    Damn, if only he had played in a pass heavy offense for two years he'd have a chance. Well Woody, you heard the savant, go ahead and clean out your locker. No reason to play the game anymore.

    There's not one person on any message board that knows what our team will do this fall. Don't even think the spring will reveal it either. And I'm fine with arriving at my seat in DWS for the Southeastern LA game, not knowing a damn thing either. And probably ZArnold is good with that too.

    I?m saying that Woody is wrong in his thinking that taking more handoffs will help him long term. Particularly in an offense that will ?run the ball come hell or high water.?

    Woody and DJ both wanted more rushes to come back. Rushes. You do the math. But I don't expect you to get it. But to say they are hurting their stock bc they won't catch enough passes is just so ..........

    Woody's biggest issue is staying healthy.

    You are a damn idiot. There were exactly ZERO running backs with 60 receptions last season much less 80.

    The first NON WR with 60 receptions was Brock Bowers and 2 other tight ends.

    You are just flat out making crap up to fit your dumb ass arguments at this point.

    Probably because they listened to people who still believe running the ball is the most important part of offense.

    OR more probable is the guys who get drafted at rb actually run the ball more than they catch it. Even the best ones. Being able to catch it is important. Being able to block at that position in the nfl is WAY more important. It's not even close.

    We're probably going to look a lot more like Central Michigan than App State if I had to guess.

    I don't think anyone really knows for sure at this point if we're being honest.

    One thing that I do feel fairly confident about is we don't have the personnel for him to do what he really wants to do at this point. So let's just hope he doesn't square peg round hole our season again like every new offensive coach or coordinator we hire.

    ?Not going to miss those 9 man boxes,? Allen tweeted Thursday afternoon, a reference to the extra defenders University of Wisconsin opponents would align near the line of the scrimmage to slow the Badgers? run game.

    Phil Longo, non-Leach air raid disciple who plans to utilize the TE. Perfect comparison. 🤦🏻🤦🏻

    If I had to say with regards to who has been the biggest influence on me from a professional standpoint and a football standpoint I?d say it?d be Mike (Leach) with regards to throwing the football,? Longo said.

    I know some of you want to try and diminish the impact Mike had on offense n the modern football era, but not many coaches would say that they were more influenced by Greg Davis than they are Mike Leach.

    Man??F U C K this air raid love fest shit. Use some of it use some of others.

    Acting like the air raid was the end all be all is a f u c k I n g joke. Our offense was like watching old people 17 most of every game.

    No need to blow it up, but ray Charles can see we needed to tweak some things or recruit the absolute best players.
