re: Will Miles ever change his philosophy?

We didn't seem to shy away from throwing the ball when we had Flynn and Russell. For the last four years, we didn't have anybody Miles felt he could trust not to lose the game when we put it in the air. Of course, that still goes back to recruiting.

I have no problem at all with the run first philosophy; in fact, I prefer it. But if we can't hurt people throwing the ball, we'll see more games like Monday's game when we're facing the elite teams.

Monday was such a putrid offensive performance I was hoping they would just send a receiver down the field and tell one of the QB's to throw it as far as he could. Even that would have given us a better chance than anything we did. That type of thing just can't happen any more.
