    So?. Are you saying 50% of their plays went for 0 yards and 50% went for 12.62 yards???

    Haha. I know. I know. That?s not how it?s figured.

    I can't imagine we are going to run that offense though.
    I absolutely think we will run it. QB only had 71 carries for just over 100 yards.

    They play physical and hit you with play action for big plays

    Are our 18 wide receivers good at run blocking?

    Is Will transferring out yet?

    How many of our offensive starters are now in the portal?

    Can this guy adjust his philosophy to fit out personnel?

    Inquiring minds want to know.

    we were set up to have another 9-win season next year. Now I'am afraid of this hire.. We have personnel. for the air raid but looks like now we will go to running it more again. When we have been a run first team we have been average at best.. I wish we had stayed air raid family. But I'll get on board and hope for the best.

    Sounds like a job hopper. Has he ever worked for Walmart?

    We are going back to running the ball. That is a good thing.

    Based on the stats, he has never required a running QB not at Central Michigan and not at App State, which is great for Will.

    He runs out of the pistol a ton, which I like. They beat A&M by running the ball 52 times and only completing 15 passes, so yeah - we are in for a change.

    It is a big shift. I know some talked about a modern Air Raid offense that incorporated the run game, this sure as sh!t ain't that.

    This is a pistol formation, run the ball offense that hits you with playaction. Its a massive shift.

    Now lets be clear, I like this type of offense, but I like it more with a QB run threat, which hasn't been his M.O., but holy hell, this is a big damn shift.

    Arnett is clearly putting his stamp on this team.

    Why do you have to lie to build up something else?

    We were ranked #29 last year. Leach's 2nd year. There is absolutely no reason to tear down Leach.


    BTW.. Mullen was ranked 49th in year 2.

    He will have to jump on some TEs before the 18th! we will have to maintain what we have.
