    OK arm chair OC's - here's your chance to stick your neck out

    Well, if the issue is that we can't handle a blitz, then make it harder for the defense to blitz. I know the coaching staff is allergic to things that cause penalties, but run a cadence on the snap and allow the QB to adjust the protection. Get play calls in faster and hurry up the offense. Pass...

    Get off Mick

    Let me tell you a story about the Vanderbilt football offense. Vandy had 3 of their best recruiting classes of all time in a row. 4 star QBs, receivers and two all SEC O lineman to boot. Vandy also had a bad offensive coordinator named Karl Dorrell. That year the offense averaged 280 yards a...

    Trevor Time!!!

    It's been so great to watch mile high report implode the past couple years. The fans treated Trevor like crap and it turns out he was better than Lynch and Keenum

    Can we get a little realistic?

    Agreed with much of the sentiments by OP. But gosh, Collins needs to find a way to fill some classes. Rick Barnes was successful at Tennessee in large part because he filled classes with a bunch of dudes and reloaded when guys transferred out. You get enough bites at the 3 star apple and...

    Why can’t NU be an O-line powerhouse?

    3 2021 4 star OLs are supposedly visiting today. Garret Dellinger, Teddy Prochazka and Bennett Pitcher. 4 star 2021 OT Drew Kendall also seems to have visited. It's a good sign to be receiving visits from a few top OLs early in the cycle

    OT: CWS

    There's no restriction on need based aid and you can allocate fractional scholarships in baseball. So need can cover 50% of a kids tuition and you can allocate half a scholarship. Need based aid is also more prevalent at Vandy compared to public schools so many players will qualify for full...

    SUPERBACK MARSHALL LANG COMMITS TO NU

    Dan Vitale: 6' 2" and lightly recruited, most programs wouldn't recruit a TE at this size. Ever. Yet he was a top receiver for us and now plays on Sundays (at full back now) Drake Dunsmore: 6' 3" mid 3 star with only a few P5 offers. Also a top receiver and NFL draftee Garret Dickerson: 6' 3"...

    Like Dan "2 star" Vitale? Too short to play at most programs, too athletic for defenses to keep up with in the NU offense.

    I think we get it by now, can you let us plebs speculate in peace?

    Yea, the average college offense does well with bigger tight ends, the NU offense does better with smaller tight ends.

    My guess is it was a size issue. 6'4" 225 is a little on the smaller end and it doesn't look like he had a huge frame in his film (although maybe he's grown since). Most programs want 6'5" 6'6" guys that can play at 250/260. We've had a lot of success in the program with smaller, more agile...
