Florida is going to fire DC Brad White
- Thread starter will.ksr
- Start date
It pleases me that Third and Brad is no longer our defensive coordinator - but we got problems of our own we need to work on.
We just missed another five arm tackles.
We do but at least it's not the bend but don't break defense of Brad White. Bateman isn't scared to dial up a blitz.
Looking at the rest of our schedule, all of these games are winnable.
I don’t think Bateman is any better but he can recruit at a very good level. Brad White was an ok coach and bad recruiter. Glad he’s gone.
I am not out on Bateman yet. We were getting good pressure and should have had multiple big time losses via sacks, but our guys couldn't wrap up.
It's great to not be afraid to call a blitz, but you really need at least a couple to get to the QB or at least pressure him.
Our D line was getting blown up almost every play and over-committing or losing contain constantly. We were zero threat in the front seven, and it was allowing Sellers to pick apart our secondary.
This defense bends and breaks.
He was never that great. To think at one point Mitch would have hired him as our HC.
Florida was exposed as I predicted...
Never thought it that way....but you're right.....White was poor at getting talent....Bateman is scoring all of our bigs defensive lands
Can you imagine life as a UK fan where Pope is the basketball coach and Brad White is your football coach. Mitch’s dream team.
Oh I’m not out on Bateman either. I think like White, he’s an ok coach but Bateman can actually recruit. Thats half the battle. White couldn’t recruit to save his life.
Thank God Mitch took a “hands off” approach to the football hire. Wish he’d done the same thing after Cal left.Can you imagine life as a UK fan where Pope is the basketball coach and Brad White is your football coach. Mitch’s dream team.
Anybody that believes Mitch hired Stein in like two days, you haven’t been paying attention the last 25 years. Mitch would’ve just hired a guy like Brad White and saved some money.
It's still a better scheme than what Brad White used. When we get better depth I expect it to improve. We're really thin at LB & I'd love to have DL depth.
He would have been the typical Mitch hire. Thank god the team fell off a cliff bad enough last year that it knocked him out of contention.
The great thing about our defense is, most things are just fundamental and can be fixed. We definitely got to bring guys down without missing tackles. I would love to get some pressure on the Qb as well, depth is really showing now and getting some guys healthy should help some. I really got my yearly cussing quota maxed out in the first half no doubt.
Great win but you’re right, the defense has to improve to keep these next few games close. I’m still so pumped up and proud of them.
Sellers is a big SOB to bring down LB size hard man to bring down
This is the least amount talent Stein and co. Will have. Works, Gadson, and others have made big jumps since last season. Also alot of talented underclassmen on that defense.
Could be. Just wish he wouldn't have "helped" the OC as much as he did.....
Probably should fire Sumrall and the OC, too. 17 points probably does not win many SEC matchups.
Florida was fortunate to play almost every tough game so far at home. They have a huge home field advantage. This is the beginning of the end for their reign as a contender.
White isnt their problem. He did a fantastic job here even being massively undermanned. More specifically, he did much better with less vs much more talented mizzou teams.
Florida will be fine, they just aren't the elite team all those home games made them appear to be.
The story is winning on the road in the SEC. Missouri was a big winner yesterday. Its loss was at Miss St.
Winning at SC and TAMU was huge for UK, obviously. While it will be the second biggest challenge of the season, winning at home now against LSU would be huge. LSU’s worst game was on the road vs Ole Miss. Ole Miss then proceeded to see the difficulty of the road. Let’s hope Kroger is bonkers next week.
