You can't be serious. So you're saying that Miles has such a complex offensive scheme that No one has been able to learn it in their first year(Mett included, who was sharp enough to pick up the starting job on an NFL team)

Its common knowledge that a prostyle offense is more complex than a spread offense . Thats why you see most high schools running the spread. Mett got the starting job because of injury.

OSU, who just won it all with a qb who got at most 1/4 the reps in practice this year has a simple system to pick up

Yes. Meyer's system is qb friendly. He has never had a qb that didnt produce at the college level. Also, Cordale was actually supposed to be the starter when Miller went down. He lost his job because of off the field attitude and not taking school work seriously.

quote:
If that is true, that would make whoever has final authority of our offense the absolute dumbest coach in the history of college football.

Right because a prostyle offense is just horrible. I swear posters on here act like our offense has always sucked under Miles.

The prostyle offense isn't horrible, but you must see that running an offense that is so complex and superior that you've never had a quarterback pick it up within 2 yrs is an absolutely insane approach to offense? You're telling me that our coach has chosen to have a shitty offense bc you've just listed "simple" systems that have brought teams to title games and NC's.

It's only insane when you start your quarterback inside those 2 years. The offensive system is not the issue... when executed correctly, it's virtually unstoppable and imposes itself on the defense whereas he spread is read-and-react by nature.

Quarterback development isn't the issue, either. Every QB has, during Miles's tenure, improved noticeably. Like at every other school, this reaches its peak during a prospect's third year.

The issue that people have is in QB recruiting... Which is a legitimate criticism. Missing on our No.1 targets in 2010 and 2012 hurt us BAD. However, it's not as if LA puts out the same level of talent at QB as every other position.

quote:
The following is a list of 5* QBs to come out of either Texas or Louisiana since Vince Young (2002) and the school they signed with:

tx-Rhett Bomar, ok
la-Ryan Perriloux, lsu
tx-Matthew Stafford, uga
tx-Ryan Mallett, mich
tx-Russell Shepard, lsu
tx-Garrett Gilbert, tx

There hasn't been one since 2009.

There just haven't been a lot of good QBs coming out of our traditional QB recruiting grounds in the past 5 years or so.

IMO we have got to stop recruiting dual threat qbs and making them do things they've never done in high school.

JJ had a decent 2nd year in 2009.
17tds-7 ints and 61% completion and a 137 qb rating ( which was higher than Flynn's qb rating in 2007).

5 national champ teams since 2007 have run a prostyle offense.
Miles didnt choose a shite offense. Our offense is fine when we have a qb that can execute it
