Anyone hear anything about what type of offensive changes will be made?

I'm hoping that Miles will scale back his control over the offense. We have excellent rbs. The OL will continue to get better because they have recruited some bigger, more athletic OL. WRs are a big question mark. Playcalling improved a lot in 2011, but really tailed off in the last 3 games.

It will be called:

"Let's get the ball to their 45 yard line this game"

I think you mean last 2, we did well against Arky.

actually, last 1. playcalling wasn't bad against UGA, 1st half execution was

All of our RB are transferring. Miles said we will throw the ball every single down. No run game. Hail Mary's on 3rd and 4th downs every time.

I predict everyone will see the same offensive system in the spring game.

Then everybody will come on here and say, "well Les doesn't want to show his hand before a real game"

"we have a secret playbook"

Then when the season rolls around, we see the same shite. Then everyone is going to say, "well, he is saving it for Bama".

Then when Bama rolls around and we see the same offense, everybody is going to be questioning the PC all game.

Short story: Offense isn't going to change much with Les. We might sling the rock a little more but it will be a run first, power game philosophy. I'll put money on it.

i am so sick of reading this shite. For fricks-sake, none of you have any idea what youre talking about! We will punt on first down this year and let our defense win games.

I'll put money on it too.....considering we've pretty much had that offensive philosophy since i've been alive.

Les Miles has a V12 under the hood with this roster. Just open the throttle and let them go.

Lol

I think it will be the same thing we saw with Lee this year. Add in a few more deep passes per game and that will be out 2012 offense folks, which is fine by me. Some people quickly forget how refreshing that offense was the first 8 games. I had no problem with it. We were executing with good playcalling. We were throwing on 3rd and short. How many times have you seen that the past couple years?

It was more about awful qb play than play calling by the coaches. You people are gonna be shocked at how good a normal semi-productive collegiate offense looks later this year

I can't recall the thread or recruit, but there was a comment on the recruiting board from a recruit who said he liked the fact we were moving to a spread offense... I think it may have been Cordarelle Patterson?

Yea I know, link or GTFO.
