I know Mario is obsessed with getting better. And by sheer willpower he’ll make sure the offense will improve. We’ll be better on offense next year. The only question is how at this point. So yeah it’s alarming the amount of WR’s we’re missing on but it’s only a matter of time before Mario self corrects imo
Just because we had to move a punter to WR does not mean we should aspire to wind up back there. And that 2002-2006 stretch was with the guy who let the wheels fall off, not an $8mm/yr guy who we brought in for his recruiting and hope to move the program forward. We are not far off from having to do that with DT either.
I agree 100%. Mario wants to win more than anyone and I believe that he knows that he got it wrong this time. I think everybody’s frustration is just with the timeline/urgency to make quick changes. Add on the constant portal/staff moves by other teams and it can definitely make the fan base a little irritated.
remember shortly after the last game of the year you said we would be happy soon. Is whatever you were referencing still on the table?
in Mario’s position I hire Josh gattis 10 times outta 10. I’m in year one of a lifetime deal essentially at the school that made me plus he runs a lot of stuff I like. Sometimes it just doesn’t work. Sure we had a talent issue but it wasn’t as drastic as our scheme made it seem
It’s been a weird timeline man I won’t lie to you but I don’t think gattis coaches here next year.
Also helps that Jimbo got absolutely KILLED by the media this year after the way his offense played. Im sure mario payed attention and will not look to be the next Jimbo Fisher for the media.
My hope is it’s done quickly and we are able to get a couple of WR1 types either in February or the post spring portal period. It seems like this one is a wash for now. But whether they come now, spring or summer, as long as they are on the roster for next season with a better play caller at the helm it doesn’t really matter when these additions happen.
The money forced jimbos hand. Im not sure if anyone other than Alonzo or Mario himself can make him change anything
Our leading receiver for next year is likely on the roster already man
Dang, this is actually a quality post! Once you get Deion off your mind you can actually focus and put some thoughts together, lol. Nicely done.
By process of elimination you’re probably right. Not many high school guys left that we were involved with and who knows who hits the portal. Maybe there is a Zay flowers out there that they can actually get this time.
I’m high on George. He was my fav of the bunch he committed with. I feel like it was a small sample size but he’s an easy mover with the ball in his hands and he’s always open.
Agreed. This is Mario’s show. It’s the only reason he’s even here in the first place. He wasn’t going to leave Oregon to come here to have his authority questioned, especially when we’ve been a **** show for 15+ years
Just the part when he kills G-Money
That’s a Barringer-crater sized miscalculation looking at the roster we had & thinking that style of Offense was going to work.
You know I’m with you, but call me crazy I don’t think buddy had any intentions on winning this year tbh. Buddy being Mario
