One thing he has proven at the very least in the last two game....he has no dawg in him whatsover. He will never make it in life unless there is a major turnaround in his 'want to'.

This 100%.
Other skills in the toolbox are modest.

He certainly SHOULD'VE. (Should Have) Just give him the football and let him run fast with it.

Other than Clemson Perk been playing the same way, Whit is being injured is an excuse. What about Ole Miss, Whit played then

Hopefully Frank pulls ANYONE who isn’t giving 100%.

Do we have an analyst who monitors effort?

Some truth here but I don’t entirely agree. While undersized, I absolutely think that he can be effective when used properly and (most importantly) accepts the coaching that despite whatever deficits we’ve had in that category just hasn’t seemed to take for him. As a rover with spy responsibilities against mobile QBs he still has the potential to be a difference maker. His issues is that he never seems to have adjusted to being able to dominate on athletic ability alone like he did in HS. His fundamentals in containment and tackling angles have somehow gotten worse the longer he’s been on campus and were so egregiously bad against Vandy he should have been benched for at least a series or two to have these lessons hammered home. He’s not the only player that has had these issues, and while plenty to criticize re: coaching the last few years I promise you these guys aren’t being taught to play this way. It’s bizarre.

I’ve always said that he should be a Safety. Everyone said the Star position was best for him but I disagree. It’s something about his heart/desire that doesn’t translate to the Football field. He’s got the EXACT OPPOSITE heart and desire to play as Whit Weeks who doesn’t possess half Harold’s Athleticism but loves hitting people and disrupting plays. If In a GM , I stay away from Perkins.

This.
Put more simply; Watch the Vandy game. He shoots in 1000mph; QB steps up out of Perks path and then either runs or has plenty of time to pass.

Next play; same thing. Next play; same thing. Never changes, ever.

Incredibly talented physically; but simply doesn't adjust to anything. I watched the TX linebacker slowing up before Pavia and keeping him in front while pressuring. It was great spy/contain. Kept him in front, lined up, and closed distance without shooting 5 yards by him. Pavia still made plays; but they were limited.

They were coached on what to do and did it. Perk is either not coached or incredibly dumb.
