Lubick to leave?

I agree with your sentiment,  but not completely fair on depth concerns. He had 3 x 4* recruits in the same QB room.  Guys leave, and the timing doesnt help. A month ago we had QB depth.  We had a full stable of young, highly recruited RB too. Guys dont want to be buried on depth chart....so they leave. The RB room had numbers just weeks ago. Now,  why haven't they played is a diff question. He has brought in depth at oline, WR....at one time all rooms looked healthy. This day and age is different.  Kids wont bide their time, especially if you aren't winning.

We should and will wait, at least 2 more years, to determine whether this experiment works.  The trend line is not a positive one right now, but perhaps in Year 4 or 5 the program will have a breakout, 6 win season.  

I love optimism, but at some point in the next 24 months, we will be unable to deny reality.

Because we haven't had the dynamic playmakers to do that.  Simple as that.

I'd have to do some number crunching on this year's data because the number of games played varied so much.  But in 2019 we were #25 in the county in 20+ yard plays and also #25 in 40+ yard plays.  So the offense can generate a decent amount of chunk plays.  But we didn't have the horses to take them for the huge gains - #73 in 50+ yard plays, #75  in 70+ yard plays.  Although we also had a problem getting the plays we need to move the chains and keep drives alive - #78 in 10+ yard plays.

Soooo....that's why we get penalties.  If we have a play that gets us to the 5 yard line, we need to get penalties to back us up so we space to operate.  The only thing missing is the players aren't understanding that we only do that when we are inside the opponent's 10.

Apologies Captain Literal.  Referring to no depth at skill positions other than TE.  No idea how the season will go.  Defense and QB/TE play will have to carry the O.....Sad statement concerning Frost's bona Fides as an offensive guru. I hope he turns out and shows up next season.  No one wants him to fail.....He just has a lot of baggage to over come form the previous 3 years....

But don't QBs usually carry a team?

Nah.  Some are game managers.  Get the ball to their playmakers and let them do the heavy lifting.  Don't get TO's or make mistakes......AM needs to play like AM 1.0 next year.  I look at Mac Jones from Bama,  Great QB, but he didn't "carry" the team.  he did his job with precision.
