So the Grinch came up with his genius idea for a defense. Get small. Get Fast. Attack the gaps. etc.
After reading a bunch of articles on his "scheme" he left out a little thing called "adjustments".
It seemed to work when he first rolled it out at WSU. Turned lots of heads. Got him a better job when he sold it by stating that he just needed "his Guys".
So he sold it to Oklahoma. First thing he did was make a D lineman lose 30 lbs. What could go wrong?
Well it NEVER really worked at Oklahoma, even when he got 'his Guys' and starved some of the ones he inherited . And it was a biblical disaster vs the Big Boys. They simply got run over. Cause SIZE MATTERS in football. Just like Height matters in Basketball. Twitch speed matters in baseball, and acting matters in soccer.
Came across this. for only 19 bucks, you can see all his secrets. Some of it is free.

Remember. The key is you have to stick with it. No matter what. Some day it will work. It's innovative , its genius. Keep getting smaller. Keep getting faster. Coach 208 is all in. How about YOU? Maybe put all those wide receivers around on the sideline on the D line. They are really small, and really really fast.
Genius I tell you. Genius. sc
It was a lousy idea to begin with. I saw it from game 1. Hence why I came up with the nick "Kenyans". It took Sanka and IQ66 12 games to see there might be something wrong with this approach, yet still trust the coaches, LOL! Dumb & Dumber at its finest.
If The Grinch and staff focused on teaching these guys sound fundamentals we'd have made the playoffs at the very least. Instead we watched one team after another (regardless of talent) run us over.
Now those two dipshits are in full spin mode and Riley just put his full support behind The Grinch
Nice story....part you left out was the defense got better and was ranked in the Top 50. Huge improvement over where they ended up the previous year...down hill after that..
You try this at Wazzu because you have to. You forget this at OSU, OK and USC because you can. If you're not smart enough to know the difference, you're in the wrong line of work.
I suspect next year will be the last time you hear of Grinch in D1. USC needs to start getting Riley's buyout together. He's a fraud.
At some point you have to stop beating a dead horse, if for no reason , for the sake of your mental health. You have posted the same point well over a 100 times. Enough. Relax and let’s see how next year plays out. This years defense was set up to get some stops and turnovers. They did. Most of Grinch’s halftime adjustments worked. 4-8 to 11-3. Somebody was doing something right. You will counter by saying it was all Caleb. Do you not realize he had a very good offensive line, great receivers and very good running backs who never ever fumbled. It’s a team effort
