I too refused to be hoodwinked. Every couple of years someone is going to create a strong offensive line, run power football or convert us to a pro style; I am going to wait for the first person to be successful at it before I actually believe anyone is going to accomplish it. 

Yup Spread or Air Raid and that's it.

Spread is a very broad term, I would need to hear specifics before I could consider it a recipe for success (but yes there are spreads that have the best opportunity for success but others that will make us look like our current offense).

That dog poop we have been seeing for 7 quarters can't be what Bell wants. We are placing offensive football back to before the stone age. 

Snap the ball and see how fast a bag of concrete can run for it's life...that is what the last 7 quarters were before McCloud came in...

As long as it's not a power spread ala Auburn we'll be ok.  Zone blocking in the running game  is a must IMO and I think we could really do something with an air raid offense because of how quick the ball gets out and OL are athletic and on most plays their job is just to not have a jail break.  While it's pass heavy it doesn't require a fantastic line.

Maybe we can use our new academic prowess to start a new 7 on 7 league and abandon the line all together, I know it sounds like pipe dream but it is more realistic than the people that go around dreaming of the new powerful line year after year.

If bell believes the offense is supposed to resemble what we’ve seen when Blake runs then he shouldn’t be the oc here and it’s another bad hire by Charlie 

I really can't say Charlie has hired one good person. We have gotten considerably worse for three straight seasons.

Not I, sir.  I was warning people about the tackles all summer/post spring but certain "insiders" repeatedly shouted me down.

I'm going to be insufferable tomorrow because all I'm going to talk about is getting good offensive tackles at USF.  I feel bad for my coworkers but somebody has to speak this into existence.
