Good thing we have a surplus of speed and athleticism on D to make up for it....

I am surprised KS is not riding the Defensive coaches more.

The offense is concerning but it appears everything was done to improve that.

So frustrating when Kalani in post game

I thought the conventional wisdom is that early on the D should be better than O

Heard that said every year for 30 years. Not sure if it's true.

I'm not sure either. But its the sort of thing that comes up every year 😉

Last year is starting to make more sense now...

OC is more experienced as well. But that doesn't exempt Tuiaki from learning

Tuiaki was a giving his job based on loyalty to Sitake...

Awful lot of conclusions being drawn here from one practice...
