Marcus Satterfield - Who is he?

I'm of the opinion that until a staff comes in and doesn't cater to this idea that Nebraska is somehow special, and we need to do stuff a certain way here to win...I think they fail.

"We need a fullback"

"We need to play this way because of the wind"

"We need to play this way because of the B1G"

Shit's exhausting. Run what the hell you want to run.

Agree wholeheartedly. I wanna burn this bitch to the ground and go full air raid. Holgerson would be perfect.

I’ve got no idea where anyone is getting this idea he’s under no pressure to perform.
Where’s the pressure coming from? The AD he helped place here? The contract that pays him out tens of millions if we fire him? What motivation does he have to make the decisions that don’t make him feel good but are in the best interest of the program?
 
I hate the idea of trying to be multiple like the 49ers. We don't have personnel like that. Nor will we. Why not actually having a system. Maybe have an identity run or two, that actually is consistent. I'd much rather be an 11/12 personnel gun team. That's just my preference.

We pretty much run about 1 run scheme right now. Then in short yardage, we line up and run power and do pretty well. We've ran counter a few times this year with success. Hell, we even ran a couple pin and pulls vs Illinois that popped for 8+ each time. But we never see it again. We just beat our brains in to death running duo...over and over...and over and over again. I'd love to see our YPC running the ball for each scheme they run.

I agree on the difficulty of running multiple. I do wish we could incorporate some (a little) of it though - like my example of a FB/TE type of guy, but we can mostly do that out of tranditonal TE play. But we have a hard enough time running anything well right now... and college football isn't the NFL. Love the Niners offensive scheme though, and love how Shanahan is constantly adjusting it to keep ahead of the defenses adjusting to it.

Totally agree our run game scheme has been stagnant.
 
I think Donnie has done well with the OL. To be truthful, Satt has done “fine” with TEs. Barthel has been “meh” with RBs. McGuire has been awful with WRs and that spot might be the worst coached position on the team. Not sure on Thomas with QBs. I think it’s been “fine.” He’s down my list of priorities.

1) OC
2) Special Teams
3) WRs

Those are my top spots that need changes. McGuire might be a wiz kid. But right now he’s in charge of the worst coached position on the team and I’m not sure I’d be willing to give him the opportunity to learn on the job.
Donnie is absolutely awful and should be right in there being fired with the rest of them and I could give a shit less if Dylan leaves because of it. Where has our line improved since he has coached? Our best lineman was a guy that is no longer playing because he told him to suck his dick. Our line is atrocious and he should probably not be invited to family thanksgiving by the way he is letting his nephew get abused.

As much as I despise Pee Pants....they run a system on offense. They run the ever living shit out of 12 personnel, inside and outside zone from the gun, and just hammer at you, RPO it, and PAP.

Wisky had a system under Fat Bert and Chryst. Power, Counter, Zone Iso, PAP. Shit, they do now under Longo.

Ohio State - 11 personnel, gun run - Inside Zone, Power/Counter.

Rhule under Baylor - 11/12 personnel - IZ, Counter, Draw w/ RPOs off all of it + vertical passing game. We don't resemble that shit at all.

They've improved, especially in their pass pro....but beyond that, there's times you see movement, but they don't do very much in general. If the only run play you run 80%+ of the time is the same scheme....

Exactly, I am so tired of the Rhule, I talked to T.O. and he said the wind and the weather you have to do this and that. Bullshit, everyone still throws the damn ball around in worse weather in Nebraska. Run what works with your talent and do what you want, recruit to what you need. We look completely inept in all aspects of offense

I can’t believe I’m acknowledging this post but here we are.

Pass pro from the OL is absolutely NOT an issue this year and you don’t know what the fuck you’re talking about if you think it’s the case.

Theres been some problems from game to game in blitz recognition and pick up that have led to one off sacks. That has also happened as a result of Dylan being a freshman as well and not picking things up.

What AD did he place here?

Just because you would feel content with money in the bank doesn’t mean he does.

You’re making a baseless accusation and getting mad at the scenario you’ve created in your head.

Dylan makes the oline worse by his inability to read a blitz and by being a slow blinker
 
I agree. I think Raiola has the potential and we have seen glimpses, but I’ve seen plenty of 5 stars not live up to the hype when it’s all said and done. I know Satterfield sucks, but I also think people are prematurely putting their eggs all into one basket thinking Raiola is the savior. Coaching does definitely matter though. A guy like Jared Goff who I’m watching right now is a good example of that.
There was an article that went back and tracked the #1 HS QB recruit each yr from 2000-2020 and it was about a 50% hit rate. Half went on to be AAs or All conference. Other half was mediocre to complete bust.

So Dylan was always gonna be a 50-50 shot.

Nebraska however needed the street cred/boost, also needed to get our own legacy....so it was always a net positive for us. Even if he turned out to be a bust.


But there's no reason to turn the entire program over to a guy who's a 50-50 shot
 
It’s still infuriating that rhule thought Satterfield was a good idea.

There is zero proof that Satterfield has ever been worth a damn as a OC. Rhule not only thought he should be a power 4 OC he should get top 10 money.

This is worse than the Sims decision and that was fucking bad.

You’ve really embarrassed yourself over the last 24 hours. Time to logout and regroup. It’s enough platinum boarding for you for awhile.
You are clueless, they are poor all the way around. The only thing that I will give you is the pass pro is not as bad as our run blocking but that is like polishing a turd. They don't get much help from the backs either but Uncle Donnie needs to go and he should have not been kept on to begin with.

The Sims decision is looking like the tuxedo job interview scene in Step Brothers, where the guy initially overlooks it as weird and quirky and then 5 min later realizes it was the massive red flag he originally thought.

Though TBF Rhule is tied to Sims potentially more than Satt.
