Himself. If you micromanage your guys too much, you end up with an Utah offense.

Some of you guys are WAY WAY too hard on your offensive coordinator

Medute

Jake was the bigger issue last night

BYUnerd

10:40am

We’re too hard on our OC? You guys just ran yours out of the program.

BigGulps

10:41am

Our offense is just so so so bad

Medute

10:42am

I would agree with you. Arod designs a good offense. My issue is with the

Boring

We actually have expectations on offense

Dryfire

10:42am

Right, but the issue is why are those expectations not being met

Medute

10:44am

The 2 point conversion attempt against Utah was enough to show ARod deserves the

How do you explain 2 touchdowns last 2 games.

I only watched the first half of last night in details so can't comment

Medute

10:45am

The fade play was absolutely a bad

BYU71

10:49am

It’s quite possible they have executed that play very well in practice

Medute

He did the same thing last week against the Utes. Did you not watch?

Huge Manatee

I buried that game in the depths of my mind

Medute

3:04pm

You want to take him back?

foofcoug

10:43am

I would take him in a heartbeat right now

Medute

10:45am

Feel free.

Is this some attempt to encourage your rival to keep somebody you know is very

Our QB has had two really rough outings. Saturday was bad.

You can't help yourself can you, seriously though, it was about as bi-polar

stansburycoug

He's not wrong.

Benfica1

On your point 1 and point 2

Medute

11:26am

You dont throw the fade with Retzlaff..he has no touch. Its as bad a call

stansburycoug

11:37am

I agree with this post. Well designed offense. And most of the issues were with

bob falfa

11:06am

He is doing it with players who were projected to finish last in conference

Medute

Two things that bother me that have killed us this season:

crazY

12:58pm

This makes sense. Issue is player execution

Resurgens

5:42pm

Just look at your recruiting rankings and projections

Medute

5:53pm

I suspect we will need to start recruiting better to have staying power in the

Resurgens

5:56pm

Yep. Although I tend to think this conference will be pretty equal in talent

Medute

The problem with your post, is ARod is also the QB Coach

slatecoug

6:42pm

But what if Ratzliff isn’t good? Is that ARod’s fault?

Medute

6:45pm

It's still his fault. He put Jake in positions where Jake has shown he struggles

slatecoug

6:48pm

Has any coach ever found a way to avoid all bad situations for an average QB?

Medute

7:08pm

Retzlaff missed terribly on the fade route the week before, so you give him that

slatecoug

7:13pm

I’m no expert but someone said Retzlaff called that play and made the read

Medute

7:15pm

The play call came in from ARod. It's a play that gives Jake multiple options...

slatecoug

7:24pm

I see. It seems Jake made the wrong read but there is criticism for the player

Medute

7:28pm

If Retzlaff isnt that good thats doubly ARods fault

stansburycoug

7:34pm

Recruiting is a fair criticism. But BYU hasn’t let the football team pay the QBs

Medute

7:46pm

BTW, if you go back and watch the Kansas D, it was almost like they knew what

slatecoug

7:06pm

I wonder if BYU is trying to use too many players. So that when personnel groupings come in it is tipping off what type

Spiff

7:07pm

I believe that is a big part. I also think BYU needs to do some self scouting.

slatecoug

7:11pm

I do agree with you that ARod is very good at play design, but that is only one

slatecoug

7:15pm

I think he called a nearly perfect first 30 minutes

Medute

7:19pm

Retzlaff is not calling plays. He's being given a play that has multiple options

slatecoug

7:25pm

Ok. But he made the wrong read and there was a guy open on that play

Medute

7:30pm

Yes, Jake did make the wrong read

slatecoug

8:14pm

I get it. But you can only protect a mediocre player so much

Medute

8:37pm

I agree with some of that, but when you are the guy responsible for recruiting &

Thanks for taking a break from running the Big 12 to tell us

Gotta watch something other than our dumpster fire

Medute

Appreciate the insights and kind words. Thank you!

ColonelMustard

You can have all the beautiful play design in the world, but if your guys can't execute them, it doesn't matter one bit

jaromp

10:11pm

Right. But perhaps it’s just a matter of who gets the blame
