HiLife All-American

There are a number of young guys in the program with verified 10.5-10.6 100 meter times in HS. The raw ability is there, and Gilford has done a nice job with cb talent development, so I’m hoping that some of these kids will develop.

I hate to be a little rain cloud, but coaches using coachspeak said Tuiaki's defense was very complex.

Uh, source? I don't recall that ever being said by Tuiaki or of Tuiaki.

Drop 8, cover the grass? I have seen more complex defenses in Jr Jazz games

kansascougar

Most frustrating part; 2 players covering the same patch of grass. (Oregon run)

You forgot, get blown off the LOS every play

thewaterboy

12/7/22 3:18pm

They gave opposing receivers a 10-15 yard buffer every play and still got beat

And they don’t even play football

Tuiaki’s D was very complex. It was nearly impossible to figure out how to

RossoNeri

You make a point… if someone were to say how complex it was they probably said

And just how would those coaches know more than people on this website, exactly?

Only a master tactician can figure out how to leave the middle of the field that wide open virtually every play.

Disco Lemonade

It was complex, complex to figure out why he believed in it.

Mabuhay Coug

12/7/22 3:21pm

Maybe for the players, but opposing offenses seemed to figure it out pretty quick

Everything is complex to that man

It is aggressive because it causes crazy mental pressure by dropping 9 or 10

It starts in the trenches and it helps to have elite dbs so we'll see

Which works out great when you have Clark Phillips or Jaylon Johnson or...

A good pass rush covers up a lot

Yep. Make the QB run or throw of the wrong foot or rush his timing

Problem, you don’t have Utah’s personnel.

Problem Solved: Jay Hill is an ace recruiter, Tuiaki is a really nice guy but

Windward_Coug

Jay Hill needs speed and athleticism to run Utah’s scheme. HC limits this.

CallSign

12/7/22 2:51pm

Yes, I hate that the honor code bans speed and athleticism for BYU students.

durandal

12/7/22 2:54pm

It does ban speed, #DontDoDrugsKids

Perhaps you’ve heard how the HC is enforced? Or at least used to be…you really

Desertcoug85

Thankfully, some has eased up, but it needs to be changed to only the Bishop

Absolutely. I also hate the public way of handling, Van Noy, Davies, Hadley, ect

Mabuhay Coug

12/8/22 2:16pm

This is why all Utah players run sub 4.3 40s

Cougz19

12/7/22 5:18pm

Yes, CB does have speed envy

12/7/22 5:33pm

So the offense can get speed and athleticism, but the defense can't? The only

12/7/22 2:54pm

You don’t have team speed and athleticism. It’s a known fact. Speed kills BYU.

CallSign

12/7/22 3:01pm

DBs and WRs are fine. RBs have fine speed too. LBs had speed and athleticism but

Not at the first 2 levels and Gilford has down well at the third.

That's because we'll have BYU's personnel and they'll be better.

Yep, it is our DL right now that is the biggest weak spot

What they've been doing with DBs has been good. DL and LB has been piss poor

Jay Hill and Kalani worship KW. How are they ever going to recruit against him

Awesome! Just like Kalani!
