Hall - calling plays that compliment the talent

[FLCowboyFan]

I was listening to the Orange Bowl on the radio on the way home and I heard something that got me thinking. They talked about the Penn State coach and how the OL was not strong enough to push defenses around. Shockingly he re-organized the offense to allow them to use their strengths which is their speed vs their strength.

It seems like our coaches are hard headedly trying to force our players to play a style that they would like us to play regardless of the talent that we have. Maybe I'm just trying to make sense of why our OL stinks so bad no matter who we plug into it over the past 3 years. Then again we are on our 2nd OL coach in 2 years.

I've had the same thoughts....but on the defensive side of the ball.

I made several post about this and I agree. We do it on offense and on defense. BP wants to "attack the corners" with our running game by having his Olinemen pull yet none of our linemen except A. Johnson are athletic enough do that well.

And we have better Dlinemen than LBs yet he wants to run 3-4 defense majority of the time. Why not run a 4-3 majority of the time and mix in some 3-4 this year and once we get better LBs next year we can do the 3-4 majority of the time?

You get a lot more freedom to do things like that in the college game.

It seems like if it ain't right at the begining of the Season with Parcells it still ain't gonna be right at the end
