Glad it’s over. Excited at the prospect of a different looking offense (and defense for that matter). Results are the only thing that matter now.

He didn't regress.....he had way less attempts, man. Completion percentage, Y/A, and rating nearly identical. The big difference is attempts because he plays in three fewer games.
I mean he is not gatass so I like it
I know one thing. I'd much rather take my chances with Dawson than have Mike Bobo.

His running game has been largely average to horrendous in his career. I guess the Mario brofence jokes can stop.
Just remember, Houston had Bubba Baxa kicking field goals last year. That must have taken at least 21 points off their total.
Oh i agree.
Thanks for the information bro. I want all the insights from Cougar fans. Side note i went to Grambling and ran at UH at TSU many times, indoors mostly at UH, but FR year SWAC champs was also at UH outdoor. I love Houston boi, them texas mamasitas. Everywhere.

Seems to me like they threw the ball a lot less and in 3 less games
We absolutely could have done better, especially considering we could have gotten this guy in December.
Anyone saying otherwise is just in denial. Let’s see what he does *shrugs*
Imagine this place if we had hired Ruggiero? That 24 place drop would be all anyone would talk about.
Would that make us right? This isn't binary, there are very few guaranteed hires. We all laughed at Mike and FSU last off-season knowing we were about to smash them. Using fanss' judgement and reactions are a fools errand.

I like the fact Mario is hiring somebody not committed to Big Ten smash mouth football. My 1 concern with Dawson is will it be a gimmicky offense where it’s starts off prolific until competent DCs figure it out and he then lacks the capacity to adjust?
That was the problem with Lispy’s D. He started off terrorizing Os but when OCs adjusted to his schemes he was lost. I’m not saying Dawson is Lispy but that is a big concern for me with this hire.

Oh so you know the vibes!! Man we used to walk across the street to TSU and sit in that cafe like we went to school there.
I still laugh at G5 Mike because he sucks. 1 season where they didn’t beat anyone respectable doesn’t change that lol

I wholeheartedly agree. Of course I've already gotten Face-Palms, which in reality they can Face Palm my C*ck.
Air read is simple to learn and run so that bodes well w the condensed time line.
I have no idea if he is going to be good or not, but that was also 8 years ago and he has been several places since. Regardless of factors outside of his control that may or may not have factored in, I think it is fair to say that he may have evolved/improved in that time and more weight should be put on recent results.
Out of Mario's comfort zone and into a space he hasn't gone before, that's a plus. An offense that fits our local recruiting base, that sounds fine by me. Thankfully it wasn't what most of us expected of a Mario OC hire. Let's see what he's got.
