 Foster being evaluated for everything.

I've never played a down of organized football, but it seems to me that if Foster had even rudimentary tackling technique, he wouldn't keep hurting himself while missing tackles.

We expect to play much much better, especially defensively. Effort level was not a question just poor angles and fundamentals.

By fundamental he means coaching.

One of our biggest issues right now is guys trying to do too much. Just do your job.

After 2 years of this, it's also coaching. They are obviously not landing their teachings, not being able to relate and land communication is poor coaching.

"I'm never going to say its personnel, experience comes with time and we/coaches will handle development". Most I've seen him call out the coaches.

Yeah, to me, he seems to be laying this close to 100% on the coaches. Says we have good players that are giving good effort, they are just taking bad angles, bad fundamentals, bad fits, etc.

Then you have a bad staff Tom and it's past time to cut bait.

Asked about punt return stats and special teams

A: return game has not been good. We have to play more starters on special teams so you will see that. We should be using our talent advantage on special teams.

This boggles the mind.  W. T. F. 

Who's the safety heading toward the guy that's already double covered and leaving the back of the end zone completely open?

Q on going for it on 4th down

 

A: complex formula that I don’t always listen to it. We have to do a better job of coaching our guys in executing plays. Lot of factors that go into the decision.

 

Edit to add commentary: lot of ins, lot of outs, lot of what have yous

Tom implying he's not gonna hit the reset button.  "Believe in what you do D and get better at it."  

So he doesn’t find value in getting pressure on the QB. That’s nice to know.

When you're more concerned about making an ESPN highlight reel instead of wrapping up and getting the guy to the ground that's what happens. At least that's from my experience playing DB in HS.

Didn’t listen, but I like how he seems To be blaming the coaches for the issues. Maybe he will fire some peeps at the end of the year. 

I would think that would depend on what happens between now and then.

I was hoping that conversation had taken place a year ago but let’s see what it produces down the stretch.

No, the players. Specifically on defense I believe.

Yeah it's about the players, but it's speaking to their coaching. He's not throwing the players under the bus, which is good.

Yeah. Put them on notice and lay the groundwork for changes.

Give Dave Aranda 3 mil a year and see what he does with our defensive players.  Seriously.

I doubt he's moving on now that Orgeron seems to have stopped overruling his assistants all the time. He's got a pretty sweet set up in Baton Rouge, and it's hard to make guys at bluechips move laterally.

I would think of all the bluechip DCs around the country, Aranda would be easier as he and Herman have a history together.
