Morning Buzz: USC Defense Loaded For Bear?

Bear Alexander was considered the No. 1 player in the transfer portal. He is going to start at defensive tackle. He is going to make USC better.

So what would be a contrarian view?

Well, he had nine tackles the entire season for Georgia. He didn’t have a sack until the national championship game, when he had two vs. TCU.

And he wasn’t named a starter at Georgia for 2023, which is why he is transferring. That seems to be forgotten by the media. He left because of playing time concerns.

I spoke to an SEC coach I know, who offered this take on Georgia.

“Georgia is good because Kirby Smart is a taskmaster and they get the most out of their players. Their top players are driven to be elite,” the SEC coach said.

Again, for those who can’t remember: Alexander is considered the No. 1 player in the transfer portal. He is going to start at defensive tackle. He is going to make USC better.

But, like with every issue, there can be a contrarian view. I doubt you’ll see one elsewhere.

  5. Riley said, โ€œDo our defensive guys look like that? Not yet, but they will soon.โ€ Riley is replacing the impractical players with football players and Scott wants to be contrary about the way heโ€™s doing it?
    Iโ€™m calling his angle a swing and miss. If Scott wants to be a contrarian he needs consistency. Go after the coach Scott. โ€œGrinch got a block of Carrara Marble and put a tablecloth on it calling it a table.โ€ Or maybe โ€œGrinch got got Corinthian leather and made a sowโ€™s ear with it.โ€
    Although the day is young I expect to see something like that soon.

  8. The contrarian view lacks definition. Read what the regular Georgia observers point out and watch what Josh Pate says. This kid spoke to ESPN and explained that the coaches saw him as a pass rush specialist and he disagreed. Much like USC coaches thought Gary Bryant didn’t deserve to start and he disagreed.

    Wolf is starting to post some drivel as if he’s a jilted fanboy. And being as predictable as Chip Kelly, Wolf will now start focusing and posting about diminished snaps for players who stay like Taleni, Solomon or Stanley and Benton.

  9. Based on what I saw at the spring game, the defensive line and rotations might look like this:

    Alexander or Taleni
    Sekona or Sullivan

    DT: Alexander or Taleni
    Lucas or Barquet
    Sekona or Benton
    Sullivan or Pepe
    Rush: Muhammed or Lucas
    Height or Greene
    Foreman or Byrd
    Shelby or Barquet

  10. It just shows that SC’s reputation as a football power is coming back and the players are beginning to believe that SC football is heading back to the promise land. After all, you have this outstanding football player who played a lot in his freshman year on a team that has won 2 NC’s in a row and is a sure bet to be a starter on a team that has a great chance to win a 3rd NC in a row and what does he do?……He leaves that team and transfers to SC. That just shows me that SC’s reputation is growing fast.

  12. All of this is meaningless unless the new guys can pick up the scheme and the variations as soon as possible. Grinch talked alot about how players would break the rules of engagement and not follow protocol in terms of responsibility. Now Sullivan and Barrs being seniors shouldn’t have an issue but the freshmen, Alexander and Lucas?

    Oh, boy.

  13. Well, he’s a one gap get to the ball and rally disciple. The problem is that he doesn’t have an Aaron Donald in his scheme. Grinch best defense was at Washington St under Mike Leach who raved about him. Without a two gap monster, your not going to be able to stop double teams with one of the blockers peeling off and taking out a linebacker trying to fill up a gap. Also, when the d-line does a slant, you need a backer to fill the space that opens and tackle the ball carrier. Look at the spring game, how many big runs where a result of missed tackles?

    Now, with more depth and fresher legs, less “rules” should be broken and less hero antics. Forcing teams to throw and getting off the field is the main goal. Having guys who can control gaps and beat double teams will make this defense resemble Georgia. But they must be consistent. Oregon St was a game the defense won but disappeared after that. Why? The scheme and defensive calls were figured out by opponents except Notre Dame.

    RFK has very little chance of winning, but do agree with any of what he says? or is he just a wacko to you?
