Those guys weren’t proven though. Rattler lost the job and didn’t set the world on fire at OU. Nix was a bust until you went and found a simple spread offense. Fields hasn’t played. Does anybody want to see Nix in this offense? Go back and look at the TDs he threw this past weekend. How...

Let me ask you this: Make all the talent on the field even. OL talent nothing but studs. Etc. And ask Kirby and UGA, from a schematic stand point, which offensive system would he rather face: Mario’s slow and methodical, huddle, bunch the box offense Or Heupel’s spread them out, uptempo...

And TVD hasn’t exactly set the world on fire in college. He’s a low 4* that would probably be rated a low 4* college player in the portal by 247 if he entered it after this season. I’m not sure he’s the best argument for not needing to land a highly rated 4* to 5* guy.

yep. Literally nobody is saying don’t be physical and don’t run the ball. But what Mario tries to do on offense has let him down. 2021 Oregon: -2.6 against Stanford -1.7 Utah -19.1 Utah Those are the 3 losses he had that year. 2019: 1.8 ASU -12.5 Auburn Those are his two best...

So the staff failed at what they wanted to do, and that’s suppose to be better?

Why does Miami have to make everything so difficult? And why do people defend the most difficult so much? Here we have Mario running an offense that has produced more negative offensive value generated games than positive ones since he’s been here. Which mirrors what he did at Oregon...

So we are going to outbid Alabama and Ohio State for “Sam Hartman” next year?

Yep. Hartman and Devin Leary were the 1A and 1B QB in the portal this past season. Leary sucks. Hudson Card was next up. Sucks. Then Sanders but he was only going to Colorado, so strike him. Walker Howard is TBD. Brennan Armstrong sucks. Tanner Mordecai sucks. Just a list of suck on...

We had like 7 OL in the game at times in non-goal line situations last week. I’m not sure that’s what Mario is trying to do.

Couch was the number 1 QB coming out of high school. He was a sure thing QB recruit. Heupel was the number 1 ranked JUCO QB that year and just who they could get because they didn’t have a non-option QB on the roster. But none of these QBs were Anderson. None were *years* away from being...

But they really haven’t. Leach didn’t make his living on raw QBs. It was the complete opposite. He largely took low ceiling, mechanically sound QBs. That’s why so few of his QBs went on to the NFL and his coaching tree exploded with young OCs so quickly. They all went from the football...

Yeah. At best Emory needs to be the Major Applewhite on your team. A low ceiling QB you keep trying to recruit over with studs, but he keeps proving he’s the one that belongs on the field. But you can’t bank on that happening. Most Major Applewhites end up playing to their low-ceiling...

The thing is, Cristobal doesn’t deserve the benefit of the doubt when it comes to QB recruiting. He’s yet to recruit a starting P5 QB in his career. And Dawson has yet to prove he has a Mike Leach style Air Raid that can plug in any QB and put up numbers. Outside of last year, every analytic...

It’s just a bad way to build a room. You take a bunch of projects that it will take years before they can even mechanically get on the field, forget be good. And then you take a guy who is more developed, but doesn’t have some all world ceiling. So you’re basically creating a situation...

Of the numerous knocks Leach’s Air Raid QBs always had from NFL scouts, their lack of height was always one of them. They still rewrote college record books.

Translation: We fired all our bullets at Air Noland and now the chamber’s empty.

I would expect them to as well. But lets say we landed the equivalent of the dude from NC State. Or a QB that has killed it in an Air Raid, like Armstrong from UVA. Those guys wouldn’t be coming here to battle for the QB position. You’re telling Leary the job is his, or he’s going to Kentucky.

Right. People on this board try too hard sometimes.

It means the point I was responding to, which is that we will bring in a big time QB to battle it out next year for the job, is a non-starter. The second you bring in that kind of QB transfer, there is no QB battle.

But the passing game is a pure Air Raid system. Any system can allow a QB to run. That doesn’t mean every system is a fit for a raw, mechanically deficient QB. Dawson’s Houston offense, especially at Houston, is not what you want Brown running if the light doesn’t come on and stay on for...
