Wake up we haven't done anything since 2001 these West Coast/ Spread pro style offenses don't work here and never will
Bring back option and power running
- Thread starter sneptune
- Start date
I watched a pro style team beat that 2001 Nebraska team worse than anything we put on the field this year.
Running the football....don't leave that out. We ran a pro style offense with the addition of the option in 95.
Running the football is more the point. That means practicing running the ball more than passing.
it will work with a QB, receivers, and an Oline. We have zero talent on this team thanks to Pelini.
Yes. Let's scheme our way around the fact that this team wasn't that athletically talented to start with and then lose the team's best 3 players to injury.
We had better be increasing talent before we worry about option scheme.

I don't believe scheme has mattered all that much to be honest. Our players are just average talent wise.
That's right bring back that power on both sides of the ball and the identity will come back.
That Miami team had access to athletes to run that offense that Nebraska will never have...
Then we should ditch our staff right now because their recruiting isn't looking much better.
When Mike was hired, we on this very board all agreed that we had enough talent to win right away.
It's not a talent issue, it's a coaching issue.

BTW, power running is just a difference in blocking. Basically it's man to man blocking rather than zone blocking.
Yes your right look at the G schemes and such we use to run yes we did have good lines back then to but option also helps create angles for your lineman and at times double teams at the point of attack. If we are going to run these zone schemes and runs then bring in the people who can coach them
Quit this bullshit bring back the option crap! We just have to recruit better athletes that fit this system. Good grief man
Ok how long have we been recruiting for this offense since 2003 you Cmon man
Agree. And satin Starter jackets. And Jorts. If we have all of those things we will be good again.
We do have some talent problems but you have a group that does nothing but blame the talent then you have the group who only blames the coaches. Neither side budges on what they see as the problem. I think our coaching staff was a poor hire but I'm not sold on that enough to say talent isn't an issue as well. We have some holes to fill but that certainly isn't the answer to all of our problems.
And I'm sick of hearing about recruit better we can't close haven't you noticed. But I would like to give the new hire a chance
Get better Jimmy's and Joe's then you'll have better X's and O's.
Bringing back the option won't return us to glory. It starts with defense. Almost every team who has won the National Championship has had a dominant defense, and an offense that doesn't make many mistakes.
Unfortunately, I have zero confidence in ever having a dominant defense under Mark Banker.

Gotta play better defense if we we want to run the option/power offense.
Yes I agree better defense but look at it they aren't physical and that starts on the lines we need that attitude and the offenses we be running don't provide that
Qurterback isn't the problem. RF looks damn good out there.
I wanted Air Force's Troy Calhoun when Riley was hired. I like Niumotololo way better Paul Johnson. PJ's defense's at GT have been horrendous.
