We lose Bailey if it’s Osovet right?

Why do you say that

We lose Bailey if it’s Osovet right?

Dunno but stylistically, it doesn't appear to be a match.

 

[engineerVOL]

Why do you say that

I don’t know. Is Osovet a Zone read guy? I have no idea.

RPO doesn’t equal read option

RPO doesn’t equal read option

Is RPO what Mizzou runs? If so give me some of that.

 

[Smokey123]

Nobody knows... 99% sure Pruitt did say earlier in the season he wanted more RPO calls and for JG’s to make more passes out of it the few times it was called, so there’s that

Here’s the quote, he was asked about our run game struggles:

If you're going to run the football, you have to have RPO's set up. Maybe you can't block a defender there. Well the answer is, you have an RPO behind it. Well that comes on the quarterback getting the ball out of his hands, so there's lots of different ways. You can go back to the good old-fashioned hat-on-a-hat, everybody's fitted up, but maybe we get defeated there. Sometimes your running backs have to run the ball the right way, too, so there's lots of things that go into it."

Couldn’t find the one saying JG needs to pass more out of it, but IK for sure he said it, I believe after the Utep game

I know.

He’s considered one of the RPO originators.

 

[whitw]

Already celebrating Christmas? How far in the future are you?

He knows who the OC hire was. He won’t disclose that information though. Says we are on a “need to know basis”. Apparently we don’t need to know yet.

Yes they run some of that

 

[Smokey123]

I’m not sure how much of it they run. Nearly every team runs it at least a few times a game. Kendal Briles has lived off of it, Clemson runs it a lot. It stands for Run-Pass-Option. Gotta have a QB who can read a defense and make quick decisions

 

[Smokey123]

Dunno but stylistically, it doesn't appear to be a match.

Are you basing that off his top 2 teams being UT and UM? I can see that, but I’m sure he’d have an open mind to the idea. Especially after Osovet shows him it’s makin it’s way to the NFL and the Chiefs, Eagles, Rams have had tons of success with it.

 

[Smokey123]

Chip Long who’s name was thrown around also, runs a lot of RPO’s too

 

[bignewt]

It’s the same board who convinced themselves Briles baggage wasn’t a big deal

It's not nancy.

Wtf?

 

[Smokey123]

 

[volatil]

Freddy Kitchens offense looks pretty good. Baker in pregame singing his praises. I’m fairly certain he’s earned either the job he has or another NFL gig

Makes sense. I just think of Bailey as that traditional pocket qb, surveying and reading defenses. Probably not fair in today's football when you look at those teams you mentioned, as well as any number of college programs... Drew lock and mo was a good example I didn't even consider....

I hear RPO, And right or wrong, I think zone read RPO...

It's evolved past that, and includes a lot more run options than the running qb.

Vols ran it last season too, just didn’t execute it very well. Fist pass of the game against Bama was a RPO with a slant to the WR but he dropped the pass.

 

[jakez4ut]

Wtf?

See above. I reacted. Didn't really think it thru.

It happens.

Hey I had to endure 1 1/2 hrs of Nut Cracker Ballet downtown Chatttown cause my daughter had big parts in. If I can endure that we all can endure this OC search. PLUS, the seats were those old hard wood theater kind. My butt stills hurts!

Due to my night job, I’ve had to endure two weeks of it.

Interesting. Never coached football, but someone explained Moorhead’s offense like this to me. The original RPO’s kind of read the LB’s, but Moorhead (and Osevet) went further to read the safeties.

 

[Orange Studs]

Twss?

NO NO does not apply here. lol
