Did the WRs getting called out have a spring training in this system?

Todd - a first year head coach that inherited an arguably worse program and has arguably less talent made him look like a rookie at this (Pittman). His salary matters because we are paying him so we expect something in return. So far, 50% of this board could have coached just as well or better than he has on the offensive side of the ball.

I'm so tired of this excuse. Do you realize we have a 6 week fall practice to make up for missed 15 spring practices? You can't use that as an excuse. Mizz,OM,AR are doing just fine on offense.
So back to my post earlier. The SEC is a different kinda monster and the problem with the air raid is it won't work due to the size and speed of the defenses here. We could practice for 10 weeks and still continue to have issues

I would rather have 6 weeks of fall practice than spring ball anyway

You are correct. If Leach doesn't adjust, he will fail. It's as simple as that.

Joe Moorhead had a successful offense everywhere he went as well

based on 7 straight games vs Washington, 4 straight games vs SEC teams with varying levels of talent, based on the adjustments that all of his former assistants have made, and based on common sense.

18 years in the Big 12 and PAC 12 doesn't equate to what he faces week in and week out in the SEC. so you can keep going back to the 20 years or whatever but fact remains. This two average defenses held is to 7 points offensively.

Yeah, I mean Mike Leach was the head coach at Texas Tech 20 years ago. He was there from 2000-2009. Most teams were still using a fullback.

Exactly the Air Raid was great but the when he faced defenses with physical DL and Speed it's basically nullified anything he can do. The LB in the pac 12 are like strong safety's in the SEC. yes some AR principles can work but you have to be able to run the ball and the QB has to be a threat to run. We have less than 200 yds rushing as a team this year
