Daniel Running 27 Times

[Pett]

why do we never run the option anymore?

This is a great question. Snyd's only runs it when Waters is in. Is Daniel that bad of a pitch guy?

why do we never run the option anymore?

I am going under the assumption that we didn’t see the option against OSU because we really didn’t see it (with much success) last year against OSU, iirc.  We had some success with CK running QB sweeps/draws (when he wasn’t getting concussed).

 Against Baylor we didn’t really do much successful – but as I remember it our coaches lost their bladder early after Baylor scored at will and had CK chucking it around and throwing INT’s instead of just running it.  Phil’s going to man up and bring pressure, for the life of me why we can’t throw a RB screen (which we actually did last game) or a trips WR jail break screen is beyond me.  Especially with Sams at QB.

Sams ran several read options vs Texas, he did make a few mistakes in his reads though, so that could be part of it. I think we'll see more as the year goes along.

i'm talking option option, like pitch the ball kind of option though. not the take it or don't take it and then i run option. <------high fball iq post.

Last year vs OSU we ran 15% option. Sams ran 1 in 16 run play calls, Klein ran 6 in 38 run calls when he was in. Klein ran 24 QB lead/power plays and Sams ran 12.

Good question. Sams did run one speed option vs UT, but there was a penalty, otherwise I don't think he's run another one all year.

man, right in their face.  what did sams run against OSU, like 90% qb lead/power?

I'll have that tomorrow, I haven't charted the game yet.

[michigancat]

options (with a pitch) have the highest chance of a TO. I think that's why we've seen less and less of it in Synder 2.0 compared to 1.0.

MPMS (more pitch more schwinn)

This is the one that Rick wants, and I do too!

[Winters]

maybe bill's dementia is kicking in and he thinks Daniel Sams is Daniel Thomas (might answer the 27 carries) 

[WildcatNkilt]

Stud WR Chris Harper was great at blocking on those type of plays.  Our WR's now are just OK.

^First we need that talent before we can do that^

We need WR's that are over 6 foot first of all.

he was the total stud package

As Snyder would say, we will take what the defense gives us. If that means Sams has to run the ball 40 times because he is averaging 5.5 YPC, so be it.

Sams is built to take punishment. Klein was tall, lanky and looked extremely fragile, however, the guy had bull testicles and a tolerance for pain unlike any other.

To dumb this down, no I'm not concerned about Sams running the ball 20+ times at this point in his career or at this point in our season. He's not a pussy and he can handle the load. He's built to juke LBs and smash D-Backs.

I think it was plenty dumb to begin with

[kso_FAN]

Klein was tall, but not lanky or fragile looking. IMHO.

Klein    more like string-bean
