If he and Martinez aren't, it tells me we have not learned a damn thing. He has to make a change.

I've been saying from week 3 our DBs have no idea what they are doing. That's not lack of talent, that's trash coaching.

When you have corners who cannot run with sec receivers coaching doesn’t matter. They said it going in to the season that our dbs were not sec caliber. They lack the speed and athleticism to play in the sec. It’s hard to lay blame on the coaches when Warren Burrell is by far the most athletic db on your roster…

I’ve been saying we need better athletes for a couple days now but people have got it in their heads that half of the defensive staff needs to be fired. Not even a week ago these same people thought we were the team to beat for the college football playoff…

I agree our talent is not up to par. But teaching them to turn their heads and lining up 10 yards off the ball all game has nothing to do with speed

On the contrary, lining up 10 yards off the ball has everything to do with a lack of speed. When the corner is that far off the receiver everyone in the stadium knows the reason why, and it is because he is to slow and the dc is afraid he will get beat deep.

I think my cousin (UGA fan) nailed it. Heupel is Mark Richt 2.0. He's going to win us games against elite teams and then lose to nobodies when it matters most.

There could be some validity in your cousin's view. I have a cousin whose neighbor's wife has a twice removed 3rd cousin who watched the game and believes that the Gamecocks showed up better prepared, more motivated, and just handed us an azz whoopin! In simple terms, he said we were outcoached and outplayed.

I don’t understand the reasoning here. He wants a job in the NFL so he throws a game that makes him look terrible?

What if he's not gone and the team ran into a buzz saw and just got their butts kicked ?

Agreed, our defense has looked like really bad at times. We were lucky to be ranked in the top 5, and honestly we should not have been ranked #1.

Florida 453 pass 594 total
Bama 455 pass 569 total
S. Carolina 453 pass 606 total

They've really struggled to defend the pass against opponents with good QB's and receivers. In those scenarios we pretty consistently give up about 450 pass yards, and around 600 total. Our secondary is bad. In my opinion it's pretty obvious we need to go in a different direction as far as a DB coach, and definitely get better players in the back end.

If he has already agreed to an under the table deal to go to the NFL then it would explain last night...

For heaven's sake, sorry but I think that's just ridiculous.

You really think the NFL would want him at this point?
His offense is very good in college FB, but in the NFL the speed differential of NFL caliber defenses would eat it up.
Every DB runs sub 4.4 and most of them are prime players.
Ask Saban, baby Kiffin & Spurrier how that worked out for them.

Not to mention I truly don't think the guy would just mail in a game like you're insinuating, even if he had accepted something else.

Why the actual hell would he have, at this point?
If they'd have won Saturday, then at Vandy this week, and they likely would have been in the CFP, IN HIS SECOND FREAKING YEAR!!!

He could have written his own salary number and after that.

3 and less than 5. All game. 10 yards off. Nope. I disagree.

Even Doug Matthews said something similar Sunday. Honestly i would of liked to see if they could just run by them at some point. We already knew they could hit the guy sitting down in the charmin soft zone. I mean i guess they could of scored on that one other possession, i mean oh well.
