Yeah it's called Georgia, lolFootball is cyclical… teams built themselves to be fast and throw the ball all over the yard. So defenses then built themselves to defend that.
Eventually somebody’s going to build a monster power squad that can bulldoze everyone and the next trend will begin.
I think offensive linemen strongly prefer run blocking over pass blocking, so I respectfully disagree about your comparison of QBs and WRs.You missed my point. You’re responding about why we should run a scheme. I’m responding about the idea players aren’t going to just flock here b/c we’re running a particular scheme.
I know you keep citing this weird fact but quick glance at any record book shows it’s not right.Do this again next week and good luck firing a coach going to back to back bowl games for the first time this century
We had 5 coming into this year…..did you know that?I thought most schools have at least 4 quarterbacks. Why do we have only two?

This is all timer box score. It’s mind bottling
Of course not, if anything they are undersized which is why they run the triple option in the first place. I do think we could build an identity around this though, possible a sustainable one. And can build from the line of scrimmage up. We could also focus on recruiting running QBs and entice RBs with it.So are Oline recruits flocking to the service academies as you’ve said, like they would here if we instituted a power running scheme?
And QB’s and WR’s don’t like a passing system?
tepk...My opinion: First of all he's a true freshman - second, IMO, they don't want him hurt - third he's a neophyte at this level, forth they wanted to play those players in the positions you mentioned. They, the coaches, had our best out there. Davis hasn't touched the field all year and there are reasons for that.If Davis is so great Bill then why wasn’t he on the field at QB instead of our starting tailback, a TE who hasn’t thrown a ball in ages and our starting QB who can’t throw a ball more than 5 yards due to injury?
No offense, but his HS laurels look nice on paper but they’re completely irrelevant now based on what we just watched. That tells you all you need to know.
That's what coaches do qdawgg. Who the hell do you think did, Dino and Becks wives, or was it the janitor? I am not trying to be abrasive but c'mon.You know this how? As has been asked in other posts. We don’t know who designed the game plan.
Georgia Tech ran the triple option for 11 years.So are Oline recruits flocking to the service academies as you’ve said, like they would here if we instituted a power running scheme?
And QB’s and WR’s don’t like a passing system?
But how many bowl games did they make?Georgia Tech ran the triple option for 11 years.
During those 11 years, 1 offensive lineman was drafted.
It’s nonsense
A bunch. But that wasn’t your thesis. You’re moving goalposts. You said our OL recruiting would improve, it didn’t help them.But how many bowl games did they make?

I didn’t mean to say we would bring in B10 type of linemen automatically, but eventually with enough success yes I think that could start to happen.

Please, sir, may I have another?Happens to the best of us. Drink a penalty beer
I did read the entire thread and I have completed my conversation with you. You seem somewhat negative and much more informed than I.Try reading the whole thread to understand the context of my post. I mean c’mon, did you really miss the whole context? Good lord.
Again I think the constant run blocking is a big appeal, enough to help with recruiting linemen. I think it’s a much different role than a QB or WR, that’s why I’m not agreeing with your comparison.But we didn’t bring in recruits running a high octane offense and athletes who would love to run in that type of system. So what’s the drastic change that convinces Oline to come to SU when the previous system couldn’t convince players to come who would thrive in that system?

He’s not a true freshman. He redshirted at South Carolina where he never progressed past 4th on their depth chart and was dropped to 5th after LaNorris Sellers enrolled there, and then he transferred here. We didn’t land him out of high school.tepk...My opinion: First of all he's a true freshman - second, IMO, they don't want him hurt - third he's a neophyte at this level, forth they wanted to play those players in the positions you mentioned.

His resume has nothing to do with playing time. I included it for a reason recruiting.
A lot of people on this board think we can't recruit. He's got a great resume coming in. How many freshman get to play with positions already filled - he's got to learn the system and mature. Maybe they think he's just not ready. MacPhail was warming up the last game getting ready to come in if I remember right.
I don't know why they don't have him on the field.
We won a game against the worst team in the ACC that some highschool teams could beat, and now Dino is Syracuse's saving grace because he ran some trick plays and weird formations.Dan Villari won’t be out QB next season and we’re not running a triple option. What the hell is going on in here today?
People are excited with a win. I get it.Dan Villari won’t be out QB next season and we’re not running a triple option. What the hell is going on in here today?
