The new ole miss offensive coordinator

[grimedawg1]

alpears to not know what he's doing in big boy football. How do you only score 16 with no points in last 9 possessions against a PAC 12 defense?

Patterson could really use some competent coaching.

 

[BossDawg78]

Watching OM a little. They appear to have several issues. Im gonna go ahead and predict that they don't make a bowl game this year.

 

[grimedawg1]

They do, especially on defense. But they are limited by personnel in defense. On offense, they have players and they run around like they are playing 7 on 7 instead of playjng 11 man tackle football.

Caught a show last week with their OC going over game film. He described the offense as back yard football. They don't teach how to read the defense. You just look for someone to be open.

 

[msunat97]

I thought each week was a bowl game for them

 

[bulldognation]

More like toilet bowl amirite?

I hope they're paying Patterson's brother a lot of money because Shae 17ed himself out of millions going there. The boy has some talent but you can tell he's not being coached and that playground offense they run will make every NFL team consider him a project rather than a high draft pick. Another young man with huge potential ruined by the OM football "program". OM, where highly recruited kids come to see their career die.

Boy was he winded last night, gonna have to

Get in better shape to play in that offense*

 

[goodknight]

Reminds me of tamu and Johnny and we see where he's playing now, not!

 

[MaroonNation]

Their only real threat at receiver, a piece of bloody snake **** named A.J. Brown, sprained his ****** on one of the first plays of the game and got to karma view the end of our game from the OM sideline.

 

[ChinaDogSunflower]

He'll get that when he transfers to OU

 

[woozman]

Didn't see their game because I was driving back from Vegas. Browsing a rebel board this morning and there is talk that the Cal DC was telling his players on the sideline that OM was running the same play over and over. Further discussion that the new OM OC admitted that his playbook consisted of 28 plays...

 

[ShrubDog]

They pass the ball every play. They have zero run game. They had about 15 rush attempts, not including the 11 scrambles made by Shae.

Sam Houston State would run circles around this team, feel bad for Longo....uh no

 

[KurtRambis4]

What're you talking

about? They've already played in three, this season!

[RutherfordBHayes]

Only those deluded Rebels end up with an old, career DB coach and an old, career FCS assistant, make them Coordinators and think they have upgraded. Oh yeah, on top of garbage assistants, take a career OL coach into the head coach.

 

[tatedog]

Seriously though, I would feel slightly sorry for them if there weren't so many douche bags who aren't fans of theirs.

 

[dog12]

During the 2nd half, I got the impression that Ole Miss was running the ball because they didn't have confidence in their QB to throw the ball.

Patterson looked terrible during the 2nd half of that game. He looked rattled to me.

His quotes from SEC Film Room are pretty much: "We teach the quarterback to NOT read the defense before the snap. Go with the play that's called and trust your instincts. Look for the streak of our team's jersey so you know he's open. If there's the blur of an opposing jersey you know he's covered."

I was like WT17 did I just hear?

 

[Uncle Ruckus]

He's pretty offensive.

 

[blacklistedbully]

Yep...he calls it, "chasing space". I read about him and his philosophy when they hired him. In addition to, "chasing space", he very specifically wants his QB to not be the decision-maker...not even consider reading the defense. He wants his WR's to do that, and for his QB to just be the, "delivery-boy" when the WR's are wide open.

Right then I figured a few things:
A) He is lucky to have a 5-star QB already on the roster who has a great arm and can scramble
B) He needs an elite QB to be successful with his system
C) He will be hard-pressed to sign elite QB's going forward, because elite QB's have dreams of getting drafted high into the NFL, and what QB is going to think that will happen when they aren't being taught to read defenses, call protection, etc?
D) He needs elite WR's to be successful. He is lucky to have them already on board
E) He will eventually have trouble signing elite WR's because those guys want to play for a QB who can actually get them the ball, in a system that actually works against the talented defenses they will see in the SEC. As mentioned above...he will have trouble signing that QB

That system worked well in lower division, but you have to consider the competition. A lot was made of how much scoring Sam Houston State did under his direction as OC. But if you look at their scoring in the years prior, you will find SHS was a high-scoring offense well before Lungo got there.

He leveraged being a sand lot football genius into a 6 figure income. Props to him.

"Oh yeah, we're going to be a balanced offense."—Hugh Freeze to Cam Akers after the Longo hire.

The commentators were talking about it last night like it was some kind of novel concept or something. Said he tells shea shea not to worry about mistakes, if one guy ain't open look to the next guy and trust your cannon. Never once hinted that they may be damaging a potential career for him, by not learning anything.

See Laquon Treadwell as prime example.
