Regarding questions about tackling in practice...
The press keeps asking, and Kiffin keeps giving the same answer: “It’s a long season and we need our guys healthy.”
Translation: "Our first 4 games are against Hawaii, Virginia, Minnesota, and WSU. Obviously, we’re working very hard to prepare for and win these games. But, if we go into our 5th (Washington) and 6th (Stanford) games with major injury problems, our entire season is in jeopardy. We can’t afford any unnecessary risks at this point in the season. That “one game at a time” is great for the players, but we coaches need to take the bigger view."
Hope that helps clarify it. Kiffin is doing his best to play the hand he was dealt. Expect more of the same over the next 3 years. Fight On!
+1, I really liked a quote from Monte this week
don’t have the quote, but the point was this: count the # of games started by our secondary. for T2, add in the Mike for games started. 3 games started, all by Reecie, at their positions. Entire 2ndary, plus Mike, 3 games started at their positions.
The defensive problems can be boiled down to one word: youth.
You can't put sanctions on the fkn endzone! Death to the NCAA!
