    Almost 13 years ago. I know, math is hard.

    I guess it figures today b/c you guys swear he'll never change. That 2008 game was an example of focused running in the Air Raid.

    Go look at the 2008 Texas Tech/Texas game. He ran the ball a lot that night.

    My thing with Leach is this offense screams dual threat QB. A good dual threat QB and this offense would be tough to stop.
    Yep, said that when Leach got here if he would adapt with a dual threat QB we could be tough to deal with but he will not adapt anything.

    I'm not asking for him to turn into smash mount but get at least 120-150 a game on the ground including some QB scrambles which should be possible with a drop 8.

    I find it amusing that people are saying how a dual threat QB would kill it in this offense, not remembering that CML was the only other D1 offer Will had coming out of Brandon. CML inherited what he wanted. He?s not looking for a running QB. Running QBs abandon the pass too soon, so they?re not even on his radar.

    I agree. I think some others agree with you too. Just an obvious observation how a dual threat QB could do some damage. CML got and runs what he wants. We are doing exactly what he wants done.
