The PATTS response and Beamer vs Fuente


Interesting that the many of the M&O glasses people are even critical of the 4th and 1 call at end of game. Have not seen that much in the past from those previously known as PATT.

For me, it is about being realistic. It will take another two years for Fuente to be running mostly with his people and then we can look at his success or lack thereof. In the meantime, I also was a bit concerned about the play calling.

It would be interesting to compare Beamers success (or lack thereof) to Fuente's given we don't have a big sample size yet from Fuente.

The OL issue was around for many years under Beamer and persists under Fuente.Will Fuente be able to turn it around with his recruits?

Beamer was able to run the ball better due to more focus on that and probably better talent. Fuente has better results passing in general due to his scheme. However, lack of a running game is impacting the passing game too.now. Will this be fixed through recruiting and/or change in scheme?

The D, for the most part, carried Beamers teams until towards the end when recruiting talent dipped and it could not carry the team as much. Now we still have a very good D but it is still very vulnerable to the big play. Will we get better through recruiting??

We used to sweat when Beamer sat on a lead in the 2nd half and now we sweat in the first half when the team often gets off to a slow start.,
