That’s fine and dandy.
Here’s what’s not:
Heupel is known for spread it out , big play offense, He’s not been able to have that for 2 years because the OL is terrible at pass blocking!!

Penalties: way too many self inflicted penalties.

Like Paul Harvey said.

The rest of the story.

And the side receivers don't get separation and have average hands and we have had either a QB that can't read a defense or a freshman QB still learning the ropes.
If you're going to tell "the rest of the story", tell all of it.

If the 40,000 people who signed the petition to fire Cuonzo Martin signed up for monthly donations of $25 to the Volunteer Club, they'd be donating $12M/year. 90% of that goes to athletes, so $10.8M to NIL.

I feel like many don’t understand or trust the power of numbers. Maybe they incorrectly think their small donation won’t matter

The reason for not closing the top tier players at the other positions may be due in part to us not spending enough up front. Which poses a different set of questions and problems. We've missed out on several of the top defensive lineman in the past classes as well. We're getting out-offered and out-spent. That's the bottom line. It's not a problem if CJH can maneuver around it. But at present it's a real issue.

Yeah, last years DL sure was out manned all season. This year can’t be as deep, but not falling off the face of the earth. I will allocate my emotional weakness in other rooms.

The student athletes might be some of the wealthiest people who support the Volunteers. Maybe they should donate to Spyre.

Well the original discussion was Elerby and the O line, so I did.
You’re just adding stuff distantly related
Like a 3rd cousin that nobody had ever met.

No the 2024 OL is better at pass blocking than the 2022 OL. It's the "distantly related" stuff that is mostly responsible for the offense not being as good.

I am completely going to disagree. I watched the games.
2024 was mostly terrible at pass blocking when we played a team with a pulse.
Injuries and lack of depth were a big factor.

Stats on paper are completely irrelevant unless the 2 were playing the exact teams with the exact players.

It was in JUDGING Elarbee and the OL, and passing O was the metric used to judge them. If you're going to use a metric, it's only fair to use those things that oth help and harm your judgment.

You're basically saying, "X is guilty of murder, and I have the murder weapon!"

"Well, other peoples' fingerprints are all over that murder weapon."

"I know. We were just discussing that X is guilty. No need to muddy the discussion with all those other fingerprints."

No it was pass blocking, the metric used to judge them.


They could block for 8 seconds every pass play and allow 0 QB pressures and the receivers could drop 50% of passes and the QB could miss open Receivers 50% of the time and the passing O would still be terrible.
That would no make the O line terrible so why use it to judge them??

So no it wasnt the Pass offense for the metric, it was Elerby, the O line and sub par PASS BLOCKING by the O LINE.
