So, how we feeling about this staff?

[18IsTheMan]

Beamer, obviously is good.
Same for White.
I was pretty unsettled about Loggains, but seeing how the offense has improved as Lanorris has developed has been encouraging.
Still think we can get an upgrade on Teasley.
Furrey seems to have done a decent enough job...WRs are coming around. Nyck has shown some flashes recently.
Hard to saw with Blackwell. Sanders is obviously a stud, so will have to see what he does with some of our own talent.

Just my observations : I'd like to see a massive upgrade at OC in the offseason. Reason I say 'massive' is because if we can get a huge OC improvement, we should go for it....... but if it's going to be only a slight upgrade, it can be regressive and not worth it.

2 things I really would like to see is the implementation of Sweeps to the WR's and also some quick slants. I don't think I've seen one of either of those this season. Quick slants draws the D up and thus makes it easier for speed (Harbor) to get deep and be open.

Sweeps are just extensions of the run game and we seem to favor the run game so..... it just makes sense + getting the ball into your playmakers hands. Other than that .... carry on..... not much to gripe about really.

Agreed, OC could use an upgrade. Too early to discuss, but wondering if we keep the D staff intact.

Unless we hit the portal HARD this offseason, the O is going to have to carry us.

I've been very pleased with the offense. It's improved by leaps and bounds as the season progressed. We're averaging 30.6 points/game so far with a first year starter at QB and no proven receivers. We averaged 32 points/game in 2022, as a comparison, and that is partially skewed by the Tennessee explosion. I think the offense is on the right track.

You’re telling me you want Dowell Loggains replaced? Come on guys, he’s developed our young offensive talent so well this season. Just look at how they have progressed week after week. It’s night and day from the beginning of the season. He's taken an extremely young group of guys and in my opinion has done a better job than most any other coordinator could do.
Another thing to keep in mind is, our offense, like I said, is progressing week after week. No denying that. So, that tells me they are getting more and more comfortable with the playbook etc. Why would we want to take 2 steps back and have our rapidly improving offense have to just throw everything away they learned this season, just to do it all over again with a new OC and scheme next season. If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it!!

I’m on Team Dowell Loggains!!

 

[RAtheOLcoach]

If we can hang on to Shula, who I think is most responsible for Sellers improvement, we should. Sellers is making Loggains look good now. We’ve also re-incorporated some Elliot runs which have helped.

 

[LonghornsGamecocks]

I would like to see Shawn Elliott take over the OL, hire a new TE coach to backfill Elliott, and no other changes

 

[KingWard]

Other than Teasley, I feel pretty good. A year from now, I might detest them all. I'll say again: snapshots, situational, changeable.

 

[WAYLONJONES22]

Could not agree more

 

[Sweetwatergolf]

Hopefully we keep the poachers off our DC. Like what he has accomplished.

 

[SouthernBelly]

I’m not 100% certain on anyone other than a change needs to be made on OL.

Otherwise It can be hard to know when talent masks coaching deficiencies or when coaching has to scheme around talent deficiencies. Loggains looked and sounded like a bafoon last season and for a good portion of this season. Is he really improving or is Sellers becoming a stud?

Coming into the season not sure I would have missed Clayton White. Kinnard and Stewart have revolutionized the way the whole defense can play. Is White a good DC who lacked enough players or is the talent level making up for him?

But at this rate you don’t make any changes as an HC other than OL. But alot remains to be seen on how this staff, assuming it remains in tact, on if they can keep things going.
