Offense Identity Moving Forward

I would love to be a fly on the wall inside Lea and the offensive staffs meetings and I would love to get 4 bourbons in Lea and hear his honest thoughts. My guess is Lea would admit he had no idea how outmanned we would be on both sides of the ball and especially how quick teams would score on us an...

Re: Vandy-Tennessee thread

Being down 16 makes it a 2 td game. 17 or 18 makes it a 3 score difference.

Oedipus was told his destiny by the Oracle so he left to avoid it. He found that from which he ran away.

KHB ran from a program because he didn't like his coach getting fired. He found it.

Re: Thoughts on Vandy's loss to the Fighting Leaches

I doubt we'll see seals this year. You nailed it, you don't win without a modest run game nor any pass protection. Our defense tried hard after the inevitable base defense of the first 2 drives where we scout out how they score several times to come up with a plan to combat it. I thought this was a ...

Re: Thoughts on Vandy's loss to South Carolina

Re franklin.... Franklin admitted at times he was never an x and o guy, but focused on the emotional intelligence required to coach. I think a lot of coaches love the game and coach it. Franklin loves people and coaches them. Very few people are long term successful in the former category who are gr...

Re: Let's go ahead and have a QB controversy

To me it is not a controversy about them as individuals but rather what type of offense we want to be, a hybrid spread option or a pro style.

Re: Thoughts on Vandy's loss to South Carolina

Roanoke, I have always enjoyed your post. The mason era drove me away from this site as there was nothing left to say and think. The only quibble I have is that it wasn't the Stanford of thr 90s, but the one directly he left and forced a speedy but small offense to replicate. Mason did what so many ...

Re: Disappointed but not done

It underscores now 7 years of frustration. Well never have a line to protect a nom mobile QB well. Somehow mason never knew that and Lea might not have seen that until tonight.

Re: Vandy-South Carolina thread

Total loss on the staff. Total. Our zone coverage was terrible and he doesn't see it. Hes incompetent. He needs to take total ownership of loss or I'm done with him.

Re: Vanderbilt-Georgia thread

Since Franklin, our coaching staff has always played offensively conventionally showing either a lack of analytical thought or a lack of creativity, or both. But 1, don't run the ball out of the end zone and 2, illegal procedure is not on coaching. The kids are making this more difficult on themselv...

Re: Things that really stood out

It is a much longer list to draw the distinctions between vanderbilt and Stanford than the similarities. Mason didn't understand that.

Shaw's answer was lame in trying to explain the difference.

Re: Things that really stood out

One other thing that stood out to me....

Mason thought he could get those type of personnel to vanderbilt and run that kind of offense.

Boy do I miss his realistic approaches to what we could do well and not do well. He had weapons no doubt, but when he left, the writing was on the wall.
