1. Pick plays to get receivers more openWhat is the number one thing this offense needs to work on for the upcoming bowl game? My take is getting our very talented backs more involved in the passing game. Your thoughts?
Your thoughts are more focused than mine, but we are generally saying the same thing. Great answer!1. Pick plays to get receivers more open
2. Wheel routes for the RBs
3. More superback routes running down the field instead of across it
Generally, 10-15 yard passes.

Ha ha maybe so! The Illini had the dropsies today big time!They need to buy an automatic tennis ball machine and make all the WR's catch 1000 balls every day between now and the bowl game.
Sorry if this is being too critical of CT but he needs to practice stepping up into the pocket or some other escape option instead of rolling to the right. Actually, it has become such a tendency that some trickeration could be built off it.
1. Give Vault's carries to Long. find a way to get Vault the pill in the passing game. Why do we have to keep discussing this????What is the number one thing this offense needs to work on for the upcoming bowl game?

The tennis ball machine works, but it won't matter until the receivers run precise routes. The route running is awful. I wouldn't call passes either after seeing the results after 12 games.They need to buy an automatic tennis ball machine and make all the WR's catch 1000 balls every day between now and the bowl game.
And have them do 100 pushups for every one dropped.They need to buy an automatic tennis ball machine and make all the WR's catch 1000 balls every day between now and the bowl game.
Watching a replay of the game and noticed a shot of McCall up in the booth, calling plays through a telephone. Did his headset break or something (the two coaches next to him had headsets on), or is he really just that old school?

The worst possible thing, if a quarterback is rolling right, is for a receiver approaching the sideline to cut left, 'back inside.' Every quarterback is taught to never roll out then throw to the middle, because that's how pick-sixes happen. Just too many bodies to get through before you reach the intended target.Need to change receiver patterns as soon as Thorson rolls out to the right. Seems like they keep running to the sideline until they run out of real estate. Have them curl, cut back inside, something other than everybody just continuing to run out of bounds.
GCG, you definitely lead the board in 'flip, one-sentence posts critical of another poster's thoughts without adding any actual value.'Do you really think our coaches haven't thought of these "innovative" techniques?

On the upside, they are typically only one sentence.
Oh the downside, they really detract from all the insights you do have.
Also on the upside, they tend to project that you think you're smarter than everyone, rather than a few targets.
Also on the downside, they're annoying.
You'd be way more appreciated if you ran everything through the 'does it add insight or opinion?' filter.
Just my (unwelcome) $.02.
10-2!!

best to put him on ignore. im beginning to wonder what insights he has. He does do a good job of cutting and pasting recruiting info during the offseason but his endless attacks against posters, along with incoherent post makes his comments unitnteresting.GCG, you definitely lead the board in 'flip, one-sentence posts critical of another poster's thoughts without adding any actual value.'

Ironic then that you liked my post on this very thread then, eh?
Did I dream it (which is sadly possible, I have no life) or did I see CT take a snap under center on a short yardage play against UI?
- Add some pro sets,
- Add some gap plays, rather than all zone read
- Double tight
- Add stretch zone (like Iowa)
do you have proof?Ironic then that you liked my post on this very thread then, eh?
Wait... it was there a minute ago... MAGIC!
do you have proof?
Great one-sentence takedown! (Not sarcastic.)Do you think it's as hilarious as I do that you're so self-conscious as to attempt to cover your tracks?
