Thank God for the internet.
Maryland's offense outperformed us by almost every offensive metric except rushing yards per game in 2021. Lil bro Tua threw for 3860 yards (sorry not quite 4,000, how embarrassing for him)
Keep in mind this was a program that hadn't even been to a bowl since 2016. They averaged over 200 yards per game both on the ground and through the air. They set a school record for passing yards in a season, then broke the school record for most points in a bowl game by scoring 53 in a win that year. All of this in year 1 under Enos. Sound familiar?
quote:Because we had solid run game. Last year, we ranked top 10 in rushing. Maryland ranked 81st.
Something KJ has never done. Even if you want to remove the comparison of the two offenses completely, all you have to do is look at our stats from our most successful season with KJ and see that we averaged less than 100 passing yards per game to realize we've been heavily limited at the QB position for years.

The problem that was run into is so much time & resources had been invested into KJ, plus him being loyal to the school.
Choosing to cut bait on an investment like him would not be easy. The investment in him was a necessity because of lack of quality behind him, then this year we had better quality behind him but so much had already been invested into KJ. He’s our spruce goose.

quote:The problem here is that KJ had probably already been promised his NIL money. I doubt Enos had much say in who the starting QB was, which is ultimately the crux of the issue.
Them maybe both of them should have told K.J that he needed to explore more opportunities and get a quarterback from the portal that can run his offense?

How about scoring? How did that compare?
quote:I find it hilarious that every time the topic of QB play and development is brought up, the rushing game is used as the crutch of the argument.
Last year, we ranked top 10 in rushing. Maryland ranked 81st.
You'd think people would start to see the contradiction there. Yes, we've had a QB that needed to be carried by the rushing attack for 4 years. That's the point.

quote:They didn't average 54 ppg. Do you realize they'd be the top offense in the country?
That's what the last number is. 54 ppg. We averaged 24. They averaged 30 more points per game than we did. They cleared us by more than we totaled.
Check cfbstats.com. Your stats are nowhere near accurate.
quote:Ok? So because they couldn't run the ball for shite and had to pass more, he's a qb whisperer? That's pretty damn dumb. We averaged a yard more per pass last year. Also 70 more yards per game. You suck at this.

Let me say this gain, LESS THAN 100 YARDS PASSING PER GAME
And fwiw, KJ wasn't carried by the run game. He was part of it.

That is one of many things that I don't like about the NIL. They are like NFL contracts, you can't get rid of them because you owe them all this money. So you ride them out as much as you can when you know someone else is better and paid far less. It's a damned scam.

Already fixed that, looked at the wrong column.

Sure. He's been fired twice. His job is to score points and he couldn't do that. You disagree? But hey, keep telling about "Tua's little brother".

Sure. He's been fired twice.
quote:You do realize this whole conversation was about your disagreeing with Enos as a QB developer right? Bringing up the last QB he developed before KJ is quite literally the most relevant thing to this topic, but you know you don't have an argument so it's deflect about the offense as a whole and talk about the rushing game.

You got caught fudging or misreading stats already. I'd quit at this point.
