There was an article from Lou about the missed quarterbacks in recruiting. Why would a quarterback of any note want to go to NU? We won the last years due to the defense. We supposedly have this super offensive line coach. We gave up four straight sacks today. This was when my group decided to leave and go to El Jardins. Some simple stats give some a clear picture.
Year Offensive Scoring Rank out of 130 Defensive Scoring Rank out of 130 Total Wins
2016 87th 24th 7
2017 57th 20th 10
2018 100th 41st 9
2019 126th 43rd 3
2020 93rd 5th 10
2021 124th 73rd 3
Three out of the last four years, we 100 or worse nationally in scoring. Last year, the wonderful offensive coordinator got us to 93rd in scoring. Some conclusions/opinions to reach from the stats:
1) Coach Anderson started as quality control in 2018. He has been offensive line coach since January 19, 2019. Has he been effective?
2) Last year, was it Coach B or our transfer? Sorry, I go with the transfer who was trained elsewhere and not by by him. Two years--93rd and 124.
3) It is clear that Coach H was responsible for our wins. Nothing much was asked of our offense.
4) If you are not going to score or attempt to do so and show no want to be a productive offense, why would any competent QB come here. These kids and their parents are not stupid. Why go to a school which will not put your skills to use? The football is god awful boring. Nothing is coming in and nothing is developed.
5) Why would anyone have confidence in Fitz's decision making abilities? His last three hires are Anderson, Coach B, and JON. Are there improvements in the offensive line? Are there improvements in the offense? How does that defense look?
Frankly, unless there is a dynamic change in what we do offensively, we are in trouble. It will be very hard replicate the defense of Coach H. The offense has to now become an active participant. This means a total change in conditioning, strength training, and in every aspect of the offense starting now.
