Irish Posted May 27, 2018 Share Posted May 27, 2018 12 minutes ago, UND-1 said: The opposite. They have 3-4 options at the line for each play and they must check to the right one. As they do that the OL/TE must check immediately as well. Too many variables in a short time to play fast, IMO. Audibles are a part of football but when they change every week it has to bog down the players eventually. Rudolf somehow thinks this "strategery" will somehow flummox the defense so they won't know how to stop our 185 pound running back from going up the middle. He's a typical case of an idiot who knows just enough technical things to be a menace. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's far too reliant on a basic inside running game, that quite frankly, when you have average at best offensive linemen, will not work. There needs to be a greater emphasis on the passing game. I'm not saying open this thing up like Sam Houston State does, but the quarterback position and offensive formations/calls associated needs to open up some. People joke that all three RBs should be on the field at the same time; I don't think that's a joke at all. I seriously think an innovative offensive coordinator would find a way to have that happen consistently for UND's offense. Swallow your pride for wanting to be this "basic smash mouth team" that you aren't and actually put a little thought into the offense. The best players need to consistently be on the field. I really question if this offensive staff can do that. All 3 backs in at same time you say? Who would do such a thing? https://blogs.usafootball.com/blog/6204/check-out-how-north-dakota-state-s-diamond-power-read-has-contributed-to-the-bison-s-success Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sioux94 Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 There has been a series of interesting articles as to who should be voted #3 this year. Below is one paragraph from the article. If only we had an offensive coordinator who would adapt to the current roster instead of trying to fit square pegs into round holes at times. Here is a link to full article: https://herosports.com/fcs/football-south-dakota-state-preseason-no-3-jackrabbits-bzbz Don’t be surprised, though, to see a revamped SDSU offense. Offensive coordinator Eric Eidsness has shown the ability to adapt and alter his offense, like after 2014 with the graduation of Zach Zenner in a power-run system. While Mengarelli led the Jacks in rushing, Isaac Wallace showed plenty of explosion and Mikey Daniel brings the power. SDSU may benefit from a more balanced offensive approach this season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dmksioux Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 It's really too bad we don't adapt a game plan around the talent we have at the running back position. John Santiago makes a list for top running backs. I feel as though Oliveria is the better "running back" between the two. Santiago is a great talent but as far as a "running back," he lacks some fundamentals. He has gotten better since his freshman year. Would have been nice to see Oliveria at least make the list as "other running backs" to watch. https://athlonsports.com/college-football/top-10-returning-running-backs-fcs-2018 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks!! I needed a good laugh today. Don't worry, after his 78 full back dives in the 1st 2 and a half games, he'll be injured again and then talked about how great of player he was. "He's sure dynamic plunging ahead for 3.7 yards a pop, 30 carries, 111 yards per game". What a joke. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or the hockey players (I kid, I kid).... sorry wrong thread. I say don't purposely limit your recruiting base because of some bad apples. Like when the Gophs made a big deal of going all-Minnesota and won zilch; then turned around and let two Grand Forks kids in and voila, or something like that. A million-plus metro two hours north of Forks should not be ignored in any of our sports programs. 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I were in charge, and I probably should be, I'd count each Canadian commit at half of face value. Since you can't count on a half commit, another Canadian commit at O-line would of made 1 full commit. That's the rule, going forward. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
