Consistent offensive style

2

Sep 5, 2024, 11:17 AM

Can anyone that maybe has some sources within the program explain how the offense has been the same under 3 separate offensive coordinators and two QBs now? We completely lack any horizontal route schemes. We don’t attack the middle of the field. We have no misdirection or receiver pre snap motion. We continue to attempt to utilize receiver screens in the flat.

I don’t understand how this can continue under multiple coordinators. Some would assume maybe input from the head coach but I struggle to believe that. None of it makes sense.

Based on what your saying, there are 2 things that have been consistent. The offense has been hot garbage. The head coach has remained the same. At some point we have to start believing that he has more input then what is being shared. I don't believe we have a QB capable of doing anything more than what he is incapable of doing now. The game hasn't slowed down at all for him which is terrifying.

Huge misses at RB, WR, QB.

Huge misses at OC, RB, WR, OL coaches.

I can agree we’ve missed at QB, probably on a few WR. But we haven’t missed on RB in my opinion. And Tyler Brown and Antonio Williams seem high quality. Supposedly TJ Moore has impressed and Wesco is highly ranked and unknown so far. OL did looked improved last week with Luke here.

Given this, for me it’s less about personnel and more about the general play calling and scheme of what we do that seems so unchanged and lackluster for 4 years now. Watch TCU offense under Riley then watch Clemson. Was Riley just getting benefit of Sonny Dykes football mind?

Hard to miss on RBs that weren't highly thought of to begin with.

RB recruiting has been horrible for a few years.

I have said this a few times today. This IS STILL the same base offense Morris installed in 2011. He would tweak it and add to it though. It's time to seriously commit to the air raid and Riley or move on and install a new base offense. You can not keep running an offense that relies solely on 50/50 balls to push the ball downfield. LSU exposed this scheme, take away the sidelines and let your lbs play freely in the middle bc there's no regard for protecting the middle of the field, this puts alot of stress on the OL and allows teams to blitz freely or aggressively play the flats with their will and sam lbs.

Agree, offense needs to fit your talent. There is no T, Mike Williams to win the 50/50 ball and Travis E just needed in bit of daylight.

Also, as I stated in another post QB play had been so bad it cannot offset the loss of talent elsehwere.

I think QB play is a direct result of playing right into the hands of defenses. More teams can matchup with Clemson 1v1 than ever and that puts ALOT of pressure on a QB to be perfect on every throw, that's just not realistic to expect. The air raid is suppose to be simple and qb friendly, having to throw perfectly placed balls into tight coverage every time you need to get a chunk of yards is not a way to make a living, especially when parity in talent is tight across the board.

And we still haven't yet had any of the media

really ask this and hold Dabo to answer it. It's usually questions like "Do you expect more explosive plays this season?"


I would love for someone to just flat out ask why the offensive scheme seems to be the same the last 3 years with no infusion of creativity.
