Very good post. Thank you for the links. But for the record, I didn't say we don't have read routes. But I do know that Stephen Hill made the comment to a Jets reporter after a few days of their minicamp that he was just doing his best to learn to run the whole route tree because there were a...

Unless things have changed since they closed practices, we used to run 3 segments, which is a total of 15 minutes maximum devoted to the passing game. And one of those segments was generally the QB's throwing to the WR's in various routes versus air. There used to be 1 live segment versus DBs...

I would say there's a possibility we may lose one more coach as well. Now that the spring football is over everywhere, there may be openings that come up at other places.

We also threw the ball less in 2012, 2011, 2010, 2009, and 2008. Did we score more points in those years than we did last year? Look, I'm just yanking you guys' chain here. But the point is worth considering. Is it perhaps BECAUSE of the threat of passing last year that we scored more...

That's something else I find curious. The article says that we threw the ball 4 times more per game than historically under CPJ. And you posted earlier in this thread the stats supporting that last year's offense scored more than the 2009 offense: So why is it again that going away from...

Personally, I thought the most interesting part of the article was regarding the offense versus teams that average allowing 4 yards or less per carry. In those games last year, we were 1-5. To me that isn't surprising and is one of my two primary criticisms of the offense: unlike more...

Exactly. So I'll just keep my "lack of knowledge" to myself. But I'll say this. I wouldn't be surprised if Eric knew of this much earlier than today. I know "some people" knew the weekend of the spring game that this was going to happen.

Just because his only offers WERE academy schools before, it doesn't mean those are his only ones now. I heard he will get a chance at RB or DB at Oregon. And this was not just him wanting to play with his brother.

It's football related.

It is a big deal. I would think that Cutcliffe could take back over the offense if he had to, but we'll see how it works out. I do know that their QB, Boone, is a heck of a QB and that can help with the learning curve for a new OC.

I must be the outlier then because I think Duke's going to be very good this year. Unless their QB gets hurt again before we play them, I expect our game versus them to be much more difficult this year than it was last year with him on the bench hurt. To me, their biggest loss was losing the...

Demaryius Thomas didn't run at the combine. He had a broken foot.

I get your point and I'm not disputing that Justin is fast. But I'd bet he will run in the 4.4 range if/when he goes to the NFL combine. I highly doubt he breaks into the 4.3 range electronically timed. Those guys are super rare. And, as pointed out above...NO ONE gets into the 4.2's. There...

Not particularly. It's about 20 minutes of talking and we're only in like 30 seconds. Both plays are positive plays for them but the coach mentions that he runs it against us because of the defensive scheme we run.

I ran across this site a little while ago by accident. It's a coaching clinic by the University of Miami. So far, I've only watched the James Coley Offensive series. Interestingly enough, the 2 plays they diagram & run on video were both against GT. (At least they said the 1st one was...

Guards are supposed to be the road grader types in this system and the tackles have to have the ability to get to the 2nd-level defenders. Kind of backwards from the "usual" setup on a traditional OL.

Bah. Hand timed 40's are never correct. Look, if he really runs a 4.2 40, he's faster than all but 2 previously timed NFL players. Again, he's fast. But if he's that fast, then Snoddy is running a 4.1 because in the race they ran, Broderick had him by a body length within the first 30 yards.

If he was paid, I suspect (but don't know, obviously) it would matter. Since the ad depicts him wearing his football uniform and shows him playing football, I would think receiving money as a paid endorsement for being a football player might be just enough in the NCAA's Draconian policies to...

Justin's fast but he isn't 4.2 in the 40.

As long as he wasn't paid for his endorsement, then I don't think there's a problem.
