Here is our DC Jancek's comments about the AU game:
»(On linebackers against Auburn)



“There were no issues in terms of the linebackers finding out who had the ball. They executed. They did their job for the most part. There was a couple times, here and there, we maybe slid a little too far inside. Nothing where you said, `Man that’s awful.’ For the most part, we were on point.

Did I watch a different game?

jancek is a terrible DC. wouldn't expect anything different from him.

Maybe Jancek wasn't even there because that comment is absolutely ridiculous! I can still picture 5-6 times, even in the second half that not only our LB's, but our safety's were running and plugging up the middle expecting a run while the QB danced around the corner into open space (while J Smith was kissing his blocker who he didn't want to get off of)... this worries me-- I know there is a degree of coach speak and they are doing a good job of not throwing kids under the bus like Dooley, but this remark is idiotic..

Why wouldn't you just man up on the outside and send the rest to the line of scrimmage? I mean, make Marshall beat you with his arm.. I kind of wonder if half these DC's have been hit in the head too much also..

Wilcox...Wilcox....OH, you mean the guy that this board begged Dooley to fire because they didn't like his bend but don't break defense?

I swear, you all are gonna have the worst team in the SEC if you keep up this no patience, fire the coach, negative pouting BS.

Give people time to develop a culture and implement a system before you call for heads. And just to warn you, next year is gonna be an up and down season as well. We will be the youngest team in the SEC again.

These types of things happen when you have a lot of coaching turnover. Suck it up.

I remember when Jancek and Martinez were at GA. They had a terrible defense. The GA faithful were delighted when both coaches were gone. I hope we haven't inherited a couple of bad coaches.

1. Recruit better players
2. Try to teach the current players how to tackle until the better players arrive.

You are right with #1. We were fortunate to get the recruits for 2013 and many of them were offensive players and DB's/athletes. CBJ did a great job of getting what he could. The 2014 class looks much more balanced with more LB's.
What about #2? How much more coaching is it going to take to get players to get off blocks and go make tackles. The coaches can't make the tackles for them and at what point do the coaches just think they are uncoachable and put in someone else?

If only those dumb coaches would follow the advice on here we wouldn't be losing so much. How they can ignore such a valuable resource and make decisions based their experience I'll never know.

Until you have the right players to execute the scheme you really can't judge it. We have no pass rushers, subpar DBs, and LB's who can't play in space. If we had any chance on defense it would be to drun a zone and you can't stop the spread with the zone. It also would help if Hood would stop getting blown off the ball.

I agree with all of this, including that last line on Hood. DT is just not a good fit for him but we don't have a lot of options there right now.

So did AJ, which is why Jancek's comment dumb-founded me. I focused on AJ almost ever play and he bit on that fake virtually EVERY time and took himself out of the play.

I can say that AJ was responsible for the QB less than 5 times on Sat. Inside Lb's are RARELY ever assigned the QB in the read option. That would be criminal to ask your slowest backer from the middle to chase down a QB. A couple of times he over-persued the play and got pinned by the Center allowing the RB to cut back, but the QB was the least of his worries.

I'm not sure if Jancek will ultimately be successful here when the talent level evens out, but this bunch did have a top 15-20 defense while they were at Cincy. People want to point to his ONE year at UGA where he was only the "CO-DC", but I'd rather look at the Cincy record.

You can't just say AJ was out of position every time the QB took the ball around the end. Depending on your scheme his first job was to take the back . The safety getting sucked in on the fake had the QB on the edge. If AJ just runs to the outside and doesn't take the back the QB just hands it to him and he runs free up the middle . Against a read option team everyone has an assignment. AJs first job was to take the back . The safety biting on the run fake to the middle was the one out of position.

If we were in the big east or the AAC (whatever that conference is named now) then I would agree. But the SEC is how coaches are judged.

This is a case of a coach not criticizing his players in public. I admire him for that. What he sees and coaches his players to do is much different than what he tells the media. Book it. You can blame him all you want, but he has inherited a group of marginal players competing against top ten teams.

My only point was that this staff, against similar competition, was successful. I just don't put a whole lot of weight behind 1 year as a "co" coordinator. I said I don't know if they will ultimately succeed (hope so), but that is what I was basing my judgement on so far.

Exactly but Marshall out ran us to the edge to many times. Posters can talk about the "lack of speed" is not the problem but Auburn exposed that time after time.

It is very easy to beat the defense to the edge when the OL collapses the corner by turning in the D-line and blowing them 2-3 yards off the ball. They allowed the ball carrier to take a straight path to the corner all day.

The LBs may were often in the lane, but then they'd take on the lead blocker with the outside shoulder and also get turned in. Not good.

BTW, Auburn also ran the ball between the tackles pretty well. They whipped us in a variety of ways.

Individuals were getting beaten by the guy on the other side almost every play.

I'm not giving the coaches a pass, but the UT defense was losing so many of the one-on-one match-ups, scheme didn't matter. Auburn could have called the plays at the line of scrimmage and the results would not have been materially different.

is not getting the job done for whatever reason.

I wonder if in the end, he will cause Jones to lose his job?.

Remember Dooley and Sansuri?.
At that time we could put points on the board but, because our defense was so bad, we kept losing games.

Wow....I TOTALLY forgot about that! Thanks for reminding me. Remember that day that was November 13, 2013? Yeah....that was an awesome day! :crazy:

In fact, I"ll go one step further....

What every D coordinator should do is watch how Alabama schemed for teams these same D coord are about to play. I realize Bama runs a 3-4 and most everyone else a 4-3, but by dropping your fastest DE, you can somewhat simulate their scheme. I'm not saying do this the whole game, but instead of letting an opposing offense play to their strengths (which is exactly what UT has done these past few games), push them to play with the biggest weakness. We're not good/deep enough apparently to play "strength on strength" with any legitimate top 20 team.

The problem with that is that we do not have ends like that here. Our ends get caught up in the wash every play and have not been able to set an edge all year. When they run to Cam Suttons side we have a shot at a open field tackle, when it goes toward Coleman it could be 6 PTS. Gus, nick and every other good coach sees this too. Block down on the end have a blocker for the one linebacker(others are not fast enough to flow until its 8 to 10 yards down the field) and run at Coleman who cannot tackle in space.

Outstanding analogy and Freak just posted a link to a blog posted that illustrates exactly what you just said.

It wasn't just the Lbs it was the whole damn defense. They all was over pursing and not staying in their gaps. It don't take a football genius to see that. That's what made our overall team speed look worse that it is

Cincy had a top 20 D because of their weak schedule

Some Baseball players hit .400 in the minors and then hit .250 in the majors
