Tim Beck (HC Coastal Carolina)

From someone who gets paid to report on Ohio State football, and is decently regarded:

http://www.cleveland.com/osu/index.ssf/2015/12/will_ohio_states_urban_meyer_m.html

I think he'd have reason to. This is big boy football, and Beck made $525,000 in his first season as Ohio State's quarterbacks coach and co-offensive coordinator and what happened? The quarterbacks regressed and the play calling helped lose the Michigan State game. That problem only got fixed when Ed Warinner moved to the coaching box, which was basically done to take responsibility away from Beck.

Also, Ross Fulton is awfully outspoken against the Tim Beck offense. The question is, does Urban think it can fix itself in 2016?

It's hard to say it was all Beck but to me this offense was just off all year. QBs looking lost with any throw, play calling sequence way off, and comical game plans all have 1 thing in common though. Tim Beck.

I will say this though... no one will replace Tom Herman and what he did but we do need 90% of that ability. Namely the ability to teach the QBS up.

I can't lay all of the blame on the play calling from Beck. Look what he had to work with at the QB position. The QB play was not good and both guys seemed to regress.

With that said, I have to lay the blame 50% on Beck's play calling and the other 50% goes on the QB coach. The QB coaching obviously sucked ass.

Take a wild guess as to who the QB coach is...

So, you're saying he's a double threat?

The way I see it is Meyer's career at Ohio State and the near future of Ohio State football is at a cross road. Meyer has to decide if he thinks he can turn things around with the same staff on offense, and by the end of next season have it all in place for another big run, or risk losing the momentum from last year, losing many recruits on offense and probably defense as well and for all intents and purposes end his career on a mediocre note and never come close to another NC . He makes the big bucks to make these decisions. As fans, we will just enjoy the product or suffer.

Everyone loves a scapegoat because it's an easy solution. If you think "play calling" was the only thing that went wrong against Sparty you're overlooking a lot - not the least of which is the fact that both times OSU scored the defense allowed Sparty's back up QB to march them down the field and get the points back.

"Yeah, but Meyer changed things for TTUN and look how we played!"

This team looked flat, for lack of a better term, most of the season (and not just on offense). We finally saw the team we expected in the last game. Why? They got their manhood challenged. For the first time since January people questioned them. Prior to that it had been about 10 months of listening to the world tell you that you're the best team, by far. It's funny what having your pride hurt can do for a man's will, or about 75 young men in this case.

Do I think Beck is an awesome coach? Hardly. I'm just saying it's too easy to lay everything negative in 2015 at his feet.

What we don't know: How'd the Sunday morning film and coffee discussions go? What was said and to whom? How did JT practice in August? What impact did the early losses at WR have?

As a football coach I know a lot about the high jump. What I do know was that fan expectations were sky high, but the team??? When you have to suspend key players BEFORE the first game I suspect there were problems deeper than Tim Beck.

I vote for for "suffer". We've had it much too good lately, and we need a huge dose of suffering to balance things out and make things fair.
