Tim Beck (HC Coastal Carolina)

So Beck is the QB Coach? Now I think we should fire him too along with the guy calling the plays against MSU.

Not to mention they never gave the ball to Bell once the rest of the season after the PSU game.

Now you are on my page lol, since the guy calling plays was also beck. No track record of success with QBs, our QBs both seemed to regress. Our complaints seem to mirror those he saw at Nebraska. I dont need to see another year to pull that plug.

Lets face up to it..........we all knew it was going to be a challenge for the Buckeyes to repeat as a N/C contender. We all knew it was going to be a war against the last two games on the schedule. And you all knew that losing Tom Herman was huge. Lets quit crying over spilled milk and move on. There is always next year.
And we all know we have a team who has enough talent right now to be sitting where Clemson, Bama, MSU, and Oklahoma are. But for some reason we aren't there. That reason being regression from QBs and a complete joke of an offensive game plan/showing against MSU.

No argument with you on that post. My question is, would we have been different in the MSU game, if Urban would have sent Warriner along with Beck up in the booth? Maybe I am reaching here a little with that one. Just sayin.

Ya know, we can all guess as to what the root of the cause is / was. I have my opinion and others either agree with me or they don't. But, my opinion or guesses as to the problem are just that.

What I do know, however, is that the week after MSU I didn't see ANYONE on the field standing up and saying that they supported Beck... unlike the second guy who was sent up to the booth for the TSUN game. The things said and unsaid that week by the players, admittedly during a week that followed a huge letdown, spoke volumes. The omission of vocal support for the guy when there were some players running to get in front of a mic to support EW tells me a lot.

To that end, I suspect that EW being moved to the booth by Urb and things said and not said by players that week suggest, to me at least, that there was a lot of problems brewing prior to MSU... and MSU was the boil being lanced.

And you don't remember how the 2014 offense struggled in it's early stages? Or how Alabama had the ball close to midfield with a buck thirty on the clock with a chance to tie or win the game? Or how the offense put the ball on the ground four times against Oregon? This offense had many of the same problems that the previous team had and like the previous team they went 11 - 1. The difference being when the 1 game was lost and to whom.

While you're at it, check out your use of personal pronouns and note the subtle shift from 'we' and 'our' to 'they.' Are you somehow officially connected to the team?
Ha I wish.

Are we going to keep crying about how we only scored 20 against NIU? Guess what Mili....they won! Yes, news flash....we all agree that was a pretty bad offensive game for us. You will be the first to hand Eastern Michigan an award for scoring more points than we did because all things are equal apparently.
News flash....having yet another shitty offensive performance, albeit against a solid defense in bad weather, cost us a spot in the playoffs. The last time I recall us having 132 yards of offense or less was when we got shellacked by Florida in the BCSCG. When the offense is bad, the one most responsible is the OC...

The one test? So when we faced the mighty Michigan defense and tore that up, now we are pretending they weren't good?

All the 3 and outs....dude, it was a 12 game season....what do you expect? No 3 and outs?!

Our passing/interceptions - the QB shuffle, the suspension, the coordinator change....by all measures once the move to JT was made and we stuck with him the offense took off even more. Some of you just have such unreasonable expections, just 50 points every game every year....nothing will satisfy outside of 30 point thrashings against every team, non stop. We had the largest bullseye on our backs and went 11-1, that with all the drama, suspensions, injuries that completely removed what, 3 WR starters?

Noah Brown, Corey Smith, Dontre Wilson, Parris Campbell, Johnnie Dixon......that's a complete depletion of our WR corps.
Mi has not stopped a mobile QB in ten years.
Look you know that the play calling and the QB play went from great to very average with a team that should have been very good. Sure they can struggle early but it just didn't seem right, something was missing. I am sure Meter mishandled some things and I am sure he had a big say in how conservative we played against MSU , but I just don't feel the QB development was there and a change needs to happen. For recruiting, there is the matter of perception they have to undo now. Fresh blood with someone exciting would go a long way. I guarantee you they are waiting to see what direction we go.
