Murray had speed at wideouts and they were play makers. Something we have lacked forever.

It is not a done deal at all, but when 2 national writers put your coach on a hot seat list it’s because your AD is back channeling agents about their clients interest in their job should things continue to go south. It’s a very real possibility.

Just pointing out a FACT that he played in a pro style offense NOT the air raid. And threw it way less than Rogers. That's all.

I know, I really like that offense they ran. We need speed and playmakers. Gonna be interesting to see what adjustments we make against the Hogs, I hope.

Bingo.
Let's face it, if Selmon is worth a damn he's already got a firm gauging interest so he doesn't get caught flat footed 6 weeks from now if we have to pull the trigger. He needs to be proactive, not reactive.

I like the way the offense is moving. It's easily more enjoyable to watch. We are transitioning and the slow start was part of that. I've seen an offense get better the last 3 weeks- we were better against Bama than we have been in awhile. With 2 weeks to prepare and even tho its on the road- we should have a solid day offensively. UPig is middle of the pack defensively and has improved alot in Pass D since last season when they were terrible. I expect us to play hard and the game should come down to the 4th Q
Defense will probably decide the outcome vs UPig- not offense

Translation: We run the ball and don?t do much in the passing game, so you like it.

We are 9th in Total offense currently after being 8th in the SEC last year
We have improved from last in the SEC in Yards Per Pass to 10th currently.
Scoring remains the same
Rushing is greatly improved
Yards per play is up this year to 6.06 from 5.5 last year
And we are at 51% run/49% pass- BALANCE
Love where we are going offensively

True story right here. Kinda like pitching. It usually decides the outcome unless you are completely abysmal on offense.

Agree. But I think he means who has the worst defense that day. But I'm not optimistic.

There is nothing balanced about this offense. EPA per play is down around 40% from last season, and they have played weaker defenses this year than they did at the same point last year.

If that?s truly the case, then Selmon is the one that needs to be fired. Selmon wasn?t hired to ?make a name for himself?. He was hired to run the MSU athletic department. A good AD doesn?t hire/fire to make a name for himself. A good AD hires/fires based upon what is in the best interest of the program.

Ok. But are you a believer in this specific staff as a whole or just this offense?
