possibly. This is heart-breaking to say the least and more so since DJ had some problems with executing it too.

Since stopping using it as much last 2 weeks Tigers have looked much more formative and successful which has helped the Line, RB, TE & QB perform better & succeed..thus 2 straight wins.

Note: I learned this from a David Hood post!

Saying, I’m not a coaching genius but I know success when I see it. LOL~

What is heartbreaking is that it took our coaches over half a season to realize we could not run it and modify the offense to something we could execute.

Cade actually shares three of DJ's deficiencies.

Neither could run the RPO, hit a latterly moving target or keep his eyes off his primary after the snap.

After the ND game I claimed Cade had turned the corner because of the three (perhaps 4) times he nailed crossing receivers without or barely without breaking the strides and the many times he was able to look off the opponents secondary and LBs.

I didn't notice the RPO being called or run Saturday. The coaches reduced the RPO calls for DJ until they eventually quit calling it altogether. DJ continued to stare down his primary and the only passes in or just behind the LB position were to stationary targets. I suspect he's still doing that but I just don't care enough about him or his new school to look.

Cade has put two of those three deficiencies behind him and look what we did to GT. I'm not predicting when he masters the RPO but I believe he can do it. Cade will be a much better QB than DJ.

I agree those issues cost us the three games but only when coupled with the fumbles.
