If Miami can get back to running this defense

I was talking to a friend who is more familiar with Guidry from Western Kentucky and Marshall. Knows people that worked on both staffs. He made the point that at Western Kentucky he had a starting DB who was almost completely deaf or mute. At Marshall he had the kid we tried to get to come here after he followed Guidry to Tulane and then went to LSU. He had a bad stutter and couldn't even communicate verbally on the field. Neither of those teams had any communication issues. It can't be that hard. Brain dead players is the most likely problem and that's just not going to be fixed.

Have been praying every night by my bedside that Guidry used these 2 weeks to install the same 3-3-5 stack alignment used late last season.
And what is that going to do? You do know its still going to be the exact same players we are using now. That change up last year was only because injuries. Once teams got film on that they were exposed. You forgot the Louisville game and Rutgers running all over them?
 
It makes me wonder if good to elite coordinators even wanna coach for Mario, which leads to the reason why it takes him so long to hire OCs

In it's current form (4-2-5) Miami's defense lacks the talent, speed and athleticism we're accustomed to seeing. While that can't be fixed right now, replacing an underperforming DL with a more athletic LB increases our speed quotient, and allows for some coverages/blitzes for which Wake has not prepared. Or we can rinse/repeat and stunt 4 slow DL into each other every play since that continues to work so well.

What’s worrisome is how every kind of offense has been clapping cheeks on our D [gigantic pause]. Whether a passing or running offense we can’t stopped anything.
