re: Would Coach O have had half of his support if we knew he wanted Dual Threat QBs?

What's your point? The discussion is about what Coach O wants as a QB recruit and all of those guys are still in high school.

The difference is Les wanted a dual threat qb to run a pro style offense. That isn't what O is trying to do.





O lied to us.


But I'll list the dt qbs that started for Les. Ryan Perrilloux and Brandon Harris.

That's it.

That is what ed said.

Those words came out of his mouth.

On the other hand, Les never once stated he was changing the offense. Not publicly at least.

O can't make up his mind, and like I thought, has fed the fans and media bullshite because he was lobbying for the Job.

You are an idiot. Guice would kick arse out of the spread.

He just told the ppl he wanted a white qb so the trumpkins would want him. Politics 101.

I would have been very lukewarm on him if that was the case. The reason a lot of people were excited to run the last coach out of town was because we were finally using a QB to throw the ball and showing different wrinkles on offense.
Well, to be fair, even as a guy who prefers a pure passer with decent mobility.......it isn't like all dual threat QBs can't throw or aren't asked to.

Miles had the worst of both worlds. He recruited Duals and then basically asked them to be pro-style.

OP, are you saying you wouldn't be interested in the next Tebow, Cam, or Charlie Ward?

He's made it clear he wants to run a pro-style but with a QB that has the ability to run

most people consider Bama and Fla st to run pro style, yet a lot of times they recruit QB's who can also run. I think coach O views it the same way SaBEN And Jimbo view it. They and he, just want a good QB that they feel they can win with.

I was in favor of the O hiring but I cringed when he mentioned the dual threat QB at the presser in such absolute terms. I thought of Brennan. I was hoping to ease into the spread, or run some kind of hybrid for a while.

A) All 3 could throw.
B) Those are incredibly rare talents who you can't build a system around because they are so rare. You rework the system after they step foot in a classroom.

What the hell do yall want.

Most spread offenses are run by dual threat qbs.

The majority on the board have been clamoring for a spread offense. So O goes and starts trying to recruit qbs that typically run the spread and now yall still bitch
No. The majority wanted a pass first QB. The spread could work for either type of QB.

You are right, spread does not mean dual. Look at Oklahoma.






But he said dual

Guice is our running back next year. We have very capable backs behind him. I hope we get many more in the future. Let them do the running!!!


Sorry, but I went from solidly pro-O to someone who is deeply concerned about next year.


Which I had more down votes. You're obviously content with dominating Mizzou, A&M, and mcneese every year, while struggling against better competition. Come out of the twighlight zone. It's 2017, not 1917.
