Discipline and Technique

[Dicklies]

The angles by the linebackers offer up so many opportunities for big chunk plays. No discipline and no technique. Seem to play on emotions vs a solid game plan which lead to a mix of shooting yourself in the foot with correctable mistakes and horrific leverage at the line of scrimmage. 

Are you still paying for the past three head coaches or is that taken of. Asking for a friend.

It was actually Ruud who gave Bo all the credit in the world for teaching him about the LB spot and making him much improved as a LB.....    Watching film, you can see if "X" did this, it would've been executed properly.  I think it's a combination of coaching and talent...Ruud is also in year 2 of actually coaching ILB's. He is probably learning as well....

The topic is missing in my opinion in our coaching efforts.

I saw Barry taking himself out of the play due RPO misdirections.  There were numerous tackles made tackling high and getting dragged for many yards after contact.  Our defenders seem to have trouble shedding blocks and playing the ball.  The pass defenders often don’t turn the heads to the ball and seem to be using a face guarding technique.

Barry and Miller both were caught not sticking to their assignments and chasing the ball away from them only to get burned on OSU running it right at them.

 

Barry has been doing this all year.  In  a lot of defenses a LB reads one of the guards, but more often then not his eyes are in the backfield right from the snap.  Which leads to being Sucked in on run fakes, eschewing technique/gap or back responsibility.  Gets caught chasing recievers out of his zone, etc.  Won’t even get into his tackling last night.

 

i love his attitude and toughness, but man he creates a lot of easy plays for the offense.  Something that can be easily stressed to work on and fixed.
