Thank you. I don’t know if they even have group film sessions any more, maybe they just email them individually now or something, but there are three plays I would gather the entire team together and show on repeat:

1. it’s either 3rd or 4th and 13 I think, DL Smith comes off the edge UNTOUCHED, has the UF qb dead to rights, and WHIFS him. QB just stepped out of the way(no moves, no hip, no spin, nothing), and hits a receiver 30 yards downfield. They score that drive.
2. The UF qb throws into double coverage (he’s not particularly good) and Dial has it like it was thrown to him personally; no stretching, no jumping, no reaching. Like it was thrown to him in stride. He of course bumbles it and holds his helmet in his hands dramatically. They score that drive.
3. My favorite: 4th and 11 late. UF qb is pressured (we actually brought pressure, surprise), flushes to the right and hits his bailout guy THREE YARDS behind the line of scrimmage with Dial right on him, dead to rights. Perfect; can’t blueprint any better, except Dial WHIFS the guy. WHIFS. Believe me when I say that is a HIGH SCHOOL DRILL practiced every day. No hip, no move, no spin; the guy just steps around Dial and picks up the first. They score that drive.

NONE of any of that is ‘coaching’. None. That is ALL on the player. Leggette making a leaping catch on the sideline is ALL PLAYER; no ‘coaching’ can do that. Those missed tackles and dropped gimme picks are likewise ALL PLAYER.

They need to be held accountable, and I hope they were.
While those individual performances are on the players, and they should be held accountable for it, the fact that it's the best we got is on the coaches. Well coached teams don't miss tackles the way we do. They don't miss opportunities to force negative plays. That blitz off the corner was a perfect call. Should have worked. Crazy that a dude who was a freshman AA last year whiffed that bad.

#3 on your list is one of the worst plays I can remember. They threw it to a TE in the open field to get 13 yards, and he did.

What kills me about #3 is that even after he got by Dial (which should not have happened), there were no other defenders for 10+ yards down field. The missed tackle is on Dial, but how in the world was there NO help anywhere to be seen?

I'm not a coach, and not sure if anyone on this board has any experience in it. But what is a small CB doing covering a 6-4 240LB TE on an island? What kind of formation calls for that? Wouldn't we rather have Dial on Pearsall and Nick on the TE?? I'm sure their offensive coaches were going nuts in the booth when they saw us line up.

🤷

I kind of take my previous comment back. We did have one defender coming in at about the 42, but he was blocked easily. I don't think he would have made the stop anyway though.

I really don't get why the media hates him so much. They also blatantly lie about him. He never blamed the game on hot dogs against UNC he was frustrated that the chain crew wasn't ready which any coach in America would be as well. He takes responsibility for every loss saying all the coached failed. It is absolutely insane what the media puts out on this coach. Now Beamer could be a little calmer and more poise in interviews after the game, but it still doesn't negate the lies in the media.
