I guess LittreLL was distracted by job hunting today.
Talk about a game of two different halves. NT scores 28 unanswered and then ODU goes on a 34-3 run.
Yeah, weird deal. I watched the first half to see what the "chatter" was about.
The offense was fun to watch, lots of different sets, lots of motion, multiple players got the ball, etc. I noticed that the QB run game was very limited. All of the skill players seemed to be juniors and sophomores, an indication of LittreLL's recruiting. Additionally, the announcers commented that the Mean Green only have thrown two interceptions. My initial reaction was that Skylar would be a great fit, but maybe not Delton.
The defense looked concerning to me. It looked like an odd 3-4/ 3-3 stack / 4-2 hybrid and I had Cosh and Tibesar flashbacks. Apparently it has been working for them, but I was a little underwhelmed. I don't think the type of defense is very important, however, it seems like the type of athlete (and nose tackle) required to pull off a 3 down-lineman set are hard for KSU to find, but that's just a personal opinion.
The talent seemed to be at average CSUA level, which given the poor 2014-2015 seasons I am sure the talent buildup will take awhile for LittreLL. Most of the play makers on offense and defense were players LittreLL would have recruited (eg juniors or less).
Since I just watched one half, I don't have any real thoughts but it does seem like LittreLL is a hot commodity with some good coaching success. I am still hopeful that the 1% chance of the Venables boat comes to KSU's port, but no hire is a sure-fire thing.
