We’ve never needed a coordinated to hit like we need this guy to this year
Honestly, what Dawson wants to do on offense isn’t Earth shattering. He’s not doing anything crazy. It’s just basic Air Raid stuff. You don’t need huge playbooks and 25 different formations with exotic personnel packages to be good on offense. You make it simple. And you make it to where decisions are automatic for the quarterback. You see X and you do Y. No need to overthink everything.
That was one of the most telling quotes on there. Gattis was the smartest person in the room and everyone else needed to be where he is or you just suck“Because if it doesn’t make sense to him (TVD), then it doesn’t matter what I know”
Pretty much sums up what we watched last year. It’s the only way an OC can make TVD, Garcia etc look like they’ve never played the game before
That’s how it felt for sureThat was one of the most telling quotes on there. Gattis was the smartest person in the room and everyone else needed to be where he is or you just suck
Works for meWe scored 18PPG last year.....just gimme 30 and we're 9-3 minimum
When hiring a younger coordinator, I want to know who he worked under and what is his offense taking from them. A guy like Rhett Lashlee, to me was a home run hire. You were getting a guy who was raised on Gus Malzahn no huddle who then got a master’s degree in Sonny Dykes air raid.That’s how it felt for sure
I also don’t want to make this seem like a huge deal but it’s also why I pump the brakes when everyone gets in a fever about hiring someone “young and innovative”
A coach has to be a teacher, something that usually comes with age and experience. Calling cool plays is part of the deal sure but it’s little things like this that has me optimistic about Dawson. I like his offense a lot, but also really like how the man carries himself, and when he speaks, I believe him.

I agree with you but you flipped the points averages for 2016 and 2017.Heres what the Mark Richt teams at Miami did, with a 20 year old playbook and every 3rd passing play bring 4 verts
29 - Kaaya
34 - Rosier
29 - Rosier Kosi flip flop
at some point I’ll move on, but what Gattis did was **** near criminal. I hope he gets fired at Maryland mid season
30ppg is the floor for Dawson. If we can be at or above 35ppg, we can be baptized from the Gattis filth and take off like we all expected

lol the video is 31 mins long and you asked this 35 mins after OP posted it...lacking patience?Why is there no replies? I can’t wait to watch this
I agree with you but you flipped the points averages for 2016 and 2017.
Also, those numbers include FCS opponents. If you include The Bethune Cookman game, Gattis' scoring jumps to 23.6 points.
For real.To your point against P5 we averaged 16.8
Just ******* kill me
TVD is still TVD as wellHonestly it depends on our OL health.
Nelson, Cohen, Lee, Cooper Mauigoa (mix in Rivers, Sagapolo, Okunlola etc) and we should be able to put up more than 30 points per game we with talent we have on offense. I also am not talking about throwing up 99 points against Bethune and Ohio to raise the average.
I don't think I have ever seen a UM team as injured as last years but that is ok. Going from finesse to smash mouth requires a mindset change a lot cannot make (see departures).
It would not surprise me at all to see drastic improvement on offense this year.
I did not include him, RB, WR and TE's because all of those rooms are capable of putting up more than 30 PPGTVD is still TVD as well
We aren’t that far removed from potential Heisman candidate talk with him
Whenever I see big turnarounds by teams it’s usually led by a really good veteran QB. Not sure what it’s going to look like this year, but on paper, yeah I am with you
Oregon fans warned us about that and it came to fruition, kinda like how we warned fans about past coaches and they didnt listen.. Injuries happen but I have never seen sooooooo many practice injuries that took players out for long term, not even games just like UO fans warned, guys just popping up before games as out even in season like Restrepo before AM.. Zion, Citizen, Chaney, Restrepo, Arroyo, etc. I NEVER seen anything like that, that neanderthal mindset needs to e evaluated because does it matter if you are the baddest toughest team if you have key players out for extended time?Honestly it depends on our OL health.

To your point, it all starts up frontI did not include him, RB, WR and TE's because all of those rooms are capable of putting up more than 30 PPG
Exactly. It's like connect the dots. Man, I hope we're fun to watch.Honestly, what Dawson wants to do on offense isn’t Earth shattering. He’s not doing anything crazy. It’s just basic Air Raid stuff.
