Cut the kid and the coach a break. How many kids can form tackle without PEGs? C'mon....don't trust the announcers. They work for fake media. There is that thing across the road at Fremont......
Certainly is a bad look and this sort of thing will cost him a lot of money because it is on tape and is the type of stuff that scouts will see. That being said...this is a senior...he has millions of dollars on the line if he just plays hard and puts good action on tape. And he is still loafing...either he is exhausted or stupid or a little bit of both. Some people just do not get it regardless of coaching. And benching and punishing sounds great for a keyboard warrior but you have to try to build people up as well. We can barely field a nickel defense and oyu are going to bench your best corner out of punishment? Can't happen.I don't understand the number of guys who think tackling means get your head down to shin height, tuck your arms away, and dive in the general direction of the guy's feet. Embarrassing to have guys literally standing and watching. That's a coaching issue. Got em running between stations but not running during plays.
The announcers lit up Stille for jogging around out there too. That's not a talent problem, that's a lack of consequences when guys decide to just check out. A zero-star player can run hard in pursuit until the whistle blows.
Either coaches aren't noticing it, or if they are they're not punishing it. If guys won't do it on their own you gotta send em up the stadium steps for loafing or something, you can't just have starters literally standing around out there.
Pretty much the #1 thing Lovie rails on, if you do nothing else you WILL run to the whistle for that man.
#3 is just horrible, the line backing play is pathetic.Ain’t nobody home.
Him being considered our ‘best’ corner explains why we suck on defense.Certainly is a bad look and this sort of thing will cost him a lot of money because it is on tape and is the type of stuff that scouts will see.

3 & 31 went after the same guy.
Especially with a guy leading us who not only knows what it’s like, but he LIVED what it takes to be part of a proud team. Mind boggling, really. Scott is so loyal to his fellow coaches that he’d sacrifice his own job instead of parting ways with guys that have proved they don’t belong at this level.Just watched the replay on B1G network.
When one or two players don't give effort... you bench them.
Huskers are playing like they just want to get the season over. That's on the coaches.
Purdue has a lot less talent than the Huskers, but they give twice the effort. I'm not a Husker fan, but I would find it very difficult to support a team that plays like they don't give a shit.
I can't believe a once proud program could fall this far.
They are not physically imposing or dynamic but worse - they don't seem to know where they are supposed to be on a given play.3, 31 and 7 have been the biggest disappointments on defense. Did not see that coming.

Defense looks like Football version of the Generals playing the Harlem Globetrotters.

22 is the worst player on a defense with plenty of blame to go around.
To me, Jo Jo blasting in to tackle the RB on their TD reverse is this team in a nutshell. So fundamental that the guy to be on the outside has one job and that is to contain. If he stays home, he blows up the play for a 5-10 yard loss (assuming he makes the tackle), or at the very least causes the end to retreat far enough to get around him that pursuit can catch up before he scores. They have to kick a FG and we go to overtime worst case. He decides to play hero ball instead of handling his responsibility, and we lose. it doesn't even register on him that all the linemen are blocking toward the RB once the play starts.

Man Stille looked extremely slow on that play. Unhook the plow!!Blake Lawrence did a breakdown on that play. He stated that Jo Jo played that correctly and it was someone other than him that missed contain.
At first I thought he blew the play, but looks like we don't always know what we are talking about on the surface.
He does run like he has cement in his shoes.Man Stille looked extremely slow on that play. Unhook the plow!!

Yeah Frost preaches accountability, yet seems like he may not hold all players accountable.I don't understand the number of guys who think tackling means get your head down to shin height, tuck your arms away, and dive in the general direction of the guy's feet.

Then who pray tell does Blake think had contain? Jo Jo is the only guy on the outside. Corner back followed the the wide receiver in motion and every linebacker but Jo Jo was between the tackles, and the D end on that side crashed inside on the snap. I'm not buying it for a minute that Jojo didn't have contain, because if that is the case then someone lined up inside the tackles was supposed to have contain, which is the stupidest-ass defensive alignment Chinander could throw out there. No wonder he is getting out coached at every turn.
Helluva play call. Many saying this is on JoJo, but it’s not.
Tackle blocks down, JoJo has C gap and takes RB dive.
With the motion to overload side + reverse action from outside receiver, safety to overload side should take reverse action.
