Lester on @ESPNSYRACUSE on the h-back: will do everything. Will definitely carry the ball. Move all over the formation to create mismatches

Syracuse OC Tim Lester says he's got film from 16 spring practices. Players using it to improve and recruits being shown the tape on visits.

Lester reiterates hybrids will line up everywhere and be used to create mismatches on WILLs, DBs, etc.

I'm not sure if this makes me feel better or not. I guess I'll just be patient and wait for the season to start before drawing conclusions.

Lester: "If I'm teaching Terrel (Hunt) right, the coverage will dictate where he goes to."

 

[CuseLegacy]

Lester says he tells each guy in his room: "your job is to act like the starter."

Lester says early in the season his focus will be on his guys executing properly with he new offense

Lester said he's considered putting one of the true freshman QBs in the box with him during games. Will decide midway through the year.

That's it for Lester on @ESPNSYRACUSE. A good interview as always, but nothing earth-shattering.

How dare you do such a thing! This is a Cuse football fan board

As long as the offense is rhythmic and fits together nicely, I'm okay with this. I don't want four offense with jagged edges.

Taking advantage of, and doing all that is possible to create mismatches is a good thing. Kinda thought that's the way it was supposed to work.

Well, at least he didn't say Pariani's Orange.

Just be thankful you didn't have to suffer through last years "offense" with us. Common sense would have you throw screens to speedsters and jump balls to big targets. We apparently tried to catch defenses off guard by doing the exact opposite... with results you would expect.

The Rhode Island game can't get here fast enough for me. Onward and upward!

GREAT Broncos and Texans offenses worked so great with Gerg. SHOOT ME

let's get an offense that's a mix of one good college offense someday

Oh boy.

Let's hope he does a better job at this than Pariani did.

I loved the 2012 offense, married pro pass game concepts with college spread, zone read, hurry up.

Game plans were very opponent specific in terms of play call balance and where they wanted to attack. Simple and sophisticated at the same time.

Well, his job is at stake.

 

[Millhouse]

this stuff offends me more than mcf*ckit's media forays

KNOW YOUR AUDIENCE. NO ONE WANTS TO HEAR ABOUT SHANAHAN AND KUBIAK MY GOD

does lester know anything about Syracuse?

why is it so hard for SU to just do what other schools do and score points?

i cannot believe we're having ANOTHER coach talking about the shanahan broncos. JOHN ELWAY IS PUSHING 80

 

[OrangePA]

Just execute.

Know the plays - make sure each player knows his role and just plain execute.

Don't worry about number of plays or the time between snaps.

Just execute.

 

[Alsacs]

Those comments don't exactly make me feel comfortable. It is easy to run a pro style offense when you have a roster full of professionals. I mean pro offense don't really work in the college game. I just hope we can squeeze enough points to win games this year.

 

[Rocco]

All about execution and limiting mistakes. We'll be fine.

 

[IthacaBarrel]

West Crap Offense. I just hope we can run the ball and that Hunt gets 75 yards a game on the ground.

 

[omniorange]

Ruh-Roh, George!

 

[orangeinjersey]

West Coast offense means 5 yard passes, great. Guess we know how much better hunts passing game got
