Palm Beach Post Article on Woes of Miami Offensive Line

Play calling, play design and their position coach are all issues with the OL.
Play design and play calling are reliant on execution. If a running back takes a hand off and falls down or runs backwards, you don't blame the play, you blame the execution. If you call a pass and the quarterback throws it to the wrong team or the receiver drops the ball, is it the play's fault? I expect the players and their position coaches to be held accountable for their failures.

Yet another rsfreshman being written off. Give the kid time to get stronger and develop, some guys aren't day 1 or day 2 contributors.
Honestly, he shouldn’t have been offered a spot here. He’s gonna be buried on the depth chart especially with the talent coming in/potentially coming in the next couple of years on the o line. If he is playing Center there are 4 guys in front of him. Gauthier, Mahoney, Gaynor, and Bar frickin Milo.
 
Searles ain't it.

I just found out, remember the game we dominated VT with Wefense back in 2014 in Blacksburg? Take a wild guess who was the O-line coach...

Searles isn't good and he is getting paid the most while producing the least of our asst. coaches.

You may have a point, but my recollection of who did the dominating is a little different.

You didn't see where I wrote "and their position coach".

that's where execution starts
 
After reading Lance’s review piece, Im more inclined to believe it’s not sorely the play calling. The plays were there, gotta execute. The oline was getting beat like drum.
 
I know a kid that was a first round OL as a Junior but elected to play one more year, they had a different QB his senior year that would not stay in the pocket. He went from a first round pick to a late round pick. Rosier was less likely to stay in the pocket and I think Perry might be better at staying which makes an OL job easier. Not a coach, just knew the family of the kid and know the history...perhaps a more knowledgeable person could comment if this is a factor for our team.

I gotta agree with this. I think it's the line's execution along with all the things you named. I like Richt but we have the most unoriginal run plays I've seen in a college offense. Inside Zone, Outside Zone, A little bit of Power and Sweep to the Boundary. Last week he finally added some motion. I think being in the shotgun has limited how plays are ran. He should take advantage of teams slanting away from the running back when he shifts from the pistol look. Run a same side Counter play. Add some qb runs like he had with Rosier. Add Brevin Jordan in some run blocks, he's good at it. He ran some Split Zone with Brevin last week. Have Brevin in that wing set and have him fold inside on his same side between the Guard and Tackle.
