"Let it fly".......or whatever works.

Seth has made NT a running offense....is this a result of QB passing confidence?

Even if we had a good QB, I still think we'd be a run first offense with our stable of backs.

Keep with it until it stops working. Or until it's 4th and 1.

Maybe be a little more patient getting back to the line on a few plays, though, and give the defense a breather.

What kills me is that we refuse to get under center and run QB sneaks when we need less than a yard. Anyone notice Philly do it a few times last night? It's impossible to stop if you line 2 backs behind the QB and have them push forward.

From the "Could you imagine" files  -- Mason With this O-line and Running backs

Also from the “could you imagine” files, Aune throwing to 3 future NFL receivers with a NFL running back lined up next to him. Sure would make those bad passes more catchable.

If you are averaging 10.1 yards per carry you’d be a fool to pass the ball even with Tom Brady or Peyton Manning throwing it.

Good receivers have nothing to do with overthrown and balls in the dirt. If our current receivers had a Fine-caliber QB throwing to them, I think some would also make the NFL. Actually I think regardless, Shorter could make it.

Listen, we could have prime Calvin Johnson and prime Randy Moss out there and it wouldn't change the location of the ground.

I think we do have some good running backs, but let us also tip the cap to the usually forgotten big bellies. 

I have to admit, I was concerned with Duncan at RT, but he has played extremely well.  The entire line has been a bright spot.

100% agree and outside of his escapability, Mike Evans won Johnny Manziel the Heisman.

I heard someone on what the broadcast say something like a great receiver can make an average quarterback look great but an average quarterback will make a great receiver look average.

I have always wondered about a school like Ohio State that always has incredible receivers. Their quarterbacks are always talked up but few (of their QBs) seem to do anything in the NFL.

"Helping the runner" rules...

"The penalty in college and high school was later reduced to 10 yards, and finally 5 yards. The NFL and CFL continued with the foul as 10 yards. In 2005, the National Football League made the penalty only for pulling and carrying, removing the flag in cases of pushing. The NCAA followed in 2013. Pushing still remains illegal in high school games."

      Breaking: North Texas set to Hire SHSU DC Skyler Cassity

      I would take 30-60 as a success overall but what I really don't want is a defense that gets absolutely steamrolled in any one game. Show me you can adjust during games to counter opponent's adjustments. I do put some of Caponi's failure on Eric Morris with his poor game management so I guess we'll see if he can do some soul searching this offseason.

      Breaking: North Texas set to Hire SHSU DC Skyler Cassity

      I'm sure there are some more experienced guys that have legitimate claim to serious looks. I just never got the vibe that there was one or two home-run hires available to us.

      Breaking: North Texas set to Hire SHSU DC Skyler Cassity

      One stop. 51st and 117th at ACU is not success. Stop lying to yourself. I'm bitching because this is an atrocious hire. Allowed 39 to Texas State and 45 to a bad UCF team which included being ran over for almost 400 yards and 6 TDs. I would have wanted one of the Co-DCs (or both) from Northern Illinois, Bowling Green, or Miami (OH). We could money whip any and all of their DCs. You want to see success that doesn't involve getting steamrolled for 40 like Cassity's defense, look at those teams. NIU: 7th in total defense, highest G5 ranking. Held now #5 Notre Dame to 14 and NC State to 24. Most points allowed was 25 to Ball State. They have co-DCs we could have doubled in pay for less than Caponi. Bowling Green (I brought them up in a thread a couple days ago, sorry you don't read other posts): 29th in total defense, have co-DCs one of which spent almost a decade as DC in DFW high schools (including Haltom City when Lance Dunbar was there). Held Texas A&M to 26 and now #3 Penn State to 34, both on the road. Miami (OH): 14th in total defense. Held Northwestern to 13, Cincinnati to 27, and Notre Dame to 28. Most don't have Texas ties. I don't think that matters as much in today's day. I'd like to know when's the last time Texas ties helped us in football anyways. It certainly doesn't stop the bigger Texas programs. What all those schools do have is low ressources and yet a demonstrated ability to hold their P4 opponents to respectable scoring outputs. Regarding Cassity, I put zero stock in his top 20 defense. That is 100% a reflection of the CUSA competition. Allowing 39 to Texas State and 45 to a 4-8 UCF team is unacceptable and shows what he's actually capable of. I was ridiculed for calling out our game management and highly inconsistent offense early this year only to be proven right. I'll take the hit here again but I don't want to read BS about what went wrong if and when he fails.
