[QUOTE="BrewingFrog, post: 2812528, member: 28"] Let's consider for just a second: 1.) O-line for 2019 wasn't very good to start with, and proceeded downhill. By season's end, they were lost, blocking thin air or saying "Ole'!" as defenders sped past. How will this unit be brought up to a workable speed and coherence? How deep will we be at each position? Will a single injury doom the whole unit? 2.) D-line for 2019 was touted as "possibly the best at TCU" during 2-a-days, they certainly weren't on the field in actual games. We have some returning guys for 2020, we have some promising underclassmen. 3.) WR. Ugh. Can't catch. Can't run patterns. Can't (or won't) block. Easily the worst unit on the team. There has to be improvement here because, in all honesty, you can only go up from 2019. I am so proud of Duggan for not just mentally cratering after literally physically hitting receivers (when they deigned to run a discernible pattern) with the ball and seeing them drop it time and time again. For a "passing" offense, the preparation and development of this absolutely integral component has been [I]abysmal[/I]. The responsible parties should be publicly executed, with heads displayed on pikes. 4.) RB. Is there anything in the cupboard? 5.) LB and DB. Good, with the occasional hiccup. 6.) QB. I truly hope Max gets some instruction this Spring and Summer by a good professional. Improvement on footwork, vision, mechanics, etc. That way, when Sonny gets back ahold of him, he's at a higher level of ability and the inevitable regression keeps him on an effective plateau. In all honesty, judging by how wretched some personnel groups performed in 2019, we'd be better off having random names pulled from the phone book to come in and coach than the buffoons allegedly employed and paid to do so. Changes must be made. [/QUOTE]
