Dunlap never had a problem with past coaches because this is the first time he was asked to play a different system, he didn't like it, he quit. I saw the effort he was given with my own eyes. I know what Dunlap was capable of, and he was barely going through the motions most games. That deserves a demotion, whether the guy behind you is worse or not.
The thing is thay neither you or I know for sure what the issue was. There could have been a lot more to it than just playing in a different system. Once Dunlap got healthy in 2019 he played great in that system the second half of the season.
Dulap's father said the coaches wanted to move him after the 2019 season but the front office would not agree. So in 2020 they just started phasing him out.
Like I said, neither of us know all the details. All I know is that Los has a long record of playing hard and being very productive under winning coaches whi know what the hell they are doing. Mranwhile even our best young defensive player has publically said that there were "communication problems" with the defensive coaching staff in 2019.
