Coaching Monday Media : Mario, Josh Gattis and Kevin Steele

“We played very solid up front,” Steele said. “We had a very specific game plan because of the quarterback, the quarterback draw and scrambles,” Steele said. “They’re not a huge committed-to-the-run team but we played the run well. We collapsed the pocket, affected him.”

“We start the game out and we spied a defensive lineman,” Steele said. “It looked like a four-man rush but it really was a three-man rush. We were not affecting the quarterback very well. So on our four-man rush we were kind of cage rushing the guys on the edge, more speed to power than just speed rushing.

“So we just cut it loose, let the ends rush. And that’s what we did.”

"Canes QB Tyler Van Dyke -- who completed 42 or 57 passes for 496 yards against UNC -- was named this week's ACC Quarterback of the Week."

Miami had:
392 total yards against Texas
463 total yards against Southern Miss
367 total yards against MTSU
539 total yards against UNC

Against UNC Miami had a 7:3 pass to run ratio

Gattis:
"Depth presents challenges with fatigue when it comes to physicality, running the ball, etc.
So we'll start to see some new faces, new roles increasing."

Of course we will see new faces doing the same old **** because he's still over committed to running up the middle once every 4 plays.
We don't need to be an air raid team, but his commitment to the run is insane at this point.

We're coming off a week in which our offensive output was BY FAR the highest of the season. Our QB was named best in the conference one week after being benched! Our O scored 10 points in under 1:30 because they were airing it out.

Gattis offense needs to score points and to score points it needs to gain yards. His players do one thing significantly better than the other.

Does UNC have a terrible pass D? Obviously. But supposedly they had an equally bad run D, yet Thad, Rooster and Parrish managed a whopping 2.2 ypc against them.

The moral here is play to your strength instead of being committed to a weakness.

Kevin Steele says all the right things. I respect a coach that can do that and have the resume to back it up.

Josh Gattis on the other hand….. yikes
