We've go about 4 guys over there that are good at their jobs. The rest is amateur hour. Go win this week and shut my mouth. I'm begging!
Name the 4. Bc at some point you are going to rail on them too. So go on they record of who the 4 are

Bc he wasn't air raid. We know

Yeah all of our big pass plays came off play action from pistol, definitely not a staple of air raid offenses.

Yea ... we definitely have big time D problems. But we gained only 200 yds at home against LSU while Arky lit them up for 426 yds (289 pass/137 rush) and 25 1st downs in Death Valley. KJ was 21-31 for 9.3 yds per attempt.
And we also sucked against AZ. We probably played one of the bottom 4 Ds in the SEC this past weekend. So I'm not ready to say we don't have offensive problems just yet.
And besides ... we only RTDFB for 32 yds at 1.4/att. Yet this staff gets a pass on RTDFB? WTF LOL SMDH.
Yea ... I'm betting you and the home boys are pretty tight **

We get zero pressure on the QB. That's the bigger issue.
And we are awful against mobile QB's. Which is probably why our fans covet them so much.

Also- Arkansas has a new OC as well.

My biggest issue personally is just the misleading statements to the fans. If you want to be pro style Spreadahan- fine. But don't tell me we're not moving far away from the Air Raid and then run what we are, that we're going to play our best 11 and then throw a freshman o-line prospect and Goede out there at TE while Creed sits because he has to rotate with Tulu.
And then on top of it- we're struggling on both sides of the ball.
But because this group of coaches isn't doing anything that they said that they would- it's not going to buy them a lot of grace from fans and boosters. Especially with the program struggling.

Agree with Todd. For me it is the public statements that then do not add up. That has lost me this year.
CZA said a couple weeks ago to SEC network guys that his defense was on the field too much the last couple of years....... So I looked it up.
2021 - we were 7th in the nation in time of possession.
2022 - we were around 55 in time of possession.
2023- so far, before hitting the SEC full season, we are 123 in the nation.
He knew those stats from the last 2 years, and just threw out BS comments instead of saying "I simply changed my mind"

In this video linked, We ran Air Raid concepts. Period. Everything from the wide splits to no TE. Nobody ever stated that we ran exclusively that. In fact, the OP clearly talks about 11 personnel. Way to be over the top though.

The only clown I see is the one demanding that we stated all we ran was Air Raid Concepts. Nobody stated that but you.

I gotta spread some rep around before giving to 4 again. Rookie staff in over head on and off the field it appears.

It's actually 5, because Mele is doing a good job. Forgot about him. The problem is at OC as much as anything. DC isn't good, and he'll, he got bumped by Leach. Our recruiting/development on defense has been terrible. At least Turner has 22 playing big. We're wearing out Juco recruiting now to fill all the holes. And we kept our staff mostly on that side. It's a big pile of crap. If you can't see it, oh well. You're one of the few. You're an insider. You know there's problems.

I'm not an Air Raid guy at all. I just want a competent OC who isn't running his limited ass offense with players that have no business being on the roster at TE. It's not working. We've got the personnel from the AR. If you can't be flexible enough to get the best players out there, you suck. It is til game 4 to look remotely competent after sitting down with our QB to talk. Should've happen a month ago or more.
