score 27 points and actually move the ball against a Michigan defense last year with Mason Graham, Will Johnson, and Kenneth Grant and this year our supposedly better skwad couldn’t do shit?
How did we?
- Thread starter WoolleyDoog
- Start date
I'm being told it's because we are "making progress" in year 2 under Jedd.
I'm personally, not seeing it.
Lest we forget, we beat Michigan last year with Will Rogers at QB.
What exactly is the "progress" this year that we are seeing?

Will Rogers is 1-0 against Michigan while Penix & Demond are 0-2.
Christian Caple is shilling for Jedd a bit, as he is pushing that narrative
I know losing the left side of the line was poison but how bad the running game is makes zero sense and Coleman hasn’t broken a tackle or made anyone miss since UCDavis and is constantly running to the sidelines. Guessing he’s hurt too.
When they roll Williams outside the pocket he has time to go deep and he throws a great deep ball. Buck and Wolve had the outside edge locked down. You keep Williams in the pocket and he's short and throwing it into the face mask of the D line
He will continue to do great against the low life teams and has yet to show that he or his genius coach can scheme against D 1 talent

I wonder if the administration is noticing (or worried about) the Jedd support waning and they need to get some public support out there for him?
I think we could LOSE OUT and nothing would change.
In fact, I think if we go 7-5 this year and 7-5 NEXT year, he'll still be here.
That's how down I am on this situation. I have very little faith that anything will change no matter what happens on the field, barring an Oregon St. type of start to next year or something.
This is like being on an 8 hour flight, and only in hour 2, and realizing you have no choice but to watch the movies they are going to show for the next several hours.
The way things go, I half expect him to suddenly take a different gig.
unless some programs get way better going 7-5 with next years schedule is gtfo time. Almost might be worse if we go like 9-3 still lose to Oregon Beat no one good and we are back to Sark years of perpetual just above average.
No argument here!
I think we bought a questionable product with Jedd.
His one HC gig was AZ and we bought the restoration and 1 year pop he had. There's no shame in that, in my view. With incomplete data, this sometimes happens and we were in a tough spot getting surprise dumped and roster raided by Kalen.
I'm still open to being optimistic if they surprise down the stretch here.
For me that would need to be going 9-3 … would prefer to shock Oregon, but realistically that's a loss, but it needs to be a game in the 4th Q.
If they are truly showing progress, they need to win all the other games.
Kinda racist.gif
We talked year ago about what Jedd's offensive identity is, and here we are a year later.....
A year from today, there is much higher probability than not, that we are having discussions about identity and trajectory of program. Beating the 3 comm. College occ teams and combo of Rutgers, Northwesterns, Purdue, Maryland, Spartys of world every year why not being competitive against the upper echelon of B10 makes you a #jag #mid program

There's zero questions about Jedd's identity on offense at this point. None.
In 2023 it's still pretty vivid where you have Fafita throwing up bombs to McMillian as he's getting killed over and over by Oklahoma rushers and idl.
It's pretty much what he does against equal or better talent: back shoulder fades, play action bombs when the defense knows it's coming, etc.
"NFL passing attack". I don't watch the NFL but the description of the Bengals this year seems about right.

It looks like the coaches watched the USC Michigan tape and didn't think that Michigan's coaches would adjust at all.
One of my "keys to the game" as it were, as that Jedd needed to be innovative with the playcalling vs Michigan. And overall it was very uninspired.

I'm not implying that Christian is being told what to write. Not at all. I just think he is not going to rock the boat and risk the relationships he has built with this business he has created and nurtured to where its at.
