What happened to this vaunted Offense we all heard about in the off season?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but we really never heard much about BV during Spring and Fall camps. It seems there was a reason.Yeah. Many were saying the wall was back, BVG was the real deal, etc. he isn’t a good QB and the line can’t protect him. Irrational exuberance every single year. Some of the issues are in the line- but not all of them.
Sorry- I saw some analysis in the HOB when he signed with us.Correct me if I'm wrong, but we really never heard much about BV during Spring and Fall camps. It seems there was a reason.
You will see it against non SEC opponentsWhat happened to this vaunted Offense we all heard about in the off season?
Doubtful we beat auburn or louisville. That is 8 losses. Vanderbilt will be a coin flip.Conservative coaching, poor OLine play and overrated receivers. It’s not changing anytime soon.
I expect blowouts against Ole Miss, Tennessee and Texas. So there’s 5 losses.
I predicted 6-6 year and I’m having trouble seeing where the wins are going to come from.
Next year will be the same unless there is a coaching change.
Yes, clearly there was hype when he signed, no question. It was exciting and promising.Sorry- I saw some analysis in the HOB when he signed with us.
The consensus on the HOB- preseason was over 2300 yards passing. He is on pace for 1,200. It’s impacted by SCar and UG for sure- but he won’t touch 2,000 imoYes, clearly there was hype when he signed, no question. It was exciting and promising.
I'm referring to what we heard after he was here and training began in Spring and Fall camps. We heard very little.
You are probably correct.The consensus on the HOB- preseason was over 2300 yards passing. He is on pace for 1,200. It’s impacted by SCar and UG for sure- but he won’t touch 2,000 imo
Who were you talking to? Our QB was a total unknown. Never started a game. That always had me worried. But who would have guessed the line had such problems? I did like the receivers though. Still doWhat happened to this vaunted Offense we all heard about in the off season?
Leary was a fifth-year senior with 38 starts at NC State and a former preseason pick as ACC player of the year before an injury scuttled that season. Vandagriff only had mop up minutes at Georgia and never started a game in college before this season. IMO it is unrealistic to expect him to be a polished and efficient SEC quarterback at this point in his career.You are probably correct.
BV's passing stats will probably be unimpressive and may be last in the conference. He can improve, though.
Leary, who received a lot of criticism here, was 2,746 YDS, 56.3%, 25 TD, 12 INT last year ... fwiw.
poor OLine play
I thought about that last night. There never was much excitement or big news put out about him in the off season which I found odd. I think we know why now.Correct me if I'm wrong, but we really never heard much about BV during Spring and Fall camps. It seems there was a reason.
IMO… Stoops doesn’t have the will to win and he doesn’t have a fear of losing.You have the number 1 team on the ropes. You make no effort for a play before halftime and then punt it with 3 minutes left in the game at midfield. Terrible in game decisions. No killer instinct. No will to take risks.
Iowa football at UK from the 80s. That's who he is.
Leary had an offensive coordinator that was good enough to have the same job in the NFL. Everyone knew that Coen was a guy moving to the top. The guy we have now has seen every one of his previous stops improve on that side of the ball after he left.You are probably correct.
