Message: [QUOTE="RMH44, post: 4216136, member: 313"] I know you didn't ask for my opinion but here goes. I honestly believe that DeVito didn't/couldn't grasp the basic concept (take what the defense gives you) of DB's offense. Additionally, he came in with a gunslinger mentality. Combine these 2 things with a less than average offensive line and you have the makings of a pending disaster. Imo, TD's biggest failings came at the LOS. Rather than take what the D offered, he seemed to approach the LOS with his mind made up...which was usually looking vertically first and then run for cover. I'm not even going to get into his lack of feel in the pocket or comprehension of in-game situational awareness. TD might actually be OK at Illinois because Bielema doesn't ask much from his QB's and runs a very structured offense which usually involves hand-offs on 1st and 2nd downs. He won't have to make as many decisions at the line of scrimmage. Time will tell. [/QUOTE]
