It is really surprising to see the issue of the offense being primarily linked to recruits from 3-4 years ago.</div>

I can understand the O-Line having issues following some sudden events. This was coming and most of us discussed this.</div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);" class="elementToProof">
We did not have a good O-Line last year either but got saved by the brilliance of one man, Tyler Linderbaum.</div>

The O-Line genius/guru had enough time to correct it or at least improve the situation.</div>

That did not happen. If Barnett is not good enough, then KFz could have taken a more active role there (I do not know if he did or did not).</div>

During the last few minutes of the MI game when we went into rush mode we did well.</div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);" class="elementToProof">
Even during the IL game SP did well when he let the ball go quickly without having to wait for the play to develop.</div>

It is clear to all that the line cannot hold the line for more than 3 seconds. </div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);" class="elementToProof">
Then why design plays that take longer than 3 seconds?</div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);" class="elementToProof">
The coaches are not good enough to change the offensive play list to fit the skillset?</div>

When it is evident that we cannot get decent rushing yards up the middle why do we keep trying it sooo many times.</div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);" class="elementToProof">
We had a bit more success running outside or when SP threw on the move but then we immediately go back to run of the mill Iowa playbook.</div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);" class="elementToProof">
Not even giving the back and more mobile QB a look in is outrageous. If he was good enough to start a few games last year then he should be good enough for a few plays every game.</div>

Anyway you look at it, it is the fault of the coaches, be it recruiting, coaching, development, play books etc.</div>

I never played the game, so, what do I know?</div>
