Hail Varsity Interviews Hal Mumme



Talks about a range of topics from his history with Dana, WR screens, and why Nebraska should give the Air Raid a stab.
Coach Mumme makes a good point about reps and getting guys reps during the week, screen game etc and using the right kind of personnel for certain plays. I think Nebraska fans should see some more successful plays coming from the right guys being used for certain plays and should see some more consistency in the box score as well with certain guys
It’s a recipe for consistency that this offense/team needs
Can it get done in three weeks? Jury’s out but there’s enough reps I think that it’ll show. Mumme Bowl this weekend, Go Big Red

Here’s my problem with the “right guys for the right plays” idea. Satt became very predictable by his player subs. It drives me crazy to see 3-5 guys running on and off the field on every play. Put your best guys on the field and leave them there for at least a series. That’s why you recruit guys like Fidone who can be a matchup problem lined up at TE or split out. Put a fullback in there, run power a few times then sneak him out for a short pass. Soooo many things you can do without wholesale substitutions.

I agree, to me the right guys get more reps in practice and run those same plays in games which is why I said you’d see it in the box score
We should see things like target share trends etc
If guys can’t run screens they shouldn’t be on the field or running those plays
Maybe our transfer WRs need to be benched. I’m looking forward to seeing new trends emerge

Amen. It’s like our OC was designed to kill rhythm. I think just changing these wholesale subs will make our offense instantly more potent
