Pete, no offense, but how is anything gravy when our skill position recruiting has sucked? The WR position went from a strength to a viable ?mark. With the uncertainty at QB next year, not having killers on the outside and slot can spell disaster next year.
Our play calling didn't take advantage of what we had this past year.
We were a wannabe SEC power running team. Emphasis on wannabe.
You gotta start somewhere. We'll be better at it next season and the season after. If you sacrifice a year to please whomever then you're behind 1 year in implementing your system. Run right; run left; go long. That's Miami ball.
That's now what we did.
Up the middle - stopped, up the middle - stopped, run right - stopped. Half the play sequences.
Or, Up the Middle - stopped, holding penalty, run right - stopped, third and fifteen - wide screen incomplete. A quarter of the play sequences.
Nix Part II.
Interesting, considering Kaaya threw the ball 387 times which surpassed the number of rushing attempts by all the running backs combined by 38.
Yes, we did throw. Telegraphed them right and left. Waited until games were in trouble and had to pass, or run - nothing, run-nothing, pass - short of first down because they were coming after him. Recall all the times Kaaya being swarmed by blitzes because it was so obvious?
You don't recall October?
