Richt emphasis on establishing the run

Is killing the offense, we averaged 3rd and 8 or so **** near all night because we couldn’t get positive yards after running it so much on the early downs. Richt has got to stop doing this and start calling more agressive plays on the early downs period because it’s killing the flow of the offense getting next to nothing due to those slow developing run plays even when the sh*t is clearly not working.

Uhhhhhhh...what?

While I agree, he has to be a bit more aggressive...he should not...EVER...EVER abandon the run. However, he often does. And when he does, we are in a dog fight and taking an L.

When Richt is at his worst, he's NOT establishing the run.

v. Pitt - 23 rushes
v. Clemson - 30 rushes
v. Wisconsin - 29 rushes
v. LSU - 34 rushes
v. UVA - 29 rushes

The OL is so weak - physically and in technique - a “run first” design simply wont against even a decent P5 defense. Searles is stealing money.

At least use the pass to set up the run. Make the defense think.

So if say you had Dan Marino running the options( yeah, I know, I know, but hear me out) and it continually gets stuffed - well, does Marino just have to execute better - along with everybody else?

That's Richt's 'logic'

Pretty much.

Isn’t a coach’s job to get the best from his players? Maybe I’m wrong.
 
Like an occasional slip up or missed assignment fine. But when you can't move the ball through the entire game look at yourself coach.
 
we have not won since we have gotten away from the Pro-Set offense

A big and Major reason we are in the predicament is because of the BULL**** style spread Offense that does not allow us
to impose our will on the enemy. it has no Identity and lacks the killer instinct to make your opponent quit.

The University of Miami was originally put on the Map, first and for most because we implemented a Pro-Set Offense. period.
we didn't follow the norm and that is what made the entire nation stand up and take notice to this U.
we need to get back to the old school style line up in the I with a FB & TE and Sloberknocker and ******* seek and destroy the will of our opponents and than light'em up over the top deep
.....enough with the sandlot offenses..

Quote from Richt, it's the players fault apparently -

“We ran things we thought would succeed and they didn’t. And why they didn’t succeed, we’ll see. Most of the time when you look at the tape it’s a matter of somebody or a couple of guys not getting their job done, normally."

This is the extent of his playbook, he thinks he's being creative when he says this:

"We called plays where we took shots. We called plays just trying to run the ball — we had inside zone, outside zone, we ran counter."

He said that **** like he was naming EVERY play ever invented. lmao
"We ran the Statue of Liberty! We ran the Hook and Ladder! We ran Chutes and Ladders! We ran the Annexation of Puerto Rico! We ran the Catalina Wine Mixer! There are no more plays! Last stop!!! Playtown!!! End of the line!!! What more do you want from me?!?!"
