re: Give (a little) credit where it’s due, the play calling got better…

He just never seemed to understand how to utilize the talent available to him. His red-zone offense alone is grounds for going another direction, imo.

The truth about play calling is you can't actually judge playcalling unless you have the all 22, know the plays and know the players assignments. The rants breakdown of playcalling is ..... did the play get decent yards= good playcalling Did the play not get adequate yards= bad play calling.
You are getting a bunch of downvotes, but this is the truth. It doesn’t absolve Sloan of his mistakes and issues, but it’s true that players not executing can make the perfect play call look like shite.

It only takes one player missing an assignment to frick up the best play called but our fan base is littered with football ignorant fans that couldn't tell you the numbers on the route tree or where the techniques line up on the dline without Google.
Most of the posters here can't get simple information correct yet try to judge something as intricate as playcalling.
It's a riot.

A marginal running game improved the play calling.
The biggest issues with this offense have been the lack of a consistent running game and the lack of a deep ball threat and explosive plays. That makes us so much easier to defend and playcalling can only do so much to work around those issues.
Better running has helped, even though we’re just getting back to average numbers on the ground now. It’s still an improvement. The deep balls last night helped too. Those make the Safeties pay attention and open up space.

You people think every loss means we got outcoached.

Except even the rant can recognize improvement from calling a run up the middle EVERY second and ten, making NO attempt to run it to the edge, never calling a screen, not calling quick throws when your interior line can't pass block, etc.

No they can't because the Rant doesn't know what was actually called.

Because I named a specific fricking game. He was outcoached. He ABSOLUTELY had the better talent and team. He fricked it up at every turn, including being overconfident and saying we'd win, even in interviews.
His position resonates with the team and it showed.
His defensive hire and the scheme is a tragedy. If he retains that DC, then he should be fired next year.
They are in over their head
And now, he's talking about keeping receipts? LOL. Why would he need them, every single criticism has been well earned by him. Again, he acts like he did nothing to receive those criticisms

You're just a miserable person who doesn't understand he was joking around.

Among many other good points already made in this thread, I'll add:
Nuss has to run more. Designed runs. Ad hoc runs. He has to keep it on option plays sometimes.
The defense completely ignores his threat to run, and if he runs once or twice a game, that's a trade off they're willing to make to stop the other plays.

Eh.
I do however give Garrett a ton of credit for coming back after what looked like an injury that knocked him out of the game and playing the way he did. I don't see him being one to fake an injury like that.

Not every loss, but there are some. USC was a 6-6 team. UF 7-5. I'd like to think a HC with 33 years of experience coming into '24 could make a difference against a more talented team.

It doesn’t take a football guru to figure it out when it’s run right up the middle every 2nd down man lol

Nah man. They don't get a dollar from me anymore.
BK is the miserable prick. He is known as hands off and he runs around chasing coeds. But he's hands ON when it's time to explain his trams shortcomings and blaming others.
Screaming is no longer an effective motivation tool for old parts like him.
FYI, ND is top 4, and the SEC school he came to isn't top 20. Weird how that happens, huh?
Yeah. But guys like you think he's gonna get better.
Hes a fraud and the kids don't like him. And bow he's losing.

Part of a good play call is calling a play you know the players can execute. If execution is the issue then the coaches either need to coach better during the week or call plays they’re confident players can execute.

I think just the scrambles on covered pass plays is the most important. Linebackers drop wayyy back in coverage on us.

I mean it only took until the final game of the year to change some things up...

Good teams, good coaching does not come around on the last game of the season - especially with the talent this team has.
This is Lout Tepper type nonsense. Use your talent to the best of their abilities not your overthinking brain. Quit out coaching yourself.
BK's inability to have this team focused and ready is concerning - like Miles and clock management. He better figure out coordinators and game 1 for next season.
They basically had to almost kill Nuss before they got their head's out of their @sses.

No thanks, Sloan has to go.
