Glad you addressed the situation with langham and Cager on the field at the same time. That needs to be fixed ASAP because like I said Rosier is not consistently accurate to be throwing to receiver who can’t get consistent seperation(Cager/langham). It is hampering how explosive our offense can potentially be
 
the discussion about cager/langham and what that decrease in speed does to our offense was interesting. i think it's worth noting that hightower and dee wiggins were getting early burn vs toledo, so it seems like richt is maybe trying to get the offense to a place where he has the height outside he wants but in players who bring more speed and athleticism.

something i noticed vs toledo is that it seems like richt likes that height out there especially on third downs. i noticed several third and longs in that game where jeff thomas was on the bench and we ran out cager and langham outside and mallory or jordan in the slot. i can't knock this exactly since cager had those big third down conversions, but it was definitely weird to see someone like langham running that little pivot route to the flat on that one conversion. he was able to make a guy miss but against better/more athletic defenses a play like that is probably not going to fly.

Very surprised to see Wiggins getting burn before Pope.
 
First time I've heard Chad Thomas music. He's really good.

**** shame richt sends them out outside of the red zone together. I’m just a casual fan and that makes no sense to me.
 
I can’t believe this content is free — by far the best, most consistent, and in-depth sports analysis that I’ve read or listened to. Excellent job guys.
 
Underrated observation that the top three impact players on our team are Dallas, Willis and Thomas, all OOS kids. We've got crazy talent locally. But you have to pursue elite kids nationwide, especially regionally in the SE. The point about Blissett's shuttle speed and overall athletic potential is dead on. I've been a fan of his the moment I read about his interest in coming to Paradise to get a hard offer. and watching his HUDL highlights. I think he'll contribute immediately.

Regrettably, I have to disagree with your guest on Rosier's abilities. Don't get fooled again. His accuracy will always be inconsistent. Toledo was one of his best games ever, and he only hit mid-50s in completion rate despite wide-open WRs all over the field. And the moment we play strong defenses, he gets discombobulated and becomes a pick machine. Great kid, not Miami QB level.
