Doesn't seem to be a problem for Alabama or LSU or UF or FSU. The run sets up the pass it is not the other way around unless you are outmatched physically on the o-line.
In most games this season we had the advantage at the LOS. Only against ND and FSU were we outmatched at the point of attack. I think we had the horses to run on KST but you could count them too if you want
I'm not a huge proponent of Cristobal as OC but I liked the way his FIU teams played. I am hugely for hiring a guy that has a run first mentality and runs a prostyle offense.
No spread, no oopdy scoop crap. I will always maintain that for Miami to get back to winning championships we will have to get away from throwing it 40 times a game.
I read through about the first 8 pages. As down as I feel about Fisch leaving, I'm not concerned about Ol' Al finding another humdinger. The dude is deep in some network of personnel I can't imagine. If anything I'm excited to see if he can do even better with this next hire.
If the recruits don't flee, and current players aren't too broke up, I can see even better things happening next season.

Sir you couldn't be more wrong, you do run the ball just for the sake of running it. If you ever get the chance to spend ten seconds around a credible coach ask him that very question. Do you run the ball just for the sake of running it? Meanwhile Mike James bulls his way inside the ten in the NFLPA game receiving rave reviews.

If you have a good passing game, the running game will set that up for you. If the defense is playing the run because you are running well, then the right call is to throw the ball and make them stop you. As we saw in multiple games this year, we were running the ball well, and as a result were able to throw the ball downfield and make good things happen, like score quickly. Also the reason why we were able to house a couple a long runs is because the defense was playing the pass and we were able to take advantage of it. You dont just run the ball for the sake of running the ball. A good OC is a guy who can call plays based on what the defense is going to give him to play against.Kn[]_[]ckles3o5;1280668 said:
GT and Air Force run the ball for the sake of running the ball, remind me again how much success they have had over the years? They are 6 or 7 win teams. Thats what happens when you run just for the sake of running the ball.
Why has Peyton Manning been so successful? Hes able to audible based on what the defense is giving him. Any good OC will do the same thing. With the offense we have, we can strike through the air just as easily as we can on the ground, thats a good problem to have. So when the defense is playing you to run the ball, you throw it and score quickly and cover 70 yards. I dont see how thats a problem. 3rd and 3 and the defense thinks you are running, a screen or play action is a good play. The problem is that if it doesnt work, most fans who cant see past the result of the play, think its a bad play and think the coach is incompetent.Kn[]_[]ckles3o5;1280692 said:

When you missfire and go 3 and out when you needed to burn some clock, that's the problem. Or when you are running effectively but rather than really suck the defense in you get an itchy trigger finger and kill the momentum of a drive by not sticking with the run. What makes it worse is the fact that you were able to run even if they put 8 in the box.
I'm never mad about second and ten from a run play but I m furious when we throw on first down and it goes incomplete. Two three times a game not a problem, we do need to keep em guessin a bit. Fisch on the other threw more on 1st down then he ran and IMHO that is stupid and the talent was the main reason his mistakes weren't exposed.
Would pick this porst apart but i ingested a copious amount of cocaine last night and just don't have the energy.

Hey Knuckles, how ya like them apples?
Fisch is a great fit for NFL OC. This occurred to me earlier today. Probably even a better fit than college.
And the Giants finished last in the NFL in rushing might I add

Do you watch football or just look at stats.
Cristobal had FIU running the exact offense you dont want. They went and hired the NH OC to run chip style hurryup spread, lol... Tooo funny. You never watched one minute of FIU ball huh? You probably never even watched a Canes game either, just read stats on espn. The EXACT offense you dont want is what Cristobal ran, EXACT. LMAO. You cant make this stuff up.
Plus one. Fisch was good but there are better oc's out there.Kn[]_[]ckles3o5;1280526 said:
Fisch had his positives and a few negatives. I always lean toward keeping a guy if he's doing good just for consistency but it is what it is.
I maintain confidence in Al Golden to dip into his binders full of OC's and upgrade. Like a Boss.
