He had a 1,200 yd rusher with a 5.1 ypc average last season. He’s pretty balanced.


Whether it's simply due to the personnel he's had or their actual philosophy, there's no way to pretend a DeBoer team has ever been balanced.

At least not in FBS.

Who cares? Win games. Isnt that what youre paid to do?

Personally, I wouldnt gaf if we ran the triple option as long as we won

Ppl get caught up in the old thinking that the term "balanced" means you run as much as you pass to keep the defense from loading up either way. Leach was the guy who came out and said Balance is making the defense defend the entire field, that can be done by distributing the ball among all of your wrs and running when the numbers are there to do so.

“Balanced” doesn’t mean what it meant even 10-15 years ago. If your offense is 65% pass 35% run you are considered balanced.
