LOOK: Ole Miss fans fed up with DC Wesley McGriff after another abysmal showing from Rebels' D
After trailing 7-0 on Saturday night, the Alabama Crimson Tide rattled off 62 unanswered points to pick up a lopsided win over the Rebels.
En route to the 62-7 win, the Tide put up 516 total yards of offense, even while taking their foot off the gas pedal late in the blowout.
That didn’t sit well with Ole Miss fans. One week after giving up 41 points and 629 total yards to Southern Illinois, Rebel supporters have seen just about enough of DC Wesley McGriff.
As you can see below, McGriff was the subject of a lot of frustrated tweets on Saturday night:

Wesley McGriff is a joke. Recruits don’t even know who the f he is. It’s beyond time to fire the dead weight on this staff. This program is embarrassing @RossBjorkAD

Wesley McGriff is simply over his head he had no previous experience of being a coordinator and his first coordinator job shouldn’t have been in the SEC…it’s not Luke’s fault now but it will be if he is still employed there next year.

@CoachMattLuke if Wesley McGriff is the D coordinator after this two week showing, it’s going to be hard to continue my fandom. Worst scheme I have ever seen #letsgowin

Name another human being in another occupation, ANY LINE OF WORK, that can be as pathetic as Wesley McGriff is at his — AND STILL KEEP HIS JOB…
What? Why? How?

Wesley McGriff will not be receiving a Christmas card from me this year.

49 point before halftime.
If Wesley McGriff still has a job after this game it’s an indictment of Matt Luke and Ross Bjork for not doing something proactive about the worst defense in college football.

Please fire Wesley McGriff at halftime. I beg of you.

The Rebels have a chance to get back on track next weekend when Kent State comes to town. However, fans won’t just want to see a win — they’ll want to see some major improvements on defense.
another embarrassment on national t v a half empty stadium in the second quarter
t v announcers making fun of the defense, fans leaving, and of course the stupid mascot
this is the state of ole miss football
nice going ross…..
Thanks for making state fans look bad
He’s right.
Secondly, you’re obviously an Ole Miss fan so I’ll tell you you’re making Ole Miss fans look bad.
The Ole Miss offense is still a jugernaught. The defense still sucks. It’s easy to overreact to a Bama blowout. Every team in the conference has done that at one time or another in recent history. Luke does need to take a tough look at the DC situation soon.
and the university needs to take a look at the A D situation
Thanks for making state fans look bad
Not to pile on but to call that performance on offense a juggernaut is one of the greatest misuses of juggernaut I can remember!
But, but, but “McGriff vaulted the Commodore secondary to one of the best in program history”
