I'm not a Yost hater at all, but I don't see how this doesn't fall on the coaches. Even if he isn't picking up the offense quickly and he isn't a genius you can still work him into the offense correctly.
Teach him to run a couple routes and then put him in on a few plays where he will run those routes. He doesn't have to stay in for the entire drive. Just tell him to streak down the field and jump real high, if he catches it great, ir not at least the other team will defend against it.
That being said, he will be fine, maybe in a month, maybe next year, but eventually we will all forget his struggles.

He's shown flashes in practice, but it's hard to translate those to the game if your...on..the..sideline. Not every reciever will be open every play. Even the veteran recievers are open all the time, they may think they are but sometimes they can be wrong. If you put DGB out there for say 5 plays a game, that doesn't give him much of a chance to work on getting open. It still comes down to numbers. I think at the beginning of the year they said they would bring him along slowly anyways. Sounds like they're sticking to the plan.
I beleive I seen him open in the endzone last weekend but the ball went about 5 foot over his head. He's tall, but he aint that tall. The throw was late in my opinion. Franklin's timing is in the toilet right now for whatever reason. He plain missed him.
Just for the sake of showing other recruits this is a place where you can come and get on the field quickly, they need to get this kid in the fold however they do it. I remember someone mentioning that other schools would use this agianst Mizzou to get recruits and it makes sense.

The problem with that is our line isn't giving the receivers enough time to get down field half the time.
