Any hint from where?

James Foster from Texas A&M will be one of them.

[Atlanta VOL]

Thanks. Do you expect the team to show something positive in these final four games (regardless of wins and losses but at least show some improvement)?

I am hoping a youth movement lights a spark>>>?

I sure hope so...good grief.
As it relates to the younger guys...they are super talented..but I will say this...they have a LONG way to go in regards to the playbook. Half of them have no idea what routes to run or what the check downs are and that is why you haven’t seen them used yet. Wideman for sure has the tools but just isn’t up to speed yet on the playbook and how to really play the position. Hyatt same way...great talent but playbook has been a big struggle for him.

I’ll guess Hilinski or the other highly ranked QB they just got.

Why is our offense so bad rn
You think it has to do a lot with Chaney?

That’s pretty concerning considering we’re two months into the season with two bye weeks built in.

they’ve been enrolled since january and still don’t know the playbook?

Well whose fault is that? Interesting that freshmen on other teams aren’t having this problem

 

[Blake25p]

Man they really don’t like Bailey do they...

Care to respond? @Atlanta VOL

 

[snowvols]

That’s pretty concerning considering we’re tow months into the season with tow bye weeks built in.

Our coaches are garbage and can't get kids prepared. Everyone else are playing tons of FR. Half the kids on the field for Clemson by the end of the ND game were FR and they were going toe to toe with them the whole 4th qtr and two OTs.

We are not dealing with the sharpest tools in the shed. And the playbook is massive...I can assure you it is not that easy to digest.

Thats terrible coaching

 

[HoleInTheRoof]

I’ll guess Hilinski or the other highly ranked QB they just got.

Hillinski I doubt just because his family literally moved from California to South Carolina with Ryan and they’ve been all in on uscjr. Uscjr has gone out of its way to support their suicide awareness cause/charity whatever. I kind of think they just may be fully entrenched in the community.

not sure about the other ones but isn’t Doty from that area and idk if we even offered him coming out of school.

 

[Atlanta VOL]

Care to respond? @Atlanta VOL

I wouldn’t say they don’t like him...they do like him. But he isn’t the savior at this moment that he was cracked up to be. Could he develop into that stud qb that people thought he would be coming out of HS...YES....

 

[Atlanta VOL]

I agree coaching is for sure a big part of that....and yes that falls directly on TM

Yikes. So it's on the coaches for not dumbing it down? Surely they could simplify it

Play him an find out, who know maybe he’s a gamer (I know the staff doesn’t believe in that).

They just need to let him sling it. His FR year Marietta started like 14 or 15 FR and 3 SO's and he threw for 2800 yards and 21tds and only 7 ints. He was 14 playing 18 year old kids , a big % of which went on the college football. His WRs were SO in Keyton that led the state in recieving and a FR Taji Johnson that ended up at Boston College.

He'll be fine if they just let him get out there ans throw the ball.

We ended up 3-7 that year, but those 10 games were huge for the FR players growth.

Any speculation on which coaches won't be returning next year? And do you expect this recruiting class to stick together, other than a couple being encouraged to look elsewhere?

 

[RikidyBones]

Correct

What are you doing in Jacksonville, FL? Thats obviously where you'd pick to go. Which Applebee's are we meeting at? I'll buy you a water.

 

[Devo182]

It's the money. It's not about beating Vandy. It's not wanting to pay the buyout.

The buyout will be there next year too

Then they need to simplify the D**n playbook.

Think it drops a few million.

 

[HoleInTheRoof]

Then they need to simplify the D**n playbook.

It’s so confusing because the offense already looks bland and predictable. How much simpler could they make it?

Mike Leach playbook fits on a postage stamp, surely we can find some middle ground.

Appreciate the info man, but this is the most I’ve seen you open up and answer questions. We sure this is actually AV, and his account didn’t get hacked?
