The only way I see the Davis hire as a good hire is...
  • He gets limited time with his guys and they are very discipline.
  • He fucking runs the ball. If you have him as run the ball guy in the OC. Frost can help scheme up the passing game. Maybe that will help us from shitting our pants when the game is on the line.
  • Option offense would be elevated.

Now of course that isn't a very sexy hire, but I can see the appeal.

I am not worried about the scheme. I want the guy who can basically be the offset to Frost. Somebody who can help raise the floor of this offense. Frost is one of the best X's and O's offensive minds in the conference.
 
That makes sense. This morning in that interview he really wanted to make the case for Davis in a way you probably wouldn't feel compelled to do if you thought he was the choice.

Davis has had some support from the people around Frost. I just get the sense that Frost isn’t as in love with him as some around him are.
 
Would be bowling...at the very least.
I mean if we get greedy and get top 40...

Red Zone offense is fixed because we were #1 in the B1G in TD% in conference play...We went 4/9 on FGs inside the red zone. Hit the say 4 more FGs and we jump to 3rd/4th in scoring % in conference play.

You probably dont have the punt blocked vs Cockeye

You probably win MSU by double digits and that could be a momentum win. Think about all the field position we lost in net punting and then of course the return.

Do you give up a kickoff vs Wiscy? Do you maybe kick FGs on those 2 empty trips? Either of those puts you in a spot for a game winning FG late vs needing a TD to tie.

It is incredible how bad we were.
 
I believe him when he says he doesn’t want to make wholesale changes
I thought we were moving towards more of a balanced spread offense when we signed Haarberg and then got a commitment from Torres, both of whom seem like more pro style QBs, which would suggest a guy like Harrell.

But then we started running the option stuff this year, and Frost mentioned he wants to run the option more, and his offense here has always been QB centric, plus the Coast Carolina meeting, which might suggest he is moving in the direction of a guy like Davis.
 
I can't tell what is real and what is sarcasm in this thread.

Korn, Davis, Gill would all be terrible hires.

Frost needs a plug and play top level OC. He doesn't have the luxury of time to get things smoothed out.


I love how my joke about 2 OL coaches isn’t the craziest post ITT


I also love how I can reply with “Run the Damn ball!” to like 80% of the posts ITT
 
I think that's true about the media but I heard Damon pushing the Davis idea in an interview with McKeown, who wasn't having it, so that gives you different media data points. Made me think they both know it's not going to be Davis and Damon wanted to go on record with why he would have been a good idea.
That is fair. I listened to that this afternoon.

My opinion means nothing but we hired sexy 4 years ago. Gimme discipline, reliable, execution now
