The only legitimate complaints about cushion were Chris Wilson's last year as d-coordinator when he wasted 2 excellent corners by playing them 10 yards off the LOS.

And doesn't contradict i thing I said. I even said our coverage was poor. But you have to understand the change in offenses. In 2008 you had 3 teams give up more than 200 yards per game passing in the conference. This year you had only 4 that didn't. It's been this way since 2012 really.
Weakness in the cover 3. Corners bail to get deep to their zones. Good offensive schemes will recognize it & have pre-set audible to capitilize on it. Cover 3 is less than ideal against good running teams unless you have stud on the d line. This should be run when you have good balance in d line, secondary & linebackers.
I'm excited about Grantham if this is true. One question I did have though, will Sirmon leaving be made public or will they try to make a good PR move by just announcing the hiring of Grantham? Considering we've had so much turnover at DC that may be a good move.
It will be presented as follows:
CL: Inside sources say Sirmon is gone to Colorado.
Keenum: We never said that.
CL: We are sticking by our story.
MSU: Sirmon is gone to Colorado.
CL: See we told you so.
MSU/Keenum: You suck.
CL: Grantham to MSU
Keenum: We want to break the damn story!
Grantham just trying to get a raise from Louisville. I expect Rhoades will be ******* choice. Good choice.
I don't mean to rain on the parade, I'd be ecstatic if we got Grantham, but... if he's indeed closely linked to the Wakeyleaks stuff, would he be in danger of getting a show cause?
Thread on the pack saying he will be our new DC. We will see.
