Sunday Morning QB- Just Cant Give Them The D Edition

[Really Clark?]

You have to forgive these Mississippi high school football coaches. They are still about 35 years behind the rest of football.

There are a few that actually run something modern, but this may be the only state where you still see wing T based systems at the high school level.

Frisco, TX won the 2022 state championship in 5A running the Wing T. It's run all over the country, but that contradicts your talking points.

Offense is fine. Statistically, it?s close to what Lech did last year. I think it 1.5 point difference and a 15 yard difference. Barbay actually scored 17 on Alabama. Leach scored only 15 points in all 3 of the games combined. It?s only year 1 in Barbay?s offense.

If we were playing FCS and MAC teams all the time, it would be an average offense for those levels. The problem is the play caller is just so bad at actually sequencing his plays that he renders the offense ineffective.

30 PPG

[sandjunky]

30 PPG

It?s actually 29 points per game - 26.6 if you take out the FCS opponent

[sandjunky]

Well, no its not. Last year's offense scored 28.6 PPG without the ST and Defensive TD's added in

So far- this team scores 30 PPG

Thats just straight facts and not some made up FPI bullshit.

Straight facts and all - make sure you?re taking out ST score for this year - which you didn?t

[msudawg1200]

30 PPG

Yeah, and after 6 games last year we were averaging 38 PPG.

[sandjunky]

Tougher opponents last year too

Traded
Memphis for SELA
Bowling Green for W Michigan

Same as last season

Spurrier was never going to get it even if Leach retired and hand picked it

I heard that too.
In your opinion, who would have been a HC candidate off the offensive side? I was ok with Arnett if he made minimum changes only, and tried to slowly acclimate to being the HC. Now in hindsight I wonder who else would have been an option.

No one, yet. Drew will be there soon, but not yet.

Zach was by far the closest to HC on the previous staff. No one on the offensive side. Drew, we will see in 5 years how he does. He's bright.

[Coach34]

We are transitioning on offense this year also. Leach was in Y3

[was21]

What else can be true? Spot on

[Santiago]

We are transitioning on offense this year also. Leach was in Y3

I say he was basically year 2, with the lack of a spring in Covid year, and short season. He had 2 recruiting cycles for talent at a school that had never been known for prolific passing. He was signing and recruiting more mobile QBs.
Our staff made the decision to transition yet again in an offense, when so much of the offense was returning.
I would think if we were running the previous system, with some running added, that we are producing more with the known offense.

edit: we could have been using those TE scholarships for defensive help instead.

[BlackSailsDawg]

Same as last season

No it isn't. I gave you the link that took out the FCS team we played in 2022 and 2023. In FBS, we are less than last year

That's your way of masking it.

29.6 last year in FBS play with a tougher schedule and 26.6 this season. I get that you NEED to add in the FCS to prop up this staff.

[Really Clark?]

No it isn't. I gave you the link that took out the FCS team we played in 2022 and 2023. In FBS, we are less than last year

Yes it is and I even showed you the numbers when you only look at offensive scoring. 26.75 last year 26.6 this year. Almost identical.

I posted on this when somebody stated that Leach was taking defensive scholarships to load up on WRs. It was totally false! Leach had less WRs vs the WR /TE room the year before.

You want to know why the defense is bad, because our new HC started signing less DLs

No it isn't. You only get there by picking and choosing what to count.
