Why? What are you gonna do if He is not?
Of course He is worried about it.
Far more than you.
But what kind of stupid reporter asked that question at that time and expects anything other than the answer they got?
And it was the correct answer!

I didn't expect him to say, "Yeah, we've got to get better as coaches or we've got to get better coaches."
The whole tone of his presser was about how big a hole they were in a half time and it was clear he was blaming the D for that hole.
I'm not in the coaches' room or meetings. I don't know how much of the blame Dabo places on the lack of talent of the players, the youth of the players, the injuries or the coaches. That's his job to figure it out.
But, I am struck by these two thoughts:
1. It would not surprise me if there was a different DC in the next 30 days.
2. TX ran the ball amazingly well. How much blame does Eason deserve for that? Why does he seem to be getting a pass? His title includes "defensive run game coordinator." Just wondering.
I have no idea what the solution is. But, that's not my job. That's Dabo's.

coaching. Too many technical issues. I wasn’t too big on his hire honestly. He want great at Auburn either. It’s not personal - he’s a great Tiger - but we have too many dudes on that line to get embarrassed like that.

My two cents.... We lost several db prospects, probably because of nil. We haven't landed the plethora of top defensive prospects recently. There was a point where we landed the top, or top 10, player each year. If revenue sharing happens, we should land more of these prospects.
Defense was horrible for the amount of talent we have. Woods is out of position repeatedly. So are the lb's. They get hung up on blocks. I'm just stating the obvious. Dabo has changed coaches when it was time. He is notorious for giving coaches and players every opportunity to prove themselves, but he has made changes when necessary.

I agree Bret. The question had to be asked. I did like hearing him say we had to get better everywhere. We got a first round qb. We've got a great start to wide receivers. Our oline is miles better than last year, especially with the injuries and players we have.
We do have a new DE coach. We have a deep DL but imo, not an elite dline as most have preached on T-Net all year. Pwoo and Parker are elite but we've gotten beat all year not setting the edge. The only teams we played with a pulse, we were poor getting off blocks and being gap integrity. We were playing against an average qb today that we knew wasn't as mobile as DJ5. That's coaching.
Sammy's great but it's a problem when he has to be your leading tackler. Our safeties are meh.
As for running backs. Looks like we missed not moving Randall as our 2nd back.
A lot of us on T-Net begged Dabo to take a transfer edge rusher, linebacker, and cb last January to shore up experience. His direct quote was, we like who we have on our roster. ??.

I agree, Bret, especially with the last statement. It's Dabo's job. If we can see the problems, he certainly does. Please find us a real DC.

You're right. He's not going to fire Wes at a presser.

I wouldn't be surprised if he did fire Wes, though. It wasn't just Texas who gashed Clemson in the running game.
They are not going to win many championships with a 70th-ranked defense.

CDS has fired people before, including long time friends. I have no doubt he will pull the trigger if he thinks its needed

Hopefully, if he does get fired, he will keep learning and be a good DC one day.

Don’t put money on it donkey. Dabo isn’t going flat say he’ll fire someone in a frickin post game interview. Try using that tiny brain of yours just a bit.

Dabo always has a list of coaches. He does a lot of networking. I believe this was coach speak for ... I need to get my head around this, but changes are coming. We have a lot of talent on dline, yet we were horrible vs the run. Texas beat us because they could run. I imagine Dabo's going to fix this

Apparently, you haven't been paying attention. He has dipped into the portal, now. He replaced two d coaches and the o.c. I know you have this mad on for Dabo, but he's done far more than your man crush

We've got the players. But the players aren't in position to make plays. It's chaos on D. Any good play feels like we had divine intervention. The experiment is over.

Which is also Wes's fault. Didn't Wes tell Dabo he didn't need portal players?

Let's not start eliminating roster management from the responsibility of position coaches. I know it's the pumper narrative, it was the same for Streeter, Austin, etc.

He also coaches LBs which are a hot mess, including two future pros.

Lots of teams with less talent on defense are ranked way above 70, so stop with the BS.

Dabo is a professional. He's not going to embarrass those men. He will have a private meeting. They will discuss the situation. He will analyze and have a plan.
It doesn't happen in front of people. That just doesn't happen...even when we get embarrassed by wvu.

Coaching quality. Wes seems to be an awesome DC assistant but not a DC of a (should be) fop 10 program. Something surely NEEDS TO CHANGE.
