Enos is the OC version of Randy Shannon

My biggest complaint with Randy was the absolute lack of adjustments during the game. He had a strong basic set and his D's at the U were usually decent at tackling, but his lack of ability to make adjustments on D, especially in the 2nd half of games, is what lost us the 2003 Fiasco bowl among other contests.

Enos, has a good base to his offense. I like our pro set, I like that we at least have some pre-snap movement, etc. Also, before the opposing DC adjusts, we've been moving the ball early in halves. HOWEVER, just like Randy, he doesn't make adjustments to amplify the strengths on his team. Like Randy.

Look, I'm a fan watching games and I, along with 99% of the fans on this site, see that even against CMU, we can't have our QB drop back, read the field, go through his progressions and then deliver a strike. We might possibly have the worst OL in a Power 5 conference and that is not hyperbole. If you actually watch our full games and then watch middle of the road teams from non-power 5, I can't think of one that is worse consistently than ours.

So, what should a million dollar, highly rated OC do? Adjust. The QB should have a rolling pocket, which will take away some of his options, but WHO CARES???

JW's release of the ball needs to be on an internal count. By (fill in appropriate number) he needs to throw a strike, run or throw it out of bounds.

Um, where's the wildcat? I said in the beginning of the season, if we're not running it at least 5 times a game with DJ, we're wasting his talent.

Anyway, it goes back to Manny and how cutthroat and serious about winning he really is. If he has any intention of a sustainable career as a HC at a P5 school, he better put every last coach on notice. So, let's see if Enos uses his supposed offensive genius to adjust.

He'll be a little more careful in the following weeks about pre game comments I would hope.

This is null and void by the fact that Randy Shannon as a DC fielded defenses that shut quality opponents out. The fact that you even compared Enos's offense to a defense that was good enough to win enough games to play in the Fiesta bowl is silly.

You obviously didn't understand the comparison. To each his own, I guess.

Bruh. You saying what Randy didnt do with the strengths he had... But what Randy DID, was know how tf to coach that defense that lost 1 game in 2 years. So obviously whatever he did worked, and the only time it failed was against the Fvckeyes in a National Championship game. Even then his defense lost to the refs. His defense wasnt struggling against **** Middletown 5 Lakes of Michigan.
 
Also, just to clarifiy that I'm arguing your specific point. Your biggest accusation is that Randy lost us the Fiest Bowl by failing to adjust in the 2nd half. You do realize the Suckeyes only score in the 2nd half was a field goal as opposed to the 2 TDs they had in the first half?

Krenzel just ran for another 1st down again...
 
Randy Shannon was a title winning DC, who fielded top ten units like 6 out of 7 seasons he was DC.

The only similarity to Randy i see is our current head corch who is even less competent than Randy was as head man.

Are we really gonna ignore the elephant in the room that Randy coached a defense full of NFL draft picks?

Much ado about nothing! It seems that " filmLAME " has some SERIOUS issues with Mr. Onion Head.:confused: But then again, a lot of EIS dudes didn't care for that Mr. Onion Head. Go figure.
 
There's a lack of rhythm to the offensive play calling. Enos gets to infatuated with play action when the line we have right now can't hold up to let those plays develop. Multiple guys straight up whiffed on blocks. The jet sweep runs are starting to become predictable. We bunch things up and try to run power when we've proven that's not something that can be done as of now.

Enos needs to adjust and spread things out and put Jarren in the shotgun 90% of the time. Get the ball out fast to help the offensive line when they do whiff on those blocks. Try to hide the deficiencies of the offense not expose them.

Enos doesn’t matter
We have a completely clueless head coach. It doesn’t matter who he hires

I'm beginning to wonder about the diminutive Diaz, too. Yeah, I've opined that he needs three seasons and what not. But ****, TNM's author has been OUT COACHED by a Great Grand-Pa and a two-time NC assistant. Go figure.

And dig this. Bud Foster has TWO WEEKS to prepare for Enos, and Hispanic first cousin, Fuentes, also has two weeks to prepare for a neophyte head coach. OUCH!

The bottom line is IF Miami loses at home to mighty VA Tech, the season is going to down down the crappy stinky Orange and Green toilet faster than a NYC minute. Yikes.

Have to agree - Randy stunk as a HC but pretty solid DC

Mr. Onion Head should have NEVER been Miami's head coach. He was a FOURTH method DESPERATION hire. Because the AD/University President at the time DIDN'T want to SPEND the money to hire an experienced 2nd or 3rd tier head coach! Nothing more, nothing less.

And that's why I gave Mr. Onion Head the benefit of the doubt and NEVER had any ill words to speak of him. He also was HANDCUFFED when it came to hiring sound assistants. Enter the cash flow situation in the athletic department at the time. hUh
