[QUOTE="takethepoints, post: 969038, member: 265"] Ok, I think the prospect of a successful season is now over. Here's a list of what I saw today that should be fixed next spring/fall: • Tech needs to find a reliable RB or two. We had our moments running the ball in the first half, but that disappeared. Tech needs to go out and find a Mason/Howard/Mills kind of player who can deliver reliably when the holes are there. Given that all the players mentioned were mid-3 star types (yes, even Mills) I think we could find one or two. • Conditioning needs to be addressed in both lines. The linemen are gassing out by the fourth. The easiest solution is to get everybody to lose weight. Out DTs all could play better 20 lbs less and so could most of the OLs. This obsession with piling on the weight and "muscle" as a recipe of success has been completely blown over the last 5 years. What we need on both lines is more speed and flexibility, not more size. • Tech needs to abandon the present NFL-style O and get a lot more inventive. This would mean a complete shakeup of the O staff, but we have to face it: Tech will never get the talent to run a Bama/Ugag O efficiently. Here's why: [MEDIA=youtube]0h19anH4MdE[/MEDIA] I've posted that clip about 6 times here and it still applies. WE ARE THINKING LIKE THE YANKEES. That won't work. We need to have an O that will deliver using the talent we can recruit, [I]keep[/I], and develop. I don't care what set Tech uses or anything like that, but there has to be an awareness of creating advantages for our players during games. Right now, that isn't happening consistently. • What I'm talking about may not be what Key wants to or can deliver. But he should try and try hard to do it. More of the same won't help much. For right now: • Tech should consider giving others in the QB room a shot at starting. We need more consistent QB play. Well, enough. I was very disappointed today. The program took a hit from BGU.
