[QUOTE="deeeznutz, post: 522242, member: 837"] So I've got a question for you...if we do have a decent-to-good year and win 6-8 games, will you see it as an amazing coaching job by Collins, or perhaps that the cupboard wasn't as bare as so many of you keep demanding that it must be? I think we have some really good athletes on both sides of the ball, and most of them should be able to transition to whatever system we're going to. Our young QBs have some good arm talent in addition to superior athleticism, our BBs are all good, powerful runners, our ABs are a bunch of athletic scat back/slot receiver types (who are all drilled in the importance of perimeter blocking, and should be good at it), and our WRs are big-bodied outside receivers (again, drilled in the importance of blocking). On OL, which is probably the biggest issue, we shouldn't have a problem fielding guards and centers (most of our linemen likely project there), but we also have a few guys who do fit more of the OT mold. Given a little more practice time spent on pass blocking techniques, along with not being in a leaning forward 3 point stance, I don't expect us to have a huge problem improving in that area. A skilled OC should absolutely be able to create an effective offense with the parts we currently have. On defense, we've got some talented athletes who just need to be put in the right place and utilized properly and we should be able to improve. Will we be top 25? Maybe not, but we should be at least competitive for a bowl game. [/QUOTE]
