They played a ton of games last year, seems like they’re burned out. They almost missed out on top 4 the year after they won the league. It’s tough to stay at that high level every year.

That’s literally what Lax wrote

Well, right now the narrative is we don’t have enough talent on the offensive side. So if we score 52 that may show that there is talent and Rees just blew the Ohio State game. If we don’t score many points the argument is Rees just sucks. Either way the arguing will continue to just after the...

That’s fine. The part where you make a HC hiring based on a coordinator is nuts. Rees could leave this off-season and then you’re “stuck” with a guy you would have never hired in the 1st place. I’m glad they went with Freeman just seems crazy they would have gone a different direction based on...

Agree. That’s idiocy.

It comes down to, if you’re critical of Tommy without at least recognizing the limitations he’s working with, regarding OL play and playmakers at WR, then you’re not being completely fair. On the other side, if you’re blaming all the offensive issues on those position groups without...

I loved Tommy as a player and love the idea of him as the young offensive genius. I just don’t think he’s really done more than an average job so far, based on results. I do think he gets harped on more by some as a reaction to those who refuse to criticize him at all (or maybe the reaction...

Yeah, TB12 is TBD. It is pretty sad we’ve gotten one career start out of our ‘18, ‘19, ‘20, and ‘21 QB recruits. If Buchner develops to a high level than all is well. If not we’re years away from being able to win games like Saturday.

Agree. I’d throw the QB position in with the WR.

Yep. It’s fun to “argue” about Rees and the team but it’s a long season and a lot will change by the end. Here’s hoping TB12 progresses and we get a stud QB for the ‘23 class (maybe Carr?). I think Rees is capable of both. Whether it happens, we’ll see.

Not fighting at all, just found your take surprising. After all there’s been thousands of posts on here through the years arguing about how good/bad different coaches are at recruiting. Literally the first time I’ve heard someone take your stance.

Interesting. First time I’ve heard assistants aren’t responsible for recruiting.

Cool. So we can’t blame any recruiting problems on position coaches or coordinators. Point taken.

It’s crazy. This mindset would never happen with a DC.

We typically beat 90% of teams in CFB.

Good WRs like going to schools with good QBs.

I think we are just paying for poor QB and WR recruiting. We're just outgunned against the elite teams on the offensive side. Same problem we've had for the past 10 years (except 2015).

I like the “young QB” excuse as if he wasn’t the guy in charge of recruiting the position the last 5 years.

For me, I’m basing Tommy’s performance on how well his hand picked QB (TB12) develops this year and how well he recruits the QB position for ‘23. Neither look great at the moment but they are still TBD.

Yep, forgot he left already.
