re: Mullen offers the 1833rd Player in the Country

I mean, we had excellent defenses and the like -- but the moment he left our offense completely fell apart.

I know UGA fans don't know anything about championships, but you have to score points to win and the moment we got Adazzio it was all over.

Addazio tried to power run with Demps and Rainey...the HB dive was his favorite play call with 180 pound backs. Freaking hate him.

Brilliant Oline coach and recruiter...absolute nightmare as an OC. He just didn't know the system and how to make it function. Even 2009 our offense was blah. The players hated it too from their own accounts.

Because like I literally just said. Lamar was a 90 percent CB to FSU, he took him and now the kid isn't even visiting FSU.

Lulz. Also Ohio state took a QB before Jones flipped because he was taking so many visits. They expected to happen.

The offense was not the same as 08 and 09, thus further proving you aren't a Gator fan. Remember in 08 we blew out most opponents, and so the fourth quarter was mainly running the clock out.

2008
15-25 pass/comp - 213 yards - 30 TD's
38 rushing attempts - 231 yards - 41 TD's

Big difference was close games. Close games we had a balanced attack. When you are up 40 at half time, you slow down the pace and stay on the ground. Basic football.


17-26 passing - 236 yards - 21 TD's
Rushing - 40 rushes per game - 220 yards - 30 TD's

So the stats tell the whole story. We ran more plays, and for less TD's. 2008 we blew out over half our opponents before the third quarter was over.

71 TD's compared to 51. The offenses weren't equal. Claiming so tells me you never watched either team, and just looked at stats to argue without remembering the dramatic differences in the performance of the teams. Go watch the fourth quarter of Tenn, USCe, Georgia, LSU, Hawaii etc. We threw infrequently. Where as in 2009, we had to throw all four quarters in a lot of games. We ran a balanced offense in 2008 till the leads were secured. Then went run heavy.

If you think 09 and 08 were the same level of offenses...you didn't watch a single game. So..go back to the FSU board's bro. Shits weak.

You can't talk about this kind of stuff with TJ because he doesn't actually look at stats in depth.

Then there are others that said it was all Meyer, but it's quaint that after Mullen left Meyer immediately fell to pieces on offense and we, ten years later, have never been the same.

Fact of the matter is: Without Mullen, we would have never won those championships, and it was incredibly obvious how much he had to do with the offense after he left in 2008.

Just for a point of reference:

We had two games where we scored less than 30 in 2008.

In 2009 we had 7 games where we scored less than 30.

Two of those games were less than 20.

People read my comment just on one line alone, but there is a clear and defined drop-off in points scored as soon as Mullen left. Not only that, we didn't have as many yards because we literally had our second stringers playing in the third quarter of a few games and almost all had our second stringers in the fourth quarter in 2008.

I agree that Mullen had an impact.
But you are missing a few other key differences between 2008 and 2009.

First off... Percy Harvey.

Second... Your defense. You had 35 takeaways in 2008. Only 23 in 2009. That's huge for field position and momentum.

You said Mullen made Meyer. You are retarded. Meyer has won over 100 games without Mullen as an OC. 4 Conference titles and a NC. Mullen wished he could be like Meyer. He's not an elite recruiter or coach. Meyer would've never lost to South Alabama in year 8. The offense didn't fall to pieces until Meyer quit being there mentally. That 09 offense took a step back because we couldn't replace Percy.

How many total yards and TDs did harvin have? I'll save your dumbass from looking like an idiot:

Ark: 9-74-1
LSU: 8-125-2
UK: 3-55-2
UGA: 7-89-2
VU: 12-92-1
SCAR: 9-173-2
Cit: 5-125-1
FSU: 6-13-1
Total:59-746-12
Avg: 7.49-93.25-1.5
Percy was the reason why that offense was insane.
Chip. Kelly. Is. Coming. To UF.

As an OC they're the same. Lulz. An OC doesn't make a great HC more at 11. Your argument was blown out OF the water by harvin not being here. Melt on..

You want to gloss over 12 turnovers like that alone doesn't almost define an offense. Thats fine.
