I don’t think it’s really a controversy, I think it’s a philosophy. We may line up in some modern formations but at the heart of it Willis is an old school, power run game football coach which requires Crosby to dominate the offensive line of scrimmage . . . which we can’t. In a standard 60-play game he probably wants to run it about 40+ times if we’re being effective so there are carries to go around. Running backs want the ball from the running back position. Not lined up in the slot and having it thrown to them, having to motion pre-snap or sprint post-snap to get it. Crosby does run some two back sets but the vast majority of the time the RB that gets the ball from the traditional RB position is called the B-back in our offense. Last year and this year alike Crosby had a RB that could average more yards from the traditional position than the player who will get the overwhelming majority of the carries there. If the play-calling philosophy relies on us leaning heavily on the B-back position then why not give a more equal share of the carries at that traditional position to players who can help make that play-calling more efficient? Josh Jackson has Austin Walter-like ability but teams won’t have to deal with it much because he’ll be lined up in the slot at A-back. Just a different approach than what we saw from the last two coaches. Quote

That is definitely my “metric”. It is the reason everyone plays and it determines which team is the best in each division every year. Lol. Quote
Socrates Posted August 30 Report Posted August 30 He may have a statue at CP, but the Broncos have probably had this one circled since the schedule was put out. He'd better have his kids prepared tonight. The 'good coaches" will likely have Dayton ready, as well. We'll find out a lot tonight, one way or the other. Red Boyou and MrFleet23 2 Quote

It doesn’t mean anything at your new school, especially when it’s 180° out from the school you won’t at. Not to mention you were sub-.500 at your last stop also Quote

CCRed Posted August 31 Report Posted August 31 No QB controversy here in Crosby. They were both equally as bad. Quote
