**** aint looking too good.

• Some of what we’re hearing inside the UM football program: There’s not great optimism about this offensive line improving dramatically because they’re not athletic enough against athletic defensive fronts that can run around them and not strong maulers against big teams that can wear them down… Even beyond the porous protection, receivers aren’t getting open enough and the skill position players aren’t breaking enough tackles… There’s concern that the freshmen linebackers, who have battled various ailments, might be wearing down…

Well that just soured my day.

Water is wet, he didn't report anything we all don't know.

 

[rt cane]

LMAO, the defense is being killed by our offense and our offense is being killed by Richt.

 

[jevoasis]

Eben more shocking is how a no talent **** like Jackson continues to be employed as a reporter

 

[TreOFive]

Not a surprise for those of us who were not fooled by the 4-0 vs the jv squads.

Some of you set yourselves up for failure by thinking playoff, running through the SEC west, etc.

i am still excited to have MR and yes do feel let down after being so excited for season to start. he has plenty to fix but I like the glimpses Ive seen.

Sounds like Richts play calling is going to be extremely limited by the OL. Can't zone block because not fast and athletic, can't man block because not strong enough, so basically means there is no way to get a run game except the backs doing it themselves. Since no threat of run game and 20% chance wrs will drop passes, defenses can just blitz an immobile qb all day. This is Richts doing?

We zone blocked with these same exact lineman and didn't look nearly as bad at least in pass protection last year

LOL at UM starting this "we have no players woe is us" nonsense again.

If our OL isn't strong enough that's because Rick deemphasized power training and concentrated more on endurance work under Felden. That's a choice they made.

The whole thing is a sorry *** attempt by UM to do what UM's been doing now for 14 years--manage the fans by disseminating information through puppets like Jackson. We've been hearing them toss our rosters in the media wood chipper for 14 years now. It shouldn't work anymore but it will because they know how stupid and gullible people are.

Quit scapegoating current players. It backfires. All they have to do is say it's early in the Rick Era and he needs time to get it rolling. Use the Saban 7-6 **** if you have to or point to Rick's second year turnaround at UGA. But, jesucristo, stop this stupid **** of scapegoating current players through unnamed "sources".

Sounds like you believe every bit of propaganda you read.

 

[Saviorcane]

I heard Jackson's unnamed source is a Quincy's busboy.

 

[KrazyCane]

what makes it worse is when you have a QB that lacks any sort of leadership qualities and Is too scary to push himself or his team to get over the hump

 

[NVA CANE]

Any coach worth a **** will get the most of what he has. If Diaz didn't get so much out of the defense we would have people saying we have to wait til he gets his guys. You don't need "your guys" and they don't have to be in "your system" for years to field a competent product.

Either you can coach or you cant. It's not about wins/losses right now, it's about if you're fielding a product that people can envision winning with in two or three years. Right now that's not the case with Richt's playcalling. There's a talent issue but that reason doesn't tell the whole story.

I guess we remember it differently. Seems more or less the same to me. Allowed Kaaya to get knocked out for several games with a concussion, Rosiers mobility helped them out little bit during his starts.

 

[Memnon]

Of course the Defense is worn down... They're on the field all game long!

Every time we get a stop, the Defense has to be back on the field in less than 30seconds because our Offense gets a 3 & out every single ****** time.

Brad Kaaya's best skillset is the 3 and out.... he does that like no other QB in cfb

I will delete my account here if Miami beats ND on 10/29. I have absolutely no faith.

 

[LuCane]

Part true. Part Propaganda.

The fact we have to resort to any spin already brings me way down on excitement going forward. No one here really expected a run at the playoffs. Now we're not good enough to compete in the Coastal? Funny @ WRs not getting open enough with the route combinations we've been running. Either 5Vert (not even 4Vert) or everyone play outside the hashes and no deeper than 12 yards.

Good stuff.
