Anyone familiar with the Staley team? Do they not have any receivers? I just took a look at Hosick's numbers and he rarely breaks 200 yards passing in a game and typically he gains more running than throwing the ball. I know Gabbert's high school numbers didn't light the world on fire either but he's playing on Sundays (barely). Just curious what the story was on the numbers.

This isn't going to answer your question, all I know is Hosick had a great running back his junior year. In his interviews it sounded like they weren't going to be able to rely on the run this year as much and he'd be passing more, but maybe that changed. My guess is they run a pretty conservative offense that relies on running. I'm also pretty sure the knock on him is his passing..

Staley's offense is run, run, then run some more. Hosicks numbers are a product of that. This is why we didn't offer his a scholarship until he visited and did passing drills for the staff.
