Yeah...mentioned I heard that a while back also but people are hot buttoned on Lynch at the moment. If Wildhack tells Babers he needs new blood at Oline and OC/QB at season end, my guess would be he will give Babers plenty of bank to fill the slots. To much invested in the stadium and season ticket holders to go cheap there. Babers may need to focus on letting a new OC run the show as long as they align philosophy wise.
U have to see he has no concept of putting the defense on its heels. All u have to do is go back to 1st and goal a bad a bad call on a pass and then 2 brilliant called runs up the middle for 1 yd each we kick field goal. Sorry but that is lazy playcalling with 0 out of the box thinking to get a touch down. That isn’t cav who does have to go but Lynch is just as bad oc as cav is a oline coach. He doesn’t try anything remotely different ever. I have said this since last year, we run 0 hot reads when we get blitzes. Every oc has hot reads in case of a heavy blitz and usually they are quick hitters to the inside guys or pop passes to te. We don’t do any of that. We used to with Lewis and erv but not now. The more short stuff in towards middle of field relieves pressure cause they have to cover. Won’t be able to blitz as much. He has to go. Maybe he does oline and someone else does oc but lynch is not the guy.
I shouldn’t have sent that last message. Stuff I already said and came back to later and didn’t see rest of thread. Sorry.
So if hcdb is the other half OC(and likely every call goes through him) are his the good calls? Lynch's the bad? I guess it seems like Lynch is a scapegoat of convenience.
If that’s the case I don’t know. Then Dino needs someone else to do it other than him and lynch. Hey if Dino is heavily involved in the calls every play then we are screwed. There is no rhythm with play calling. Things work late in games and then instead of starting with what works we do the same old crap and it’s like they forgot what worked. I don’t know the exact answer but whoever calls plays should not be calling them anymore
I think the entire system is predicated on consistent play from all positions. Not great play, decent play. Without that? Here we are. If we need to mask that further? So be it, but I believe the system is designed to cover for some of that, in the first place.
Excellent post - the extremes on both sides are interesting.
Gene Chizik says hi. His record was 2-10 at Iowa St. when Auburn hired him.
This is how I used to play Xbox. It's also the way McF'it ran plays. Either way it's not a good thing for a P5 team.
Sorry to point this out but this tough stretch you are referring to here had 3 winning seasons out of 6...in a row. That shows at least some level of sustained mediocrity. We are below mediocre this year. We flat out stink. I think we will be hard pressed to get to 6 this year. So no, the rebuilds are not on equal trajectories.
The only difference is Mac had a new dome to impress recruits. We can hope the renovations, new football operations center, and upgraded assistants will have a similar effect.
I didn't say they where
Ok that’s something I can understand. But the only dumb thing we have done is trap up middle from day one.
If any team is willing to pay Dinos buyout and he wants to go then he needs to go.
