When the highlight of your coaching career is a middling stint as the DC of a MAC school that doesn't really preach defense, it doesn't give one much hope.
No player to contain the edge if that was the case that would limit 2 or 3 big plays. LB'S are green, and if the db turns around at least 1 or 2 plays we have more ints. The players have to have better awareness on the field.
I think the offense is the problem, particularly our inability to run the ball. The D has not been great, but they have been left out there to die too often. The 3rd Quarter today was brutal. I would can OC and Special Teams guy before Neimann.
The only reason It was competitive today is because of the defense
Im really surprised to see anyone calling for the DC to be fired.
Agree that the offense and Special Teams are bigger issues than the Defense. The only consistent criticism I have is that it seems to take this unit a couple of series to get going. Yes the pass defense was awful for the most part but they were on the field too many times in the second half.
Oh an if you don't like the D and want Neimann gone then you really want the HC gone because his prints are all over this defense.

I'm really surprised people don't realize Ash runs the D
How can you defend a pass when you don't see it. Speed has a lot to do with it, but not everything. Can't constantly give up big pass plays or PI' s.
I remember when the McCourtney backfield was really young and inexperienced. Then when the next group was the same. They all were taught that way. Everyone complained. Funny thing is...eventually...they became very, very good at playing that way...right? Yes, it's annoying, but it's how almost every team plays these days, even how OSU is taught, but we don't have the studs obviously. Also...let's face it...those WR's made some GREAT plays going over-the-top of our DB's a couple of times on those deep out routes.
