He makes his living on the deep ball. Yes in 2016 Ross could have waited for even more bombs from Jake but the last two years would have been a waste
People forget that Mr. Freeze liked to throw it up to String and beat Bama twice doing so
Like any recent high-powered college offense its predicated on run/pass options and zone reads and moving at tempo. They would throw deep if the defense over committed to the comeback route. Take what the defense gives you- novel stuff.
Any offensive scheme is a waste if the defense knows they don't have to worry about the deep threat.
Yes
Your 2017 and 2018 Husky offense
The combo no elite speed and a noodle arm made us very easy to defend
It makes Gaskin all the more amazing IMO
Edit to add that the return of Hunter helped a lot. It showed glimpses of what can be
Or just have Browning graduate and any offense would flourish
There's more to it.
See 2016 when Tedford was here, and our offense went down as soon as he left even though we had the same players.
I think you underestimate the impact John Ross had. Having a guy who could get so open that Browning can underthrew him by ten yards and still complete the pass made a huge difference. Tedford just happened to be here the year Ross was healthy and had an actual receivers coach to teach him how to run routes.
Losing Ross >>>> Losing Tedford
Both were issues, but we can actually see the drop off in the 2016 season after Tedford left for the Fresno job, which he accepted Nov 9, 2016.
In the six Pac12 games when Tedford was still here, we averaged 48 points per game.
In the four Pac12 games after Tedford left for the Fresno job, we averaged 36 pointers per game.
It could be that our SOS was slightly harder in the last 4 games, but I think Tedford was doing more for our offense, in terms of preparing weekly game plans (scouting the other team's D), than most people give him credit for.

Do we consider Jake's shoulder a factor in this or naw?
Liberty is a fucking joke, lol. First they hire Baylor's AD, then they hire Hugh Freeze... Yeah I'm sure this will go well
Just win baby.
Generally yes.
A school with Liberty's stated mission and purpose for being, no.
I mean its a given that they are massive hypocrites. We didn't need this episode to know that.
But I am sure they are thinking a successful football program is the best way to get free publicity with which to proselytize and bring more unsaved souls into the flock and thereby do the most good.

I've gone back and forth.
