Roof to NC State

Here's what the NFL looks for:
1. Can you run?
2. Can you absorb a playbook?
3. Can you do what the coach tells you to do?
Besides, from mid August through mid December, your defensive scheme doesn't go against your offensive scheme. You practice against someone else's offense. It might be your offensive players, but it is someone else's scheme.
This tired refrain of "they practice against the option all the time" is claptrap. They don't. Just from having watched about 100 of his practices at Georgia Southern, PJ will put his O against his D a few practice periods a week, but that's mostly for goal line and situational reps. The vast majority of practice Tuesday through Thursday, and some of Monday, is spent preparing for what the other team does, not what our team does. Practice periods are 5-6 minutes long, so it's about 20-25 minutes a week max out of about 8-9 hours on the field that the first team O goes against the first team D. He usually did it on a Wednesday, which is one of the contact days.

Our O practice squad is filled with guys recruited for the TO. Our D doesn't face an actual throwing QB in practice but one who practices QB Option Keepers and Reading the Mesh.

what about the 4 WEEKS of Spring and August when there is not an "other" team? Not to mention that our DEF practices vs a poor passing QB, OUR QB is generally not on the level of passing as most other QBs --ck out stats for last yr and most yrs
there is a problem, how big is the question

Stats: Our starting QB completed 43 passes in 2017. The whole SEASON.

Our D isn't even practicing against that. No wonder they routinely get torched by passing offenses.
 
Many thanks to TR for his efforts. NOW time to try and find "someone" who can play a "symphony guitar" with the "ukulele" GT recruiting provides. (pun intended)!

Good luck to him then. Nothing he’s done in his journeyman coaching career leads me to believe that he is going to have some magical tenure in Raleigh.

So you’re saying you haven’t paid any attention to his history? Like most coaches he’s had some bad years, but he has also had some very good ones

I honestly have no idea what a symphony guitar is, but I'm assuming it's something special. Violin wouldn't have worked for you?

I agree with RW92. Our D doesn't really get game speed reps against a pro set offense during practice and that hurts them. That includes passing AND running plays.

So you aren't a fan of the offense. Just say it. It doesn't make one bit of difference what O our guys are practicing against when 3 players whiff at tackles on a rb or a db tips a ball up instead of down resulting TD drive. If anything the coaches needed to stop scrimmaging all together and teach the D how to tackle.

Good luck to GT on finding the right guy for DC. You are very lucky to have CPJ who can recruit talent that fits the offense and can handle the academics at GT. I love to watch the triple option offense and how hard it is to defend. The D needs to get a few key stops.:cheers:

My D gets game speed reps against your mom.

Glad he is gone. Sick of watching the defense play not to lose! The reason we lost Miami, Virginia, and Tn is because of this brilliant strategy. Hope to god we get woody from app st. My nerves cannot take anymore of Roof's D.

Actually the bolded part could be the result of not practicing against a passing offense routinely.
