    Upon Further Review- Major Applewhite

    I’m not communicating the way I intend to. When I say peer groups, I mean that the results are vs peer teams within their group. Such as Houston vs Tulsa, Oklahoma vs Texas etc. I included the elite teams to give a level of context to show what Miami aspires to.

    Which is why the numbers are vs. peers and not all teams. Doing it against peers takes into account talent disparity. By the way, we would LOVE to have D’Eriq King here at QB. Greg Ward Jr. also put up incredible numbers there.

    That number was compared to his work at Houston, where he did have a very good QB. It wasn't his career average. I included it more to show where Miami needs to aspire to get to if they want to join those elite schools. There is a reason I chose those four programs to compare to.

Excellent question on Yards Per Play, why my focus was more on Points Per Play when I focused more on Yards Per Play in the DC thread etc. Please allow me to share my reasoning a little further: 1.

    Same formation as the earlier 3rd-and-long with two RB’s and then stacking the receivers to the field side. This time they hit them with a draw that busts for 50 yards. Texas is having a lot of luck with that designed cutback run out of shotgun. Down block the DT, push the edge wide, LB’s are...

At his press conference, Manny Diaz promised, “We will have a fantastic offensive coordinator, a great quarterbacks coach and a great scheme.” Coach Diaz also promised, “An offensive coordinator...
