Sorry man, didnt mean to rip into you specifically. I just keep hearing this over and over about how kids can transfer and immediately play because of the redshirt rule and it drives me crazy. But I apologize for my tone in that post. Ive got a newborn at home, havent slept in weeks and am losing my sh-t! Lol Mea Culpa.

Harley has increased his playtime and production over the last few games perhaps more than any player on either side of the roster. He isn't transferring and sitting out a year. Neither is JT4.

What if I told you I wasn't and this comes from people in the staff?

I am telling you I don't care if you play for pop warner or NFL, it starts up front. Why do you think we are so dominant on Defense? OUR FRONT FOUR ARE UNBLOCKABLE.

I am going to have nightmares of Mahoney on roller skates into Rosier AND Donaldson getting his face crossed EVERY PLAY at guard. FML

Dude... if your O line can’t do something well, don’t force em to do it over and over. The coach needs to work around his weaknessss and he refuses.

So basically,
1. Do not run the ball, at all, ever, even with a lead blocker.
2. Do not do anything more than a 3 step drop, so all routes have to be within 10 yards...

Basically that's what you want.

The only thing you can do really if your O-line is crap like this is have designed shotgun roll-outs (UVA actually did this in the game), which unfortunately kills all play action or RPO options, and makes you one-dimensional. If QB rolls hes passing, or scrambling, totally limits your offense.

I feel for Richt at times because these lineman are not really doing anything, but there are things he can do, as infuriating as it might be to not have a set of 5 big uglies that can hold a block for 3 seconds...

Really dude?
 
Oh lort. AR got benched for yelling and is ****ed at the staff, oh wait he has a career ending injury, my bad. You all read into some stupid ****e. Richt had been gushing over Harley for weeks and then says it "might" have been on Harley in his interview. Maybe it wasn't Mike's fault and then Richt apologized and then Harley posted a forgive thing on Instragram, I could make maybes up all day. Quit reading tea leaves.

FYI I think Harley Sr was just referring to the game itself.

Come on man, you have to play along here. The locker room is divided, half the team (including all the good players) is gonna transfer out, Manny Diaz is about to leave to take over as head coach of Louisville mid-season as soon as they fire Petrino, and Richt is gonna run nothing but FB dives and 4 verts on offense the rest of the year.

Actually, if the defense is giving me underneath passes all day but selling out on the run, I do agree that we should not be running the ball. Conversely, if they start moving guys back in coverage and it looks like we might have numbers, by all means run the ball. We aren't good enough up front to consistently bludgeon even bad defenses, so to be successful on offense and sustain drives, I feel we need to do a better job identifying exactly where the soft spot in the defense is on every given play, and attack it.

So I thought something was wrong on weds when Gauthier said in the post-practice interview:

-Offensively, we had a **** practice, really bad
-Guys were in their feelings and were ****ed at being yelled at for doing things wrong, and upset about playing time

Video here:


To myself, I said, this aint good. These kids shoulda realized they had a poor win vs FSU and needed to improve, show some urgency.

Post game, Rosier said the entire offense was doing up-downs after this ****** practice. Like really? Yall ****ed up that much to all have to do up-downs? I feel like im back in highschool lol. They must have really been a pile of crap to get that treatment.

That being said, summing it up with the coaches all thinking mid week that it would be either a close win or a loss based on practice and attitude, it now all makes sense.

The question is who is to blame for the offense being a bunch of prissy *******? I think there is an element of coaching that is in there, but also we need offensive leadership INTERNALLY which seems to exist on the defense but not in this group.

Richt is right, its on the coaches to motivate and fix the issues. They recruit the kids, they develop the kids, its on them if the kids they got dont execute what seems to be a simple scheme.

As far as why these kids all seem to be ***** made neon deions, I think it comes down to society lol. Saban probably doesn't deal with this **** because these kids know they can get to the ship. I think Richt needs to get back to being a hard-*** here to make this work.

Yea let's blame the players for not having themselves prepared for an average Virginia team. We should also blame the offensive players for the shi-t game plan richt has for every game. I'm sure richt being a "hard ***" is going to do wonders for the team. It has nothing to do with richt not knowing how to scheme worth a shi-t or not knowing how to use personnel properly. GFY.

Harley looks like Harley when Kosi is playing. Harley looks like shiit when Rosier is playing.

Who do you think Harley prefers? Case closed.
Click to expand...

kosi should be playing but he aint a good QB either. hes got talent, but hes been pretty bad for the games hes played in outside of FIU. id go with N'kosi bc the talent is there and he can make the throws rosier can't, but hes just as bad mentally as rosier is in terms of reading the defense

If any of this is remotely true then how come the person who should be mad at the world, Perry, isn't? How can you explain that?
Click to expand...
Maybe Perry is smart enough to realize Rick did him a favor by rescuing him from drowning that night. He looked like he was on his way to a 6 pick implosion that would have damaged his psyche more than getting yanked early and be allowed to save face and be portrayed as a victim by the dopes who didn’t recognize how lost he was.

This is what I meant when I said Rick lost the fanbase after the UVA game. The vultures are out now and they’re emboldened by the other vultures. It’s a feeding frenzy where everything written or said by any player or coach is a cryptic slam on Rick.

This is the point where everything start s getting toxic with the vultures ****ing on everything and anything Rick and it seeps into all things UM football.
 
The offense will fold if 12 starts. They'll be deflated and lose confidence (and a lil respect) in Richt. Shoot, they folded on Sat.

Richt isn't dumb. He knows this. But he's also stubborn enough to not care.

Team might still win out only giving 50 %. They have enough talent. But boy will they be miserable.

I agree, you nailed it with that post. The crap has started to roll downhill quickly.
