Message: [QUOTE="CuseOnly, post: 740780, member: 2804"] Syracuse is not and has never been a pocket passing team that I can recall. Freeze option, read option, spread hurry up read option, call it what you will. We have always had mobile athletic QB's as far back as I can remember and yes Nassib was more mobile and a better runner than Allen. With Allen, I am not sure what defenses are supposed to fear from him, someone please help me. Is it that he throws balls directly int to their hands to be intercepted or batted? Is he that dangerous a runner? Is he so accurate that you have to cover so well? Is he going to out-think the defense and put you in the perfect play to beat them? Does he run the offense so fast that you can't catch your breath to get lined up for the next play? Is he shifty? Is he that athletic? Is the scheme of the offense so great for his style of play? After seeing him play so far, I don't see how he fits into anything at all. [/QUOTE]
