Play Calling - is it time to hand that over to someone else?

[1Ramsker3]

After watching every game this season and last, I feel like it's time for Frost to hand over the play calling to Walters (or other offensive coordinator). I'm not asking that we change our system, although I would like to see a few less swing passes. I think this would help him manage the game better among other benefits. I feel like getting plays from the booth where someone is able to separate a little from the field, they can make better decisions and will have better view of what's happening on the field.

It won’t happen.

Several losses land on Frost this season, botched clock and QB management against Iowa as an example.

I am not a fan of this offense and play calling. When the run is working they work away from it when we need it. The passing keys routes for one player. They don’t try to run play action to huge TEs to the seam or corner route. Our QB is scared to throw. I guarantee our WRs aren’t as bad as people make them out to be, they don’t get thrown at.

our OL improved. Our running game improved. But our play calling leaves all of us scratching our heads and these guys seem clueless when it’s a close game and fail more often then not.

get better. Develop a nasty run game and that will force teams to drop a safety and then passing becomes easier.

How do we know who is actually calling the plays? Has Frost (or Walters) ever said, "I'm the one calling the plays."? Honest question.

I don’t know that either, I just know that it fails more than it needs to.

Last I heard, Frost calls the plays but he supposedly gets input from Walters. I'm not asking for them to re-invent the playbook but I think they need someone who is not on the field calling the plays and getting ready for the next series when the defense is on the field. The booth seems like it would have a little more information to work with to help them make decisions on what plays to run.
