Why N'Kosi Perry will be Starting QB

[ThomasM]

I said I didn't want to hear it, not that you didn't have the right to. You can cry your eyes out for all I care, and you probably will.

Let me simplify this for you. Nobody in life should be above constructive criticism. I consider people who blindly follow something without asking questions to be ignorant. Mark Richt was a below average play caller at times last year, we can do better than BB at punt returner, and we should have landed Chris Henderson last year. These are debatable and should be constructively criticized. Lastly, THIS IS THE PLACE TO OFFER YOUR CRITICISM ABOUT THOSE TOPICS. Whining about others using this forum to criticize and whine makes you look uneducated.

I'm done.

I agree. Too many in here that can't handle the Truth about Richt.

I wasn't talking about Richt. Coaching staffs are grown men earning a pay check and deserve to be held accountable. I don't want people bashing Perry before he has time to develop, if it takes time to develop.

Jeez, how did this thread turn into something other than Perry?

Uhh... so stupid. I said I wouldn't but they dragged me in...

So overall, Mark Richt, in his first season calling plays in 10 years managed to improve the offense in most statistical categories. Was Mark Richt a perfect play caller (or even a great play caller) last season? No. Were there occasional head-scratching calls on offense last season? Yes. Were we mostly a middle of the pack offense last year? Yes. But is Mark Richt a "poor play caller?" The evidence from last season seems to suggest he is not.

And as an afterthought, to [MENTION=9406]hesskilla[/MENTION], not all criticism (even honest criticism) is constructive. Constructive criticism generally includes tips and suggestions for improvement. For example, "hey [MENTION=17246]Ice Cube[/MENTION], people might not think you were being an obnoxious troll if you included more support for your arguments. Maybe if you included specific examples of perceived instances of CMR's poor play calling or offensive statistics from last season to support your argument, you'd get a better response and people wouldn't think you lived under a bridge in Switzerland."

So while I agree with you that nobody is above constructive criticism, I don't think any of the above criticisms of CMR or the players addressed can be considered "constructive." And most of it can't even be fairly considered supported or well-reasoned.

Those stats do not tell the Entire Story, Smart Guy. We were coached by Phucking Al Golden in 2015. Richt was supposed to be better. Yet, the difference in 2016 was only marginal as whole. Kaaya looked like he took a step back in 2016. BK never looked comfortable...although he had good stats. Why?

1. Richt was better (than James Coley, FYI, the offensive coordinator calling the plays in 2015). That is indisputable.

2. Other than wins and losses, no stats tell the entire story, tough guy. But I came with some factual support for my argument, instead of just my limp d1ck in my hand. Evolve or GTFO.

3. Brad never looked comfortable because, despite his intelligence and arm talent, he is an immobile statue of a QB with issues below the waste and our offensive line did a below average job of protecting him most of the year, which clearly got to Brad at times. For better or worse, he is the precise type of QB college football (and coaches like CMR) has moved away from.

You have not proved anything. Again, we were marginally better as a whole in 2016. As Franchise said, I take no pleasure in our head coach being marginally better than Georgia's wide receivers coach.

We're talking proof now? Got it. Let me know when you "prove" CMR is a "poor" play caller (you know, with any sort of factual support whatsoever).

And as far you and your displeasure in CMR, that does not surprise me. Guys like you only take pleasure in living under bridges, devouring wandering sheep, stealing away children, and, of course, collecting tolls...

OCTOBER 2016......There is your proof. Inside of Florida State's 30 with a chance to go up 17-0. Three straight runs, including a Brain Dead third-down run after a freeking time out. What else do you need?

 

[BigJoeGrizzly]

You don't have to be a dual threat to be a successful QB. You need good pocket presence which involves good foot work and making something happen when a play breaks down.

Kaaya has no pocket presence zero! He would often fall down no one touched him instead of stepping up in the pocket and making throws.

I think the mobility factor is a bit overrated even though the dual threat QB passing and running is the trend today. Deshawn Watson did both well but if thinks he is going to run in The NFL like he did at Clemson he will have no head by week 2...

I agree....the mobility factor is overrated. Good coaches will choose an accurate pocket passer over a mobile QB any day of the week. These coaches put their Pocket passer in the best position to Succeed. Plus, there comes a time when Mobility can be taken away and the QB has to make throws. We saw that last year with Lamar Jackson later in the season. For example, LSU said, "you are going to have to beat us with your Arm" and LJ failed miserably!

Richt didn't call three straight runs. The QB read run as part of the RPO but that doesn't mean the read was right. FSU likes to disguise coverage and it took Kaaya most of the year to figure out the RPO reads.

 

[ZBHCane]

Holy smokes that video was depressing. Bro, do you not have anything else to do with your time??????

 

[ChosenOne]

Offensive Line was ASSS. Listen, I'm a Dolphins fans and over the past 5 years /w Tannehill I come to learn just how much an below average offensive line can regress your QB and offense as a whole. We couldn't get any push on the offensive line on run plays against athletic DL then you must take into consideration that it was Kaaya's first year in the offense that didn't even suit his playing style BTW. Then on top of that, Richt hadn't called plays in 10 years. Not only that but these were new players for Richt and we still got better at putting points on the board. Can someone please tell me why people are acting like we lit the world on fire in '14, '15?

Can we please actually wait for Richt to recruit his players that fit his offense before we judge?

I disagree. Those 3 run plays were called by MR. The Month of October proves it. Plus, 3rd and mid to Long is not a Traditional RPO read, at least it should not be. You have to get the first down. Richt settled for FG. He did the exact same thing against Duke (inside their 20).

Like Gruden said, "Kaaya had no business in a RPO system" because it did not fit his skill-set.

 

[Ice Cube]

What does that mean? It did not really matter what players we had...as a play-caller in 2016, MR sucked ***. His inability to structure an offense around Kaaya's skillset proved that he lacked innovation and play-calling talent. Basically, a 1 Trick Pony. Richt not calling plays in 10 years is irrelevant. Richt was not in a situation where his OC just up and left him high and dry. Richt chose to call plays and that decision hurt the team.

 

[DerekDohrman]

perry is definitely not a dual threat QB

 

[786Cane]

I think Rosier has the nod to start. Perry needs to add muscle/weight before the season starts, he's not built to take on NCAA hits at this point.

Perry should probably be Redshirted so he can put on some size, strength and knowledge of the system like Allison last year; but with hopefully better results. I'd start Rosier or Shirreffs and if they lay an egg, I'd give Cade Weldon a shot. Kid's got pedigree, size, a gun for an arm and is also mobile. He actually had more running yards than Perry last year. Don't know why everyone is bypassing him for Kosi? Next year should be fun with Sits in the mix also.

If Perry starts this year, Sits is good as gone.

That would be ok with me, we don't need anyone who's afraid to win his starting position.

I'm not sure about that. If Perry is good as we are hyping him up, he would be gone after 3 years. RS Stik and by his sophomore year, he would have a chance to start. We shall see.

just got off the phone with major 9 mane... I said you rocking my lil homie Sam Shields number mane... Anyway I was like who is throwing that rock around this season, I almost ****ted when he told me Perry is that *****...

It's more than that. Competition is just one factor when choosing a school.
