His O really is a run heavy O by design but in none of the 5 years here has he been able to get the running game really going. So what is the issue? How can it be fixed? When can we expect to see it fixed?
One of these things is not like the others
One of these things just doesn't belong
Can you tell which thing is not like the others
By the time I finish my song?
RB only YPG and YPC
#1 161.36 ypg and 5.4 ypc
#2 108.75 ypg and 4.47 ypc
#3 131.9 ypg and 4.99 ypc
#2 adjusted 115.08 ypg and 4.57 ypc
#2 adjusted again 108.35 ypg and 4.55 ypc
So #1 is Dino's RBs combined over his 28 games as BG HC. While #2 is his RBs over his 59 games at SU. The first adjusted number is throwing away this season's numbers. The 2nd adjusted is his 1st three years. For #3 that is the Dino inspired O at Kent State the last three seasons.
It is pretty obvious that the run game has been a failure here. Even in 2018 we only had 143.23 ypg from our RBs. That is our high mark for an O that is designed to have over 150 yards from its RBs. Dino's 1st two years we had under 90 ypg from RBs. We have been a complete failure at running the ball three out of the 5 years. The other two we have been mediocre at best.
Even if next season is mediocre, will it be enough to get us to 6 Ws? Can we expect mediocre given what we have seen this year? Does the system not work in the ACC? or is this all on the OL? if it is the OL, how does it get fixed next year?
