What part isnt true?

How many 50+ yard plays have they given up to how many teams?

Are you really trying to tell me tackling on the back end hasnt been a huge problem?

I'd say the biggest problem was setting the edge which isn't always the responsibility of the safeties. Also, our corner's couldn't tackle a tackling dummy. Moore having 86 tackles last year implies to me that his tackling probably wasn't the issue on all those big plays.

This all completely depends on the play that the DC calls up. With SEC offenses as fast as they are... no Safety has the catch-up speed to compensate for a horrible call.

Take a unit with no confidence in itself and the coaching staff and you have the 2012 UT defense.

Safeties start with a 15 yard+ cushion. 99 can be a huge troll but what he says is true. Our safeties gave up huge plays last year which started mostly after Randolph got hurt. Sal's Defense sucked, but our safeties have been coached since they were in pop warner how to take angles and make plays. This is just another example of someone looking at the stats of a DB and making an assessment. Look at David Amerson last year. Most interceptions in the country in 2011. "Best Corner in the Country". Too bad they don't put on his stat sheet "Number of times burned for 50+ yarders". Everyone of our receivers burned him and he was suppose to be the best in the country... Come on! Take your Orange shaded glasses off...

Tackling wasn't his problem, taking angles to be able to tackle was...

B moore is too slow and doesnt wrap up when tackling brain randolph is a way better S
he can cover tackle and go up and get the ball he led the team in tackles before he got hurt

The way UT's D played last year it's hard to put any player short of AJ on any kind of "best of" preseason list. And yet we have several, which means we either have talent that needs good coaching or there are a lot of sportswriters that forgot about the '12 UT season.

Moore < McNeil & Randolph. Personally I don't think Moore is even close to anything special. Slow, alright tackler, OK when the ball is in the air. Hopefully some better coaching will change my mind because sunseri didnt teach them a damn thing about anything

If everyone comes back from injuries at 100% (Coleman, Randolph, Maggitt) and Riyahd's got game, then we will be above average on Defense next season...Yeah I said it! Besides McCullers is gonna be a whole different annimal now that he is fit and trim.

Most improved Defense in NCAA...It already has our name on the award.

Wow, you really are mad, huh? I love a good conspiracy theory, but I've found there to be much bigger a$$hats on here than LW in the grand scheme of things.
