Sellers is coming back. No one has thoughts?

I’ll disagree with one thing, he doesn’t need to be re-made, he needs an offense built around his strengths and one that hides his weaknesses. We were trying to force him to be a drop back passer who can go through 4-5 progressions. That’s not who he is. He needs to be taught to cut the field in half pre-snap, and work one side. we need to find ways to put players in space one on one. Need to play basketball on the football field, force DBs to tackle one on one. You can do that in Briles offense. I am looking forward to it.
This makes the most sense to me.

And the kicker, forced Sellers into a offense that was making him drop back and make progressions that had a very weak OL unit up front, what Shula designed all off season made no sense.

I heard Mike Florio the NFL writer who has a show on Siruis Xm, said a famous NFL coach once told him, something that stuck with him, that changing a offense scheme in mid season was like changing a tire on a moving car, its almost impossible, Im sure at the college level its very difficult as well.

Shula doomed Sellers and the offense to failure before the season started, Im also looking forward to Briles implementing something that plays to strength of Sellers, the weakness of the OL and the offense as a whole, and it can be done given Seller's mobility.
