Who's calling the defensive plays? Dave right?? Pawledge is garbage but Dave's the DC

I'm so sick of this defense. If Aranda doesn't fire himself as DC in the offseason, we need to fire him as head coach.

This bend-and-break defense is infuriating.

Like, not only are their pursuit angles terrible, it's also the most generally unathletic defense that I think that we have ever had. I know that we have had some injuries, but how are some of these guys earning a paycheck

We have the worst 3rd down D in the country

What's the dollar amount to send Linda, Mack and Dave packing ????


None of them were the nuclear destructive dumbasses that fired Briles. But I wonder if Linda is protecting him thinking that he is positive for the players and school.

Every time I see comments about Dave being this great defensive mind and DC, I think of seeing the D's he's put on the field for most of his 6 years here and the glaring lack of fundamentals they have, then shrug my shoulders.

Same screen, same result - loss of 3

Yup the talk of him being anything but a bad DC at this point is non sense. He's a bad DC

Nice possession there Spav.. god forbid we run the ball

Does Dave get fired if we lose this game as a 20 point favorite?

Offense taking a cue of ineptitude from the D.

Robertson shouldn't throw that screen. Definitely covered

Just missed Trigg for a big gain

I don't understand Spav. And the more I watch, and the more I think Spav is like Grimes--good for a season then everyone knows his tendencies/system

At least we didn't go for it on 4th.

Dave Aranda's teams remain allergic to positive momentum.
IowaBear
How long do you want to ignore this user?
No, should he? Yes. Him losing either of the next 2 should result in his pink slip. There's no excuses.

So if he removed himself as the DC you're cool with the prolonged mediocrity of his tenure ? We no longer play OU or Texas and still barely swim - and formally had their number.

No. If we lose this game, he is probably cooked though

Edit: I misread. Thought you said if we don't cover

I wonder how many times under Dave's D that we've scored only to let opponent answer immediately with a TD? It's like we are playing grab ass celebration on sideline after our TD and forget the other team scores too.

Do we adjust to the defensive alignment?

I'm so sick of these coaches. They all need to go. He just calls the same three or four pass plays where he refuses to utilize the middle of the field. It's like an eight-year-old that's playing Madden for the first time and finds one play that works, and it's all he knows to run every single play

This is two weeks in a row we've refused to run the ball early, despite it working. I just don't get what we're trying to do today.

AD will extend contract with raise.

If we somehow beat TCU, he will be our coach through 2026 regardless of any other wins or losses

I mean Robertson missed trigg over the middle high which is a BIG no no. Lucky it wasnt picked.

I think if we hired a good DC, we would be better than mediocre. We've seen what a difference-making coordinator can do with our offense. Go find a similarly talented DC to fix the defense.

Dave Aranda has proven he and his staff can recruit, and the culture he's built has allowed us to do a better job than most of retaining our talent. If we can fix the Xs and Os side with him on the sideline, it would be a better path forward than starting over with a new coach who would be far from a sure thing hire.

Aranda on the sidelines "Oh crap. I thought these guys were going to lay down today. That was my game plan."

No resistance. We look completely lost.

How many D coordinator's had Dave been firing? I lost count.
