Holgerson Will Call Plays
- Thread starter BugsAreQualityProtein
- Start date
Not sarcasm haha. Rhule confirmed in press conference, but see how it could've been
So, our TE play will continue to suck?
Wowzers....seems like a big boy move does it not?
Holy ****ing shit. Never thought this would happen. (in season).

Don’t think will see a massive improvement there until Nelson or a transfer steps up next year.
It can't be any worse than what we've been seeing, can it?
I do have to say, I thought we had seen it all over the years. This is definitely a new one!
I do wonder how you work in something like that mid year when he wasn’t even a part of the program a week ago.
Then I remember how bad our offense has been and how it couldn’t be any worse.

My guess is Rhule had him reviewing film weeks ago, just didn't tell anyone.
Me thinks he’s had a copy of the playbook for quite a while and has been breaking down film as well. Would assume he has a month or so of time he’s been working behind the scenes.
I have to give it to Rhule on that. I just wish we could have started the year with this.
I honestly didn’t think Rhule had it in him. I’m glad I was wrong.
It can always get worse........... Hopefully not, I think it was the right move, noone had confidence in Satt and hopefully gives our players some mojo to finish the season.
So USUALLY you just have a game plan with with plays for that week that you have installed. I would not imagine it would be a huge issue. They won't have the entire playbook out there for the game.
I know who Holgorsen is, but haven't followed him that close. Someone break it down for me: out of all the OC's in CFB right now, where does he rank? A hire? B hire? C hire?
I guess the way I would look at it is like this:
1) Try to salvage the season. Not improving upon last year’s record is a bad sign, and not going to a bowl game is a big letdown to the seniors. Do better.
2) He came to the logical conclusion that Holgerson is much better at this through examination of the historical results of both coaches. Duh.
3) It signals to the players and the fans that you are willing to do what it takes to win and make up for past mistakes in personnel.
Yep. I could care less if it works out at this point, but at least he has the nuts to do it. You've got to give him that.
Just listening to Rhule talk about the locker room in the presser today, just doubles down on my point that we need this senior and probably junior class to graduate and hope that they didn't infect the youngsters too much with their mind virus. I agree with you points above as well.,
DH may not be a long term hire.. Satt could be back in '25
Not sure about a grade without a pretty deep dive into how much of a role he played in the offense at his last 2 HC gigs and how effective those teams were offensively. He hasn't been a stand-alone OC for like 15 years. But I'll just put it this way, had Rhule named him OC when he was first hired, I probably would have said...holy crap, Rhule is going out and getting the best available.
I guess I don't know why you would announce it today.
They should have just proceeded with the public believing Satt will call play with Dana here as another set of eyes.
Why give USC 5 days to watch old teams of Dana and how he calls plays versus Satt? Let USC practice for 5 days of being ready to defend the guy who has called plays for 21 games?
I would bet that Dana has plays from his recent past where he sees guys who can make certain plays work that we haven't run in 1 3/4 years.
probably walked in day 1 and said throw away any designs that involve throwing to that slow #24 out of the backfield
