Im sorry but GERG has done a horrible job with the LB's, let alone calling the defense. Mouton should be an all american in my eyes.  How many runs are we gonna see get bounced to the outside because our LB's get washed up in the middle and lose contain? You play how your coached.

and avoid the question.

Explain to me how it is that the hated, fail Greg Robinson can teach two people (Ezeh and Demens) the exact same scheme and one player succeeds...and we blame the scheme?  How can any player succeed when coaching is the problem?

A logical person would say that one player is better than the other.  A logical person would not say that Ezeh was taught to stand there, never attack the LOS and accept a pancake block.  A logical person would look at how Demens played and conclude he was taught to read and fill gaps quickly in order to avoid blocks and meet the ballcarrier at the LOS.

This entire subthread is about how well Greg has coached the LBs.  No one, anywhere, is saying that Demens' performance in one game means Greg is an all-world DC.  That's your classic strawman that you keep throwing out because you have this seething rage towards the guy.

Demens' performance does, however, validate Greg's handling of the MLB position and lends support to the idea that Mouton/Ezeh are simply not the greatest LBs and that the LB schemes are fine.

Well it took the coaches 7 games to realize the Demens is better...Isnt that bad coaching? That it took 7 games to decide this guy is better than that guy?Its not like GERG is working with youth like the secondary. The LB play has been absolutley horrible and so has the defense...isnt that all on GERG? YES!!!!!!!!!

Apparently Kenny didn't practice well.  Contrary to popular opinion, it CAN get worse than Ezeh at MLB.  The coaches began mixing in Kenny in goal line situations and he earned a shot at the start, and has done well.  This is normally how younger players displace experienced ones.  Remember how Lewan came in during BGSU and impressed?  And then was awarded the start?  This is what coaches do; it's normal.
