The Defensive Scheme needs to be totally revamped

Our DBs are horrible. It doesn't matter what the scheme is. They cannot cover anyone. We need talent.
Might have to wait a few years for better talent, but the defensive coaches suck. Over 400 yards given up in the second half??? SM isn't that good. Then again, UNL is playing with 4 or 5 near high school caliber players on defense at LB and Secondary.
That could be another problem a stubborn Coach not wanting to change like we had with Callahan's staff
It's an interesting dichotomy from last year, we can stop running plays but can't stop passing very well. The class gaps left by the previous staff are catching up with this team.
I don't think its fair for anyone to be tossing this staff under the bus until they've had a chance to recruit to fill the gaps. If we don't target and sign top juco guys at the second and third level of the defense to fill the gaps then we may be in trouble. There were several plays late in the game where you had freshman linebackers getting beat big by wheel route. Shows you the problems caused by not recruiting to fill your class gaps in.

Covering a player receiver is not rocket science. Banker cannot cover the receivers for them. Our linebackers are very little help either. We simply need a huge infusion of talent into the program.
