Adam Weber as a freshman was a poor man's Eric Couch. He was a threat to run. I always thought he was an option QB. The coaching staff never saw it or tried it. As a sophmore he was restrained but still able to run. This year, he has been reduced to his least likely strength. Quick recognition and accurate throws. He can do neither. Now everyone couldn't wait for Grey, and the process is taking the same track. He was a dual threat QB. A strong arm, great ball faking, and a running threat. He also is shrinking. He looked his best in the spring game. What a glimpse. You know where this is going. Coach Fisch is a Florida guy. He was there with fun and gun. He saw QB's light up the SEC. He watched, assisted with Danny Wuerffel. Whether it was Wuerfel or Mathews or Rex Grossman. None were dual threats. They were classic pocket passers. Coach Fisch is driving dual threat QB's into a square peg. In doing so they become no threat at all. They become there own worst enemy. They hold the ball too long, steer rather than throw the ball, or wait unable to decide and take the sack. This is a scheme problem.
The second thing that's wrong, is a second threat in the backfield. We have no power backs. No one on the roster can break a tackle, and combined with that no one can break a long run. What a combination. Lamonte Edwards come on down. Without a run threat, think of Juice Williams with Medenhall and without. Think of Northwestern with Noah Herron, or Tryell Sutton and without. For the spread to work you need two viable threats in the backfield. We have none. And we use 4 wide recievers. Why? First, neither Weber nor Grey can decipher a 4 man pattern in under 3 seconds. Maybe a three or two man occasionally? Are we spreading them out to run it? Not very well.
Please coach, go back to the drawing board. Look at the talent, and build a scheme around the talent. If it ends up being a version of the single wing, I don't care. It would be better than the current offense, and mis use of the QB Talent.
