I feel like a lot of these new guys don't even know the game of football. These aren't the same athletes he has at his disposal here in Miami. Just watch and see.
I agree, but that is not enough. I try to like MR. He makes it difficult at times to like him. I think he "could" be a great Program Manager. The only thing that will stop MR from being a NC winning Coach is MR. EVERYTHING he does has to be in the best interests of the program. He is slipping in this area.
Can you elaborate a little more?
Worst decision MR made was his decision to call plays. The elite coaches do not make that mistake. B.Kaaya, if not anything else, was an accurate Pocket Passer. MR totally misused BK with his RPO trash and his non-rhythmic play calling. Not saying the RPO is trash...just MR's version. A Competent Play-calling OC would have put Brad in better position to succeed. A Competent Play-calling OC would have been more adept with making necessary adjustments, which includes protections packages. A Competent Play-calling OC would have murdered teams with Njoku seam routes. A Competent Play-calling OC would would have murdered teams with Berrios in the slot. A Competent Play-calling OC would face criticism for poor game management.
I don't trust MR with Perry. Perry may be talented, but he needs Competent Caching...not some hack trying to relive his glory days.
The O-line sucked.
I'd love to see what "A Competent Play-calling OC" in your estimation would have done with that same unit.. I'm sure it involves shotgun and max protection, which Richt ultimately did.
I think he went into each game and tried to have his kids compete before showing them he had no trust in their ability. Bottom line is he sacrificed a year to install his system, because if you cater to Kaaya in year 1 that simply puts the entire unit a year behind. Kids know the plays, blocking schemes and disposition necessary to play Richt's style of football, which is something we can continue to build on this season.
We're a better team now and closer to a championship because of all that.
Which offensive line are you talking about? Are you talking about the one MR chose to use that could not provide adequate protection? Because he used that offensive line unit for eight games. Or, are you talking about the OL unit they were FORCED to use after injuries that provided adequate protection?
Take your time and think about that. While you are at it, think about this: The last four games of the season we faced our best opposing defensive lines and our offensive line performed very well. Why do you think that happened? I'll tell you why it happened. Very Poor player evaluations by Mark richt and staff.
Again, Mark richt could be a very good program manager. However, he is hurting the program by choosing to call plays when he is not the most qualified at this point. In addition, he needs to seriously consider hiring an elite O line coach if the O line struggles again this year.
