More portal help

[Rocky Top T]

Got to get a couple defensive backs in portal. McCullough can't play and Hadden can't shut up! They both need to transfer.

That win should help

McCullough more than Hadden.

Hadden actually made a few nice plays tonight. In coverage and open field tackling.

But good God, McCullough was an absolute liability!!

So tired of him being out there.
You look at him, and he looks like an NFL safety physically. But MAN HE SUCKS!!

You are right about McCullough. Seen enough of him!

I hope JJ can move back to safety. Hadden needs to step on the T in the locker room and have a meeting with Joe!

I will fault Heupel in one way. He and the coaching staff have not run and hit the jawing streak out of Hadden in practice yet.
Get his head on straight for him.

No they need to just tell him to shut his mouth and play or else he will be sitting on the bench for good.

Or better yet - someone else is bench.

Clemson players were in the portal at half time trying to transfer to Tenn

Slaughter is the ONLY DB we had that made a play where he turned his head and made a play on the ball and looked like a well coached DB. The others were just running towards the WR with their hands up like they had no idea what they were doing. We absolutely must get better in the secondary.

Slaughter did have a pretty good game. He had a couple of nice open field tackles too.

Slaughter is best at safety.

My hope is that we have some youth that can crack the starting lineup, but even if the talent is there, they're being given to Martinez. Not a fan of that guy as a coach.

Put him and Walker back there next season and feed.

 

[TartanTurff]

Willie Martinez is a Butch Jones secondary coach and should be canned this year, players all around the ball, nobody in position to make a play, most never actually turn around, the embarrassment of the Tennessee secondary is too well know, even among the referees, four pass interference calls against Tennessee, none against Clemson, the technique isn't being taught, it's all piss poor coaching, coaching, coaching and if Martinez worked anywhere but here he would have been fired midway through the season

He misses too many tackles. OTOH Slaughter was an absolute beast! If the rest of our DBs played with similar intensity, then the group would be rock solid.

Who is jj…?

 

[vols40]

Who is jj…?

Lol. Sorry AJ

 

[OH-Vol]

Slaughter, McDonald and Hadden are keeper, perhaps the two Freshman (Harrison and Thomas) and Williams for his PR ability. The rest need to hit the portal asap

 

[Adam Sandler]

Lol. Sorry AJ

Who??

 

[37620VOL]

Slaughter is best at safety.

Until 2 days ago, I would have agreed. Now I think he's CB1.

 

[keenobserver]

Anyone teaching these kids how to play the ball and defender on the deep ball? I know it's one of the most difficult things to do in football, but dadgum, we seem to be one of the worst at it.

You have to give Hadden his props on the 4th and 2 play, where he knocked the crap out of Mr. Shipley. Well I just looked at the replay, maybe he didn't have as much to do with the stop as I thought.

I’d like to see coaches try to find a hybrid LB/safety position for him. He could easily be a OLB in a 3/4 trick scheme but still look like a 4/3 look.
