  I hope we do. I have dreams at night about Wilson occasionally running the option with Micah or Money as the pitch man. That would go a long way towards keeping the defense from teeing off on our interior run game.

  Love the sense of humor! Seems like a nice guy and he reminds me a lot of Andy.

  Trolling on your own board Tony?! I had to watch the video to make sure that was said with a smile and a laugh (which it was).

  At least it would be a change in philosophy! Hopefully him hoping about it means some things will be different.

  At least we’ll find out if Ludwig is the problem. The players seemed to have lost confidence in the offense. Now playing for pride instead of championship.

    And NFL scouts are always watching. 5 games left to show your stuff.

    The only way we answer that question is if the offense performs better. If it performs the same or worse, we still don’t know if he was the problem or not (not until next year when our new OC has had time to install things).

  Whatever, can’t possibly get worse.

  I wouldn’t be opposed to seeing some two back sets, put Parks, Kuithe, Vincent, Stanley back there and run some plays. Bernard blocks for Stanley to run the wheel route, Stanley/Kuithe/Parks motions out for a pass in the flats/Bernard blocks, or Bernard gets less run blitz. Anything to have options instead of formation A means a run up the middle, formation B means a pass to the TE, formation C means a pass to the WR.
  
  Multiple option sets would allow for IW to possibly have more time and put the defense in the position to read then react rather than know exactly what to do to stop the play.

    TCU used the three back sets pretty well, even though it went to the same guy and side of the field, it’s what they used to seal the game.

  It is good to know we are still laughing about this offense. About the only positive from this cluster of a situation.

  Well, if nothing else he nailed that media availability session. I liked his sense of humor. Hopefully things start trending in the right direction for the offense.

  There are five games left. The new OC has five games to prove if he’s worth it, and even then, that might not be enough time to fairly judge his entire body of work. If maybe, just maybe he happens to surprisingly turn the Utah offense around completely and have them playing up to their full potential, then maybe it gives Utah a lot to think about bowl season and next season. We will see, only time will tell.
