DJ Coleman

And the Florida Gators defense showed up, okay? The Florida Gators defense showed up.

And it was guys like DJ Coleman, fantastic portal addition.

DJ Coleman is someone we spoke about before we knew Florida was targeting him.

We were talking about him.

Before we knew Florida was going to target DJ Coleman, we did a show on Lockdown Gators.

It was like, hey, go get this kid from Baylor.

He looks pretty good.

Which, again, October was our biggest month we've ever had, I think.

Like that was brutal.

DJ Coleman, kind of a similar deal.

We asked him about the defensive performance, clear improvement week over week, I would say from this defense.

And he's like, yeah, like, you know, that's nice.

Corey, I want to ask you, the Gators have started 11 of the 22 positions that they have on offense and defense are transfers.

Philo, Harrison Moore, Bailey Stockton, Emmanuel Adebajo, and DJ Coleman are to name a few.

Who do you think's been the best transfer this season for the Gators?

Man, that's a tough one between, I think it's between, I don't want to say my man's name.

sure.

The punter's been sick too, man.

I know that that's not something that we have to talk about anymore on the show, but looking through the list here of players, and I'm not going to name them all, DJ Coleman has had a couple of big hits, but I thought otherwise just okay.

Lakota Dupree is not a guy that we expected to see a lot of catches out of, has done really well blocking, so I think that he's done fine.

I thought Kanye Clark did some good things.

DJ Coleman, 33, got some nice moves inside, did some good things there.

LJ McCray was really good.

11 really flashed.

Ben Hanks broke that one up, right? He should've, he should've hit thumbs down, threw a box around Bryce Thornton something.

Uh, DJ Coleman, who I love what he's done this year, I think he's been really good.

Uh, Brendan Bett, I know that he, he's like...

He's, he's just not getting enough credit.

And I will say there s- there seems to be a consistency with certain players calling out themselves.

DJ Coleman consistently has been doing it.

Chiles, Graham, Dallas has been very vocal and very loud of, like, "This is, this is on us as the players." And apparently they, according to the article, after the, the, the post-game, Dallas asked to speak and kinda went on a tangent of drop your F-ing balls [laughs] uh, to, to everybody.

So, you know, I, I love hearing that from our players.

I don't think they have any chance of slowing down a team that's even remotely functional on offense.

And the frustrating thing about it is outside of Jayden Woods' play against Ole Miss, I mean, I guess DJ Coleman had a pick as well, uh, in, in one of those games.

And has had some nice hits.

Yeah, but I mean, can you tell me a guy...

LJ McCray had two missed tackles.

DJ Coleman had two missed tackles.

Bryce Thornton had two missed tackles, and Cormine McLean had two missed tackles.

Also, LJ had those two missed tackles on, like, 15 plays.

Every day we are available daily and free, whether it's on the podcast and on YouTube.

And DJ Coleman, Jaden Woods, Brendan Bett, they spoke to media this week.

And I thought with DJ Coleman, he had one of the best responses about what you have to see from players and what those mistakes may look like and, and, and, how players need to make the plays that they're being put in position for.

Again, I'm not saying that everything is on the players.

I don't think that's true at all.

I do think that there's, again, the argument of, well, players are being put in position, right? DJ Coleman was talking about playing with more violence and said, I feel like we have to play with more aggression on defense.

I feel like we're playing kind of passive.

I mean, some people might think it's a scheme, but I feel like it comes from us.
