Zach Smith (Official Thread)

2013.

"How bout being the second program ever to put 5 WRs in the pros over a two year span? Two of whom were quarterbacks until Smith got ahold of them?"

This is a chicken or egg riddle.

One might argue how this year with 3 NFL draft picks at WR, our passing game concepts, scheme, trees, route running and production blew goats.
The star of the Senior Bowl should sue for malpractice. We had no clue on how to incorporate him.
I would conceed that the Beck for Herman swap had some impact.

The other fact that your ignoring is that Urban Meyer might be the best WR coach in the game.
That is where he cut his teeth, in fact he was never a coordinator before becoming BG's HC.

I posit he has given Schmails a teachers manual and told him not to deviate, and he also spends a good chunk of time hand holding.
Do you really think Meyer has time to hold Smith's hand?

From page 6 - discussing Smith's twitter battle with Fisch

He's not trying to eloquent

He's responding for the amusement if h.s. kids. I don't like the tactics of putting down others to make yourself look better. I especially think it's a bad strategy when you're attempting to put down the reigning national champs. Austin Mack, a top wr recruit just picked osu over us, so maybe we should just focus on our coaches accomplishments and not worry about osu. After we beat them this November, then we can take some shots.

Interesting discussion.

Zach has his good points and his bad points. So far, the good points are winning out. But in the transient world of CFB coaching, things are always subject to change, and to change quickly.

Bottom line: don't get too enamored of an assistant coach.

Why would Miller sue? He'll get his as a Top 50 pick. Learning how to not fight the ball when it comes at you and body control is a direct reflection of WR coaching. He and Samuel showed a lot of improvement in that area from spring to Bowl season.

I've never heard about Meyer being involved with a position group other than the last year of Everett Withers.

Listen, I'm off to a high-end happy hour.

I will end by saying I'm sure Urban dedicates time to the WR room.
It's his wheelhouse.
He is a master at the position.
Great HC's have the ability to trouble shoot.

Are any of you put off by Zach's comportment?
"Listen?" Bitch please, I've been both a WR and HC before. I even used Urb's ND WR tape and I know how good he is. Don't just come around here and shoot your mouth off and dismissively answer legitimate questions. Go back to Bucknuts.

which came first

- cjimmy putting asterisks next to the OSU WR development because Zach didn't recruit them

-cjimmy bizarrely complaining about the lack of wr development under Zach

Bonus egg: cjimmy mangling any topic to rehash his obsession with alleged convention snubs

so the WRs were really good and the scheme was awful ? Stellar rebuttal of your own drivel, as Zach is so far down the totem pole with the scheme.

if urban is the wideout cat's pajamas, then maybe it's beneficial to employ a guy that is killing it in recruiting. And no, guys like Grimes, Victor and Mack were not beating down the door of OSU in the past 15 years unless they were born with ties to OSU.

Hand holding you has only yielded extra lolz.

I'd respond to this high end happy hour business, but, I really shouldn't be posting from my Aston Martin in the first place.
You still have to drive? How quaint.

I'm just glad cjimmy is beginning to come clean. First he admits how good the receivers were and now he admits his alcohol and affluenza struggles are real. That's only way to heal.
