MOUSER RPO FILM STUDY

Film study link above. Main takeaway is if RPOs were the main entree in Kotelnicki and Yurcich's offenses, then they are a side dish at best in Mouser's playbook. Only time we see any true RPO creativity is on 4th downs. One thing that was unexpectedly troubling was how mediocre (putting it nicely) Becht is at reading RPOs...for a guy who's unafraid to attack defenses vertically, he's hesitant and gunshy in a lot of this. I think we stuck 4 such reps in this video, but we clipped like 10-12 to showcase. Figured after 4 you get the point.

Then it makes sense that it is not a integral part of the offensive scheme, thankfully (Hackenberg nightmare).
