While the overall consistent success for 4 quarters isn’t there, he is doing things differently than previous seasons:
-Not settling when in FG range
-Lot of passing against an inferior team to practice and get Nix game reps
-Tried to settle on a RB before the 3rd or 4th game
-QB was settled before game 1
-Actually admitted play calling mistakes (i.e. not giving Nix easier plays to start the Oregon game)

What say you haters?

Inside zone after a first down is his go to.

Joiner runs only wheel routes.

Gus is predictable.

I hope he is just putting very few plays on tape and will surprise the tougher competition with some more diverse calls.

Gus called a good screen pass last week. Bo missed an open Hastings streaking down the sideline.

I hope we win every game, but thus far play calling has been vanillla.

Both of those were mistakes. Put them on the field. Let their actually game film decide who should start, instead of limited live action in practice.

I’m not panicky like many of the others. I am concerned about OL, RB, Injuries.
