O’Brien was a transfer.

Skattebo enhanced his profile at ASU and got paid for the pleasure. Backs only have so many reps in the body and Lan should be done with the free ones IMO.

They did a marginally better job the last couple weeks staying away from most of the things where MH really struggles. That zone read without the read is still crazy as is that roll out. They either need to find some receivers and commit to the wide spread pass game or move on to another QB.

He’s increased the degree of difficulty for his QB, who has a pretty limited skill set.

We have three years of evidence showing that the one thing Hastings does reasonably well is the mid range pass game with anticipation. Cody Hawkins spread things out and gave him some wide open lanes, which don’t require pinpoint accuracy. The plan this year has just been odd and there have been no adjustments. Personnel use on O is also really strange.

Hastings’ development has been perplexing. Someone brought up the Randy Wright comp, which seems apt. Will say though, the changes to the offense really accentuate all of the things that Hastings struggles with. Asking an immobile qb to run so much mesh and read-RPO is a curious strategy.
