Cool, so with the same talent as Oregon, a 3 man front can stop the run. Right?

Tuiaki is what is he. We have enough tape. We've hit our ceiling on D with him

I'm assuming the ceiling was the Baylor game, or the Utah/ASU games in 2021.

Yep. It took me forever to see it with Bronco. Now it was obvious for a long time that he needed to move on.

Before anyone gets offended on behalf of Tuiaki...

Whoa, hold on, wait up. Its nice to hear this.

Well, obviously. I don't have extreme bitter feelings toward the man like some all these years later...

But...I was right.

Tuiaki will never move on from Kalani. All we can hope for is an eventual lessening of responsibility & influence on D.
Spiff

Everybody realizes he's running Kalani's defense, right?

How different is his arrangement with Kalani from other head coaches and their d coordinators? Defensive coordinators
No touching
9/19/22 12:10pm
Coordinators getting fired is usually just a precursor to the HC getting fired.
shoganai
9/19/22 12:21pm
Nebraska just fired their DC. . . I think the interim HC is going to get the ax
Zoobieman

The staff at Nebraska will probably be almost totally whitewashed when they

Signed Kalani and Bronco... To name a few recent and relevant examples.

Lol. Bronco ended up rehiring the first OC he let go. I remember how excited a

How long did firing Jaime Hill last? That was the reference...

9/19/22 12:54pm
And he ultimately replaced Hill with Nick Howell. That was not a net gain in the

I never saw Utah run a defense like this under Kalani. I have no idea what this
Corn Pop
9/19/22 12:11pm
I agree that Kalani approves it, but resembles nothing like the defense Kalani
Rhubarb
9/19/22 12:16pm
Our players also resemble nothing like the players Kalani typically had at his
shoganai
9/19/22 12:20pm
Do you have a theory as to why that is, particularly on the d line?
No touching
9/19/22 12:29pm
I don't think it's hard to figure out.
shoganai
9/19/22 12:33pm
So why does the offense not suffer from the same thing? Goes both ways no?
The_Cuss
9/19/22 12:48pm
The offense absolutely suffers from the same thing.
shoganai
9/19/22 12:52pm
The offense was not overpowered by superior talent. Play calling was bad.
The_Cuss
9/19/22 12:57pm
I just completely disagree.

I don't think the number of down linemen is particularly relevant.

9/19/22 1:11pm
Thats fine, but additional guys didn't come. It was frequently just 3...

Nix had no trouble beating us with his arm. He had an extremely productive day
shoganai
9/19/22 1:19pm
He was 13 for 18... Oregon rushed for 222 yards. Avg over 5 yds a carry....
The_Cuss
9/19/22 1:27pm
Oregon had more passing yards than rushing yards on fewer than half the number
shoganai
9/19/22 1:44pm
Do you think that rushing attempts and passing attempts equal the same yardage?

I am not the one in this conversation wearing blue goggles.

UO 2nd string offense played in the 3rd qtr... We have better talent than that.
The_Cuss
9/19/22 3:38pm
Again, the one wearing the blue goggles here is not the one willing to admit
shoganai
9/19/22 3:55pm
"We held Oregon to 3 points once they removed their starters". Congrats I guess?

The offense scored ONCE in the first 3 quarters. The final 2 scores were against
NYC and Japan
9/19/22 1:41pm
Who said the offense wasn't bad? Did you read what I wrote? LOL
The_Cuss
9/19/22 2:38pm
"offense was not overpowered by superior talent... lets be clear the offense
NYC and Japan
9/19/22 3:12pm
Again, I said the offense did not perform well... Nothing to interpret there.

9/19/22 3:34pm
I guess we'll see if d line improves in the next couple years.
No touching
9/19/22 12:48pm
Nearly our entire roster needs to improve to be more than a regular also-ran in
shoganai
9/19/22 12:55pm
How much has the d-line improved over the past 7 years? There's your answer.
The_Cuss
9/19/22 12:58pm
Improved enough to go 23-5 overall, 7-2 against P5. Wins against 2 teams top 25
NYC and Japan
9/19/22 1:44pm
Thanks to the below average defense? Or despite the below average defense?
The_Cuss
9/19/22 2:41pm
You imply the defense and/ or dline have not improved in 7 years
NYC and Japan
9/19/22 3:32pm
What are you talking about? I didn't set any bars with points. You did that...
The_Cuss
9/19/22 3:41pm
I'm just amazed that out of all of the positions that seem to be the hardest to recruit for Tuiaki... it is DL...

The defense we've become used to seeing is not capable of being a .500 team in
