Sterlin Gilbert

[cuse10]

It's only one game, but lord, he did not have a good showing. If you've been posting in real-time on Twitter and search for him, USF fans are pitying SU for having him on the staff. One of the many tweets today, this from the USF beat writer:


Have fun reading the replies.

He needs to explain himself imo cause he changed nothing.

 

[Bayside44]

He's missing two RBs that are solid players. Jordan is a change of pace guy and Pierre isn't a player. Doesn't help our balance.

Which makes me wonder if dino has some serious control issues BC it’s the same exact crap from last year when there was a completely diff coordinator

 

[rocfan44]

Not impressed at all! Same ‘ol same ‘ol.

Idk what to think. we had one new play this year and that was it. no real end arounds or nothing. we just ran HB dive every run play and wonder why devito and Jordan have no where to go

 

[gmoney44]

I’m done blame the offensive coordinators. It’s obvious that Dino is controlling the offense. Zero has changed in the offense.

How would he have control issues? From who? Not from the A.D..

he means dino controls the scheme and not the OC

 

[Cusefan0307]

Looks like the same terrible play calling as last year. That was as pathetic of an offensive performance we have had since Dino has been here.

Why did y'all think he was going to change the scheme? This is the same scheme as when Lewis was at SU. This is probably the same scheme that Gilbert was running with Babers at EIU and Ball St.

I can see that now. Maybe. The two runs at the goal line were just so bad. it was at a time where we knew we couldn't run it in.

 

[McNabb2Brominski]

How many different types of plays can you call when the defense knows the only way you can beat them is thru the air?

 

[samspann1]

I was very leery of hiring a coach with a name which sounds like that of a NASCAR driver.

Him controlling the OC and play calling. I’m just thinking out loud

I expected some different plays. some end arounds, use more TE's. if our TE's can only be used to block then there is an issue. there needs to be more unique stuff. that Jordan running catch was good. bubble screens, good, we stopped using them. we dont need a inside run up the middle every first and 10

Ones that FORCE your QB to utilize more than 16.5% percent (short-mid right) of the field.

Is scheme not limited by personnel?

 

[sufandu]

Looks like the same oline to me. They were pushed backward. No play works when the oline throws it in reverse.

I think this is their inspiration.

 

[Cuse House]

Honestly, I am not a fan of the spread. We don’t have the talent to run it efficiently. All it does is cause quick 3 and outs and gas our defense. I’d rather put DeVito under center with our two tight ends out there.

I was told we shouldn’t throw because we can’t risk a turnover when we need points

One of the things that bothered me about Dino when it was a time when we all loved everything Dino. He said he was great at clock management when we all saw that he wasn't. And that worried me. It worried me because it made me wonder if Dino could see his faults and do something about them. I'm still wondering about that.

Who the heck said that?

it can be yes, but then do you not work around the limits. we saw a glimpse with the screens and the running to the line with jordan. if your limited in blocking why run up the middle every start of the drive. why only run to the outside 3 times in a game
