Late afternoon quote from David Hale. Proves to me just how bad the DB coach was from the get go. Coach Richt, WM was your hire. We are glad that you came to your senses before it was too late.
“It’s a whole lot different, especially with the footwork that Coach (Scott) Lakatos is teaching us,\" Rambo said of working with his new defensive backs coach. \"Most of the people in the NFL run the same thing as Coach Lakatos is teaching us. It’s a whole different footwork thing from Coach Martinez.”
And not to bash Willie Martinez, but here's how Branden Smith discussed learning that new footwork:
“Backpedaling, coming out of the breaks, turning – those are different,\" Smith said. \"The footwork that Coach Lakatos is teaching us right now, I’ve done it in high school, so it’s nothing new and it’s easier to learn.”
My guess is that WM paid more attention to the receivers EYES. High school coaches teaching this system, . . . . makes one wonder why WM was residing in Athens. Sad . . .
