Shannon Dawson is the New OC/QB Coach

[CalCane]

All that Kentucky **** needs to stop. Judge him when he was with Holgerson and running the O’s that he came up in. Not what Stoops made him run.

Funny thing is the year he was with stoops they ran the ball. A LOT. And for a high average. This is what I’ve wanted here for years. Hopefully he’s the guy but should be a lot easier to bring in WR’s knowing we are throwing the ball.

Will someone please tell me how to feel about this? Thanks, in advance.

The Arroyo knobslobbers aren't happy

 

[MadCane19]

For all of the mouth breathers here who never heard of this guy until last week and don't like the hire, tell me, who should Mario have hired?

For whatever reason they can't believe better guys obviously turned us down.

 

[hollyhood27]

Hypothetical...If he was OC this past season, what's our record 8-4? Outside chance of 9-3?


only real CIS-ers would say 15-0

 

[Unsider]

What next?

 

[stormbrewing]

Tvd will excel in this offense and the o will be dramatically better. Wr’s will want to play in this offense. Feel free to bump this. Solid hire , not **** but the scheme is far more effective for SFLA

I hope we go back to what TVD and the WR did last year of Lashlee

my .02 is I am happy with his style of offense assuming Mario lets him run it.

This game has been and is always about talent acquisition. Goal is to win championships right? Well in the last 10 years the champions have been Bama, UGA, Clemson, LSU, etc. **** Tony Elliot I think won 2 championships as the OC of clemson and at UVA last year he averaged 17 ppg good for 126/131 in the country. You telling me the 2 time championship OC forgot how to coach an offense? Or that perhaps your plays tend to work better when your guy is better than theirs.

Dawson is all about putting playmakers in space, we now need playmakers to make those plays work.

We need a thread just for what Houston fans think of him.

Based off reddit they're happy he's gone. They reckon Holgorsen took play calling duties off him later in the year.

Just leave this board

No you should. Bumbag.

 

[Empirical Cane]

This should be fun.

 

[Cylo]

I like this way more than Candle or Streeter btw.

agree, the Streeter thing I thought was someone Mario wanted to hire

Shutup

Don't be a slurper

Someone enlighten me plz bc as of right now this is a joke hire. Sorry these dudes don't get the benefit of the doubt from me anymore.

 

[dolemite79]

Houston fans are thrilled

 

[CanesLifer2]

Definitely intrigued to see who his WR coach is gonna be.

I'm intrigued for the sole reason of wondering how it typically goes when a historical pro-style/physicality mentality HC hires an OC that runs air-raid/veer and shoot type offenses. Makes you think what can the offense be with this passing game combined with a Mario run game similar to what they did at Oregon.

Worked pretty well for Pittman hiring Briles. Any other examples out there?

Coley is my guess. Purely speculation.

Cool. Who calls someone a bumbag?

 

[FL Cane]

This is a big step for Mario. It shows that he's willing to change and will do whatever it takes to win. Couple in the fact that he, Zo, and Radakovich were involved in this decision, and I think it's a solid hire.

If the guys that know football - @JayCane20, @JustAFanHTX, @Cribby - think this a good hire, Imma go with that.
