I said this the day Norm Chow got hired probably here or the other forum...I hate it. His offense is antiquated and is called a pro set for a reason: you need pro players.
Pretty easy to look good when you have the likes of Carson Palmer, Reggie Bush, Reggie Williams, Mike Williams, Leinart, Steve Smith, Ty Detmer, McMahon, etc, etc to work with....Hawaii will never have that talent, the triple option or run and shoot are the only proven offenses to work here.
Do you guys know what it is like to hear Fresno State Media come on our local radio here and talk about their Run and Shoot??? How their HC hated June Jone's run and shoot so much that he swore he would implement it when he becomes HC? How Fresno is putting 50 on us like we used to put on them? How Fresno fans are more excited than they have ever been and are talking undefeated season????
We also had probably the best young run and shoot disciple out there and previous June Junes QB Nick Rolovich on our staff under McMackin. Where is he now? Nevada, and guess what? They now have a run and shoot variation with a TOP 25 offense.
Where is the best young DC in the nation now? Arranda? Wisconsin, after he did a hell of a job at Utah State last year..... Hawaii let the two best young coordinators go, wtf??????
What about Utah State? Now they have the fugging spread as well.....
So three teams Hawaii has killed for a decade adopts Hawaii's offense, and what does Hawaii do? Go back to their crap offenses that doesn't work......geeeeeeezus fugging chcdkasj........
Oh, sorry, we are capping the USC game........this isn't a rant thread......
Hawaii and their Ohio State QB are "supposed" to air it out this year.......I don't care how big of an arm this guy has, you can't throw without an offensive line. Early word is the defense has been killing the offense.
By all accounts, Hawaii is vastly improved over last year, which isn't saying much when you see our only wins were over Lamar, Southwest Northern Central Alabama, and UNLV.....
I am very high on USC, and would be shocked if Hawaii stays within 4 Tds of them.....
Personally, I am laying the wood....
