Just lytle’s comments about being multiple and all the different things the offense wants to do

What do you have in mind, specifically?
Honest question.
More north-south running plays and attacking the middle of the field in the passing game. The 2018 offense was overly reliant on explosive plays.

That offense also rode Viska into the ground. Hopefully we see something less predictable.

Haven't Buffs won 3 straight vs ASU? If so, we beat them with Junior and Soph QBs too.

Speaking of UCLA, that 2019 game is Exhibit B of why we don't need to miss Tucker. Terrible loss and effort. AFA Exhibit A. Wazzu C. Zona D....Eff that guy,.

I don't know if we should have expected anything different in 2018 with a defensive minded HC in MacIntyre still here. Hoping and thinking it'll be different now-between Dorrell's offensive background/relationship with Chev and adding a guy with more experience as a play caller than Roper had when he got here in Langsdorf.

Maybe. If he doesn't play at all this year, I think the only reason why is the lack of spring ball. I drew the conclusion from listening to Langsdorf yesterday that that's a big reason why Lewis is running 3rd RN.
Clunkers in year one of a coaching transition are commonplace. Tucker did a very good job in recruiting, but his head coaching chops are still a big unknown. Michigan State took a big risk paying him what they did.

Yes-they are. Fusker Jesus had what........three of them in 2018?
The Wendy’s twitter account certainly was aware of them.
Agree on this. We need to be able to control the ball more and dictate field position if nothing else.
Our defense should be the strength of the team be we are not deep enough to lay it on them without help. Need to give them some time off the field and some long fields to work with. Even a couple of extra first downs in a drive can have a big impact on both of those.
If Lewis doesn't play at all this year, KD should be fired for gross negligence.
I’ve been told Lewis should redshirt this year.
In regards to the offense, Chev is set up a whole lot better than he was in 2018, almost on every level except at QB. Coaching is better as a whole and talent is better across the board as well. You also have a HC and QB coach who have backgrounds in offense and both have had mixed results as offensive coordinators. He will have the support to be successful on the coaching end.
Most forget that the 2018 offense had a Heisman trophy candidate and was top 25 in offensive production in the first 5 games. Obviously, we know the issues with that offense (reliant on one player, talent level poor, and not being able to adjust) as it came crashing down. That offensive line was absolutely putrid because of extremely poor recruiting over the years and I think Chev did as best as he could to scheme around it. I'm not so worried about Chev more so than the QB who will be directing the offense. Chev has proven that he will use the weapons he has. I'm excited to see how they use the TE as that is a position that can open up things in the middle of the field.

I mean, you could, but you'd have as much evidence to support your claim as saying I could be a better college QB than Montez.
I have been told you have a cannon for an arm.
#6 (Arias, I believe) looks ****ing massive
I'm very curious about Clayton at RB but I'm wondering if he will be as delayed as Lewis at QB is going to be thanks to COVID-19. Given that Clayton is from LA, he's most definitely familiar with the Saints' Alvin Kamara and if Clayton can emulate him, that would be a good pass catching threat out of the backfield. I can just dream of those two RB shotgun formations with Clayton and Fontenot lined up. Nixon, Rice, and one more WR/TE lined up and defenses could have to choose their poison.
As for the north-south running game that Duff mentioned, I think Mangham should be that one but we have Stackes but will he need a redshirt season too?
I'm more intrigued by the RB group this season. That group and the OL could lead the Buffs to a bowl game this season.

True story.
Montez was a physically gifted player, much more so than a guy like Lytle.
What we unfortunately found out is that despite his size and big arm Montez was not a leader, was not a guy who rose above challenges. He lacked what people like to call the intangibles.
How is Lytle in those areas? Because he never got to play meaningful snaps we don't know. We know he is a guy who has a desire to play, that already puts him one step ahead of Montez.
Is KD hurt? I haven't noticed him at all in any of the clips put out so far.
I don't believe Montez is more physically gifted than Lytle at all. I think Lytle will surprise everyone once he starts to play. I can almost guarantee Lytle is a smarter QB and has all the physical attributes needed to excel in the PAC.
