It’s nice to have WRs that can make some tough catches and seldom drop the routine balls.
How quickly we forget that we could be 2-0 if not for a dropped pass in the ISU game......

I like thE WR blocking on the outside. Much improved as well.I suspect Max's improvement has as much, if not more, to do with Meacham's structure of the offense than any instruction Cumbie suddenly decided to provide. We are seeing way less of the receivers running the wrong route and far fewer plays that were the wrong call against the defensive alignment and personnel.
I don’t think Cumbie is to blame for our previous woes. He is a tremendous recruiter and had a true freshman QB last year. He is not responsible for all the insane injuries or transfers at QB. We needed Meachum back for sure, they make a great team. Kill is a tremendous bonus.
I will admit I am bias because Sonny is a friend and really great guy. Word from him this Spring was Max would be a different QB and a bad arse.
3-0 if the smu game hadn't been canceled. And Mad Max was available.How quickly we forget that we could be 2-0 if not for a dropped pass in the ISU game......
Not to be disagreeable, but he developed Boykin and Kenny Hill. And nobody was going to develop SR.We definitely have had other issues, mainly O & D lines, and receivers, but name one QB that Cumbie has developed since he has been here? Our QB play has been atrocious since he has been here other than Boykin, and KHill's senior year.
He is the QB coach, and it's his job to develop those players. Plus being the OC, it is also his job to put his QB's in the best position to win, and to game plan to their strengths. He has yet to prove that he can do either.
He seems to be is a good recruiter and great guy, but we have other "good recruiters" that don't seem to be able to coach their positions on the field. Give me a coach that can develop players, and/or game plan around his players strengths over a good recruiter. That is what made GP's teams successful in the past.
With as many people helping out with the offensive play calling, that that meeting room must look like a small convention.. Overall, it's evident the offensive play calling has improved. Q: did someone read or hear Sonny is no longer calling game day? Max is only going to get better..! We saw yesterday his talent has improved but my heart dances when I think what could do as a senior.. Myohmy!!!
BTW..that kid Kell, another Myohmy. He is one not many teams we play will match up with. He shows Great promise! Recvers ...also greatly improved! Our def line was gassed at times and it showed. GP has to address that immediately. Boy, we package ourselves to death with all of the personnel changes during games. OU will beat the immensely entitled T-sips. And, did I hear the booth boys say, when finished, the UT house will seat the fifth largest stadium crowd in the world>>??? That is aggressive..marketing which makes me say, they will have to hire a Big..Big name coach who can fill that stadium evry Saturday. Do you think UT might be thinking down the road to a super, super conference one day?
Great win boys! SURE helps our confidence in the locker room and it helps this board too. KS won't be easy Sat.
Tired of the knocking on Cumbie. He has a lot to offer, but as mentioned, the team effect has a huge impact Cumbie and Meachum together seems to work on the field at least. Do not know what Kill's impact is yet. There are many coaches that don't always translate well to other situations. See it all the time with coaches transferring for a supposedly better gig when it is often more than just one coach that makes success.

It was public knowledge that SC wasn't calling plays anymore back in the early spring. It amazes me so many people missed that.
Not to be disagreeable, but he developed Boykin and Kenny Hill. And nobody was going to develop SR.
Just my opinion, Kill has already contributed a ton and Meach is the guy for our sideline. But Sonny has done pretty well with what was available and talk of firing him is absolutely insane. Kill, Meach and Sonny together may be unstoppable.
The missed field goal in the first quarter had alot to do with that too.How quickly we forget that we could be 2-0 if not for a dropped pass in the ISU game......
World of difference having Meacham back. Great move by GP bringing him back! Max being a year older doesn’t hurt either - he’s looking allot better. Meach is the difference!
Are you talking about Max's qb draw for the win late 4th? Coach P says Max checked to it. But at least the coaches give Max that latitude.I thought that Meachum called a great game. That call to spread the entire offense for the run up the middle for the TD was brilliant.
Good argument in favor of the Oxford comma.Kill, Meach and Sonny together
I like thE WR blocking on the outside. Much improved as well.
