Early thoughts on Gattis?

[brock]

Too early and TVD has been off too so wait and see

 

[jakeman1]

There’s a lot that he used at Michigan that hasn’t shown up yet. TE’s have barely been used, and I know he likes to use them.

 

[GoCanes!!]

I'm pretty sure this message board tries to separate the fans from the staff and make every fan turn on the team and staff.. it's ridiculous. Game 2 and this ****?

 

[Geddy Lee]

Here’s another positive. We ditched the under center play.

 

[KevinCaneFace]

You remember when Lashlees’s offense put up 31 vs UAB and 25 against App state?

But it looked fancier though

Steak Master. What are your thoughts on the DB’s so far?

 

[uprising]

The offense is fine, just needs pace. And somebody any ***'n body besides X to start goonin at WR

 

[Brains]

Mario is a dumb caveman trapped in the 80's. He thinks making his QB take two steps back before the snap is a modern offense.

This offense is excruciating to watch.

You are a pond scum gator troll who sniffs your mother's panties.

Your porsts are excruciating to read.

Personally I don't think this style of football is right for Miami. I do think we will miss Lashlee by seasons end. He is a good coach which is why he got a head coaching job.

I have to see us against a P5 defense. Southern Miss was solid defensive team last year but that was against teams nowhere near Miami caliber. The thing that worries me is the passing game looks as stilted and clunky now as it did in the spring game. TVD definitely doesn’t work as fast in this system. So much of the passing game looks like plays are designed to go to one player and if he’s covered, there’s a panic on where to go with the ball. There’s no fluidity and half the receivers seem like they’re just decoys and are just trying to run DBs away from the guy the play is designed for.

On the positive note, the run game looks significantly better. Better run blocking and much better running back play. Parrish and Franklin don’t just run into the back of their linemen and show patience and vision finding holes, especially in short yardage.

I’d still prefer a more spread system where we use the entire width of the field and create as much space as possible. We have a quarterback with the arm to make those wide throws. Too many of our formations are bunched. I don’t like playing in a phone booth. There’s so little margin for error, you need everyone to execute perfectly for a play to work.

 

[TemplarCane]

Still a work in progress.

TVD was off today, as was the interior OL.

Check back mid-season.

 

[canesbrah]

There were wide open WRs all day. TVD just has to start seeing them and take the checkdown more...that too is wide open every other play. Then suddenly the O will look so much better. Still run heavy but better.

100%
If TVD doesn’t suck today no one is complaining

 

[hydro66]

Not a fan

 

[matty1]

Have we run a single RPO this year?

Should be call long hand off. I haven't seen him pull the back and throw a pass

 

[P-Tizzle]

If TVD is TVD, he throws over 300 yards and a couple TDs and he’s sitting the 4th.

The last two weeks have been vanilla as chuck. It’s not that difficult to see that Gattis has not utilized his TEs like he does nor big plays for X and co. I like B, Smith getting reps. He’s a matchup problem. Canes will be fine. They are the best team in the coastal and it isn’t close if Slovis misses games.

I don’t think Steele has blitzed at all the first two games. Defense looks like it’s playing NFL pro bowl rules. Ivey is suspect, we all know that. But JWill, Kam, and Wes look like stars. DT play has been great and we don’t give up anything on the ground.

Let’s see how A&M goes. Both sides of the ball just seem two generic to be our true selves.

Hiding the playbook. Lol

 

[skeeper]

A better pass protection from OL would be helpful.

Lashlee’s offense did **** against Bama, Clemson, and UNC. If you can’t run the ball, you can’t beat good teams

 

[hurricaneman]

I'm not saying I'm a fan of what I saw today but TVD could have thrown for 300+ had he played a little better.

But it looked fancier though

Both those teams are way better than southern miss though. UAB beat them 34-0 last year.
