Early thoughts on Gattis?

Where do you stand?

  • I'm satisfied with his scheme and play-calling and approve of his job performance.

  • Sample size is too small, I'll reserve judgement until we play some quality opponents.

  • I wish we had hired someone else.

Results are only viewable after voting.

What do you expect gattis to do
This is one situation where he was able to just run the ball
That’s what u do to inferior teams shorten the game and get out with no injuries
In the past of lashlee offense wasn’t clicking we lose this game or it’s really close
In the second half we just dominated the line exerted out will and got the win with no major injuries
This Saturday will say a lot of gattis

Harbaugh hired a CO-OC and got more involved this past year. it wasn't all gattis with the offense. gattis was heavily criticized before this past year

Michigan fans said this, Oregon fans said this is the type of offense mario wanted..Almost everybody in the fanbase just said they’re salty haters and mario/ gattis are smart enough to not bring that to Miami lol. Still alot of games left but all signs point to them being right
 
Woooooofffff, Will Malory. Has been overrated for a long time here and his blocking is the worst I’ve seen for a starting TE in a long time here at UM if not ever.

Seems like it might have been smarter to look at what these guys do on the field as opposed to imagine them doing what we want. Shows you what fans know.
 
The other f*cking thing you clowns are incapable of seeing is that f*ck your feelings. I give zero sh*ts about you liking the offense. I want to win, that's it. That's literally the only thing I want. So stuff your smarty pants ideas about what the offense should look like right up your entitled asses. If Mario can win running the ball 55 times a game and throwing 10 times, then I will gladly suffer through that. And the rest of you can find a team that cares about what you think you know about football.
 
the I want to win crowd is funny bc when it was Manny or golden or w.e. slogging their way to unimpressive wins against inferior teams, the board went nuts. its okay to call it like it is. we played like **** and the team doesn't look overly impressive early on. it'll get better as guys get more comfortable. there are some bright spots as well (Parrish, thad, JW, Wes, X, etc.). its not doom and gloom and its not roses. Saturday is a litmus test to where we are on both sides. we had two easy tune up games.
 
App State won with an aggressive offensive scheme. We need to replicate. The pedestrian pace will prevent a win.

You may get them but with the new transfer rules it may be hard to keep them if they aren’t being used.

For instance, WR Burton (former cane commit) just won a natty with UGA as a starter, but said F this and transferred to bama.

That’s nuts kids love bama it’s all they seen when they grew up. They basically the canes of now. Mario has to slowly change the perception going to be the hardest task ever.

There's a difference between trying to be explosive and failing and playing slow and conservative on purpose. I'd love to see us score 60 a game and throw the ball all over, but that's not what this coach wants to do. He wants to run it a million times and wear the other team down.

My point is that winning is more important than getting to see the exact plays or personnel I want to see.

Lashlee's pass offense + a few wrinkles/new plays combined with Gattis's run offense. Thats literally a winning blueprint right there.

Unfortunately even really smart multi millionaires are super stubborn to see the obvious and copy someone else VS use their own blueprint (or in this case overly complex schemes and playbook)

Absolutely not giving up on Gattis, we need to see him vs. a P5 opponent (A&M next week, he better bring out all new formations/plays/etc.) but cmon. This doesn't need to be complicated.

Lashlee’s pass offense had problems. There is a reason championship teams run air raid principles, but not the system.

Gattis’ system with some of last year’s route and split concepts would be killer.

After rewatching it, I would agree. Lots of guys were open and TVD was holding on to the ball forever. He has to make quicker reads. I'm not sure what is going on with him.

Growing pains.

This is why holding over some stuff from last year is a good idea. Makes the transition smoother.

TVD is thinking. He will be much better with more reps.

Ball control offense helps the defense.

How many 3 and outs this year?

We have played an FCS team and a terrible g5 team. Everyone’s offense converts third downs against teams like that. I’m still waiting to see how they handle someone when they’re not more talented at every single position by a mile.
 
I don't care if we couldn't run well, Rhett's offense was entertaining last year and I'm bored to tears so far.
