Our wide receivers have looked different under ever coach and usually when it comes to sports players take on the personality of their coach unless there too far gone.. so i think if we get the best coach for those young men they can be saved
Not talking about JT himself, talking about someone with his skillset. Someone else mentioned Phillip Dorsett, exactly what this team needs
We have speed and wiggle coming with Robbie, Ray Ray and CJ Jr. Our issue is that we don’t have an AR15. We don’t have a WR1 that when we need a play lined up against the other team’s best corner against press coverage will go out and make the play. We had that with Rambo in 21 and he wasn’t even that good. It makes a world of difference. It changes your entire offense and opens up opportunities for others.
Gattis not here with a lashlee oc scheme and he’s a first round pick imo in next years draft
Based on 2023 roster with the portal adds
We’ll add in Washington, and Joseph.
People keep saying we don’t throw deep, we do. There was no one to catch it
The deep shots in this offense are all specifically called shots. There’s very few plays where the QB has the option to take a deep shot if it’s available. The entire passing offense is incredibly stiff and nothing happens organically. If the play is designed for the X receiver, that’s where it goes. If he’s not open, it’s a check down. The guys on the outside are used mostly just to run their defender out of the play, or to block. It’s a very rigid system with very little improvisation or option routes. If your route takes you right past the open spot in the zone and into coverage, you don’t get the option of breaking it off. You just have to run to the designated spot. Modern passing games aren’t like that. Modern systems trust the WR and QB to make the decisions. Almost every route in an Air Raid has an option. Receivers can cut a route inside or outside depending on coverage. They can stop their route in a zone soft spot if they get certain types of zone coverage. The QB knows all of this. It’s all about seeing what the defense is doing pre and post snap and adjusting to it on the fly. Gattis’ passing offense isn’t like that at all. Everyone has a predetermined route and role and they have to run that route. Even if you’re just running yourself right into the strength of the coverage
The scheme is 100% reliant on having a dominant offensive line. If you can’t outmuscle your opponent in the run game, the whole system goes into the trash. I saw it during the Southern Miss game and knew we had no chance the rest of the season. The first half, Gattis tried to get cute and the offense stalled. Then towards halftime, he went super run heavy and the offense was able to move the ball and eventually start scoring points in the second half. It’s great against a low level G5 program but I knew as soon as we played anyone we couldn’t bully up front, we were done.
