Is it scheme or play calling?

You're not wrong on any of this, I just think it's very telling that our coaches thought playing Austin Allen in the slot on almost 75 percent of our plays was the best thing for our offense. We also basically spent zero time in 10 personnel in the back half of the season, which is a huge departure from Oregon and UCF. I just think it's pretty clear from rewatching stuff that outside of Wandale we just didn't have a Big Ten-caliber receiving corps. I think that can change with the Omar and Toure additions and with the Betts-Brown-Nixon trio learning the playbook, but we didn't have it last year.
The 10 personnel is probably the most telling. Especially with a guy like Wan'dale out there. That's like the bread and butter when this offense is really humming. If you can't run 10 personnel with a guy like him, your receiving corp is no bueno.
