Lamar Jackson

Yep, gotta be fair to Lamar that was yet another sad Big Ten call. For all the calls the Big Ten fails to make every week, they sure love to call the ticky-tack bull on us every opportunity they get.
His play was poor, but that was a very weak call on the pf
I'm going to withhold judgment on Lamar wait to see what he can do with a different defensive coaching staff.
This secondary is poorly coached. Talent is being wasted. Coach Dubs is not cutting it.
Did you see what happened against Ohio State? But maybe Bootle was playing a different position that game?
What is the point of even commenting then? We arent saying he couldnt ever be good, we saying he's doing now is poor.
Well all i know is as far as run support goes ...Bootle gets off his block and isnt afraid to lay the wood. As far as coverage goes not sure
I hope the new DC and what ever position coach he gets next year gets him going. He’s got all the talent in the world. Great height, weight and so on....like a few said, he’s just not getting the proper coaching right now. With a good DC that will teach him (/all the DBs) good coverage, techniques and how to break down and tackle better. He gets tha coaching, he can be very good in near future. Plus side is he is still pretty young. Remember he didn’t rs last year.
Donte Williams?!?! He’s been here this one season and let’s face it, he joined our Huskers at a horrible time. Maybe with a better HC and DC, Donte Williams can do better. Like one poster stated, at the worst case keep him around for lead recruiter. We all know dudes as Elite as it gets when it comes to that and we will need the help In the future. Donte and Keith Williams both need to be retained in some way. K Williams should remain WR coach if all possible. Maybe Frosts current WR coach, assuming he follows him over here, can co/WR coach or take a different role. Has to be a way to keep K Williams. Hate Riley and Lang’s and Diaco all you guys want. But K and D Williams need to retained....even if there placed in different roles, except K Williams. We won’t get a better WR coach then him, period.

I guess I was talking specifically on coverage. Bootle really struggled against Ohio St, but really no worse than Lamar.
You're exactly right on the rum support.
Williams would have not been the coach Diaco would have hired but SE did that. Took a recruiter over a coach. Elliott would have handled the coaching but his health changed the plan.
Matt Davison made the comment that Jackson seems reluctant to hit guys on the field, but then he goes and hits a guy off the field...
Seems to me Lamar lacks the hips and explosive speed needed to be a good corner at this level. Isn't it that simple?
Lamar should be WR on offense. He looks lost and timid out there. If he can't cut it on offense, probably should be "processed" out.
My point is I'm not going to bag on the kid simply because his play is far from stellar I don't think anyone on defense will make all conference but perhaps with the right coach Lamar could become pretty darn good
I think Diaco by himself is lost with our staff. Losing Bobby Elliot was a terrible blow for Diaco. I appears to me Elliot was the brains behind Diaco's successful years at Notre Dame. We've got a bunch of guys trying to play a new defense with a bunch of coaches on the sideline who have never coached it before this year. We should have seen this disaster coming.
