Tampering with Raiola

[dinglefritz]

I suspect Raiola would like to have the WR coach fired.

That article floating around where Raiola basically said "don't blame Satterfield, blame the execution" was clearly a criticism on that.

Someone as talented as Raiola is only going to deal with WRs dropping huge passes and missing blocks for so long, as it will soon be encroaching on his future career/money.

He has a front-row seat to seeing 17 year olds on Ohio State making NFL-level plays, and he's going to want in unless this shit gets turned around quick.

Raiola was shouldering some of the blame for the execution. He’s missed a fair number of wide open receivers and those misses have cost us 2 games IMO. He knows that.

In the Illinois game alone we had a WR allow the CB to rip a beautiful TD pass out of his hands, so now you have Raiola thinking these guys aren't going to win any contested balls.

Raiola gets 10% of the blame, the wideouts being poorly coached by some nepotism hire kid get all the rest.

Enlighten me as to what plays are “easy” against B1G defenses. A lot depends a lot on what the D does too. Satt routinely gets outschemed by DCs. Sirles had a good take on this topic yesterday. Do the simple things well or the easy things well BUT I think it’s inaccurate to call ANY play easy. It’s only easy IF you hit the right play against the right D call or a defender blows his assignment like Gifford did against OSU on that QB keeper.

I know one team that was a sucker for jet sweeps. Again. And again. And again. And again.

Rhule should hire a second OL coach.

Every player gets their own coach.

Would probably be worse than only have 1 position coach.

The WRs have been an upgrade and underwhelming at the same time. What a mess.

I have a question for all of you.

“Do you think DRs stock has gone up or down since the beginning of the year?”

We all know where he was at coming out of HS. Where is he now after starting for a B1G school for basically a year? I am just interested in your thoughts.
