Waddle and Smith are pretty fast dudes. If Stokes let's either get a little separation, he's probably not making it up.

Agreed. Brooks Austin has a film study on Bamas offense that is worth checking out.

He shows the good and bad on Mac and his fundamentals. Deep balls with pressure are often short/underthrown. But the stud receivers adjust to them.

I dont see stokes/campbell catching up if a step behind waddle/smith. But if we pressure, they have as good a chance as the receiver to make the play.

The other variable (that we rarely know) is if they are expecting over the top help (lecounte/cine) and if that is why they play aggressive technique underneath.
