Would you give up Coach O for a Quarterback?

I would. Let me explain why...

With all the excitement with Steele and Orgeron people seem to have forgotten....we still don't have a quarterback.

Defense and recruiting isn't going to mean shite next year if the offense is the same run, run, pass, punt offense that we had this year. I would be willing to give up a few spots on defensive ranking in return for a good quarterback.

As much as defense is important, college football and yes, even the SEC is changing. With all the spread offenses out there, even the best defenses are inevitably going to get scored on so you have to have a good offense to counter and keep up. The 2 teams that played for the CFP title - OSU and Oregon were ranked 19th and 87th respectively in total defense but 9th and 3rd in total offense. OSU Got by Bama because of a great Offense - one that put up 537 yards on the Bama defense. Throughout the season there have been plenty of smaller schools that moved the ball and put up points on top tier defenses.

Times are a changing folks.....we're moving into an era when people will say "Offense wins championships"

Probably not. Defense can still win championships. OSU has a very good defense; it wasn't just their offense. Coach O is going to bring in some great defenders. Football is won in the trenches, and hopefully he will fix our Defensive trenches. Our dline has been average or less for awhile.

Not reading that...

Simple answer is HELL NO

The Org will just recruit 5 star bullies to stack the line and bulldoze opposing teams in the trenches.

No QB needed.

It is sad, some people enjoy being miserable. You saw people being excited here and you were looking for something negative to point out? Some people have amazing life.

It is not the quarterback. It is the offense. Drew Brees would suck in this offense. As would Peyton and Brady.

No... Coach O will likely pull in a number of top notch QB's over the next few years.

Give a man a fish and he'll eat for a day, but teach a man to fish and he'll eat for a lifetime.

Not only that, but Orgeron is persuasive enough that he might cut down on juniors going into the draft early.
