almost always puts himself in a position to be completely taken out of the play. One play last night that went for a big gain, Clark moved in behind two of our defensive linemen - took himself out of where the play ended up going and right behind two linemen being blocked. Yes, the running back states in that direction, but since our linemen were there , No way was he going to run that direction - there was no hole there. Once Clark slid over there, all the blocker had to do was stand between him and the now gaping hole. an easy 30-yard run because he took himself out of the hole and into a position where he had no opportunity to make a play.

No gap discipline by anyone. They don’t trust their teammates to make plays.

clark should be at DE and Oljulari should be at LB. Both guys are out of position.

The most important defensive position on the field and almost every big play they got was because of him in coverage and not being in the right position. He had a few good plays but this position is supposed to be the heart of the defense. If you watched the penn st game that MLB was shooting gaps in the back field making plays , covering rb's out of backfield, getting off blocks making tackles. Did you see clark do any of that? NO! Scary part is it seems we have no one better to play the position and he will be starting in the same spot next game

He has no gap disciple. This is his biggest issue. He is constantly out of position

He can’t get off of a block

When he is in position and manages to get off a block , he doesn’t make a tackle with initial contact

When he is backside, he pursues at 3/4 speed

He gets zero depth on his drop into zone

The ONLY thing I saw improvement on is that he did communicate when passing off a man from his zone to Strong’s zone. Problem is Strong did not realize it and it ended up being a TD.

- Clark and Baskerville don't want to tackle
- BJ and Anthony only want to pass rush, can't really do much in rush defense
- Harris, and any other Safety really aren't even showing up on the screen
- Strong looked lost
- Anything physical Stingley check out in January 2020.

These are easy to see.

Going to have to get some freshmen in there, they can't do any worse than the LB/Ss you got in there now.

I see 75 UV's but the dude made damn near 25% of the tackles against UCLA. Who the hell you gonna put in his place?

I aint voting for the guy for All SEC but damn dude.

It's amazing how well he played under a real DC and LB coach. It's coaching people.
