When he was OC at Kentucky with Hal Mumne throwing the ball 60 times a game? Anyone laughing now? As overall practice time continues to shrink and the amount of padded practices are reduced to next to none . Coaches will have to adapt or get canned.

A group of recevers and a QB can get together in the off season and throw the route tree and play 7 on 7 from dawn to dusk.How do you practice your "3 yard and a cloud of dust" fossil offense? Get padded up and run into a tree?

40 years ago Lavell Edwards & Bill Walsh realized running into a brick wall of superior athletes is stupid. Then Spurrier, Leach, Mumme and your modern guys like B Kelly, Meyer, Ault, Peterson, C Kelly, Herman, Fuente, Malzahn followed suit. Welcome to the 21st century baby!!!

And that has worked out so well in South Bend thank God they're running the ball more

A balanced offense would seem to be the best. Run sets up the pass and the pass sets up the run. Use as many forms of attack as your team is able to master.

Correct sir, air raid and spread offensive level the playing field for smaller schools, there is just less defensive talent to go around, while a couple of good receivers and a good QB are easier to find.
 
WSU was a Big Sky level team when Leach got there as things had been falling apart with no elite athletes recruited there anymore. The Cougars had no talent at all on defense and legitimately should have considered just onside kicking it on every kick off seeing how bad things were,

He’s fixed so much there and his elite offensive scheme gives them a chance in every game even though the Cougars still have less talent than most elite teams.

Yeah ND really ran the crap out of the ball vs UGA? But at least they won the game. Oh wait they couldnt do that either. Football ignoramus strikes again!!!!! Stay stupid dippy doo.

Too bad we'll never know what would've happened, if Dexter Williams had some carries. Coaching mistake to not try, imo. Maybe an Irish win, if so.

LMAO at you Mr 1%

Interesting you were MIA after the Georgia game but we were all here.
By the way they only lost by one point second game of the season against a top-10 team.....Bravo for showing your complete ignorance again
 
Anyone that watched the GA game and came away w/ the idea that we passed a lot is an idiot.

Well our bread and butter play on 3rd and 9 was to have Wim take the shotgun snap, look around then stumble forward for a gain of 1 yd. I sure hope those were called as passes.
