Ok, we need to have a serious discussion [defense concerns, banks, martinez] (merged)

Banks has been bailed out by the offense time and time again but when he isn’t it becomes quite clear he isn’t a coordinator. He may be a great coach but he isn’t a coordinator

This is a lot of the problem IMO. If Rattler reverts to his average in the second half, we should be okay.

We are blitzing the quarterback and not getting to him, don't stop him when he runs and he's making and connecting on more long throws than we are. I've seen more dropped balls from TN than you'd see at a Shriners convention.

As much as I like to blame the extremely poor defensive play tonight on the guys, I just can't. Technique, recognition and proper tackling procedure is a direct result of coaching. or the lack thereof. If it isn't addressed, we will always be 8-4 to 10-2 type of team. I love Heupel's Offense, but championships have to be equally yoked between offense and defense.

Great game by South Carolina. Still love the Volunteers. 8 minutes to go moving the ball but running out of time for sure.

About Defensive Coordinator. SC just score TDs on 5 consecutive possessions. Multiple 70+ yard drives. 3rd and 4th down conversions. Big chunk plays. No stops. Zero. Zilch. Heupel had major problems with his DC at UCF and was criticized by fans saying he was completely disconnected from the defense. He was spared having to fire Randy Shannon because he got the Tennessee job.

Is this a Jimmy and Joe problem, or is this a failure to scheme and coach the talent that’s here? UT will be ranked in the bottom 5 of 130 teams in pass defense after this game. What is the long term solution?

VOLS defensive backs too slow and not good enough to play man coverage. They also Can't Tackle anybody. Watch the UGA defensive backs, they Don't Miss tackles. Let's hope CJH can recruit some better talent on defense. I'm happy for the season we had, but this was a humiliating butt whipping by an average team.

I’ve never seen a shredding from a lower level SEC team like this. USC is ok but this one s totally embarrassing. Thoughts on who’s at fault for this beat down on D?
