Changing out Schramm is exactly what we’ve needed all along. Cain is one of the most accurate and productive QB’s in the conference. Is he the most amazing QB in the world? No, but I think it was a huge mistake to pull Wynn’s redshirt off before even trying out Cain with Roderick. What if Cain had been able to move the offense just as well as Wynn did or better? We’d still have Wynn for an extra year but now, all that’s ruined and who knows what could have been if we had played Wynn from the beginning?!

Didn’t Whittingham state that this was the original plan prior to Roderick going to Washington?

( Wasn’t there a receiver that turned Washington down to come to Utah at that time? hmmmm…. )

The timing of this change allowed us to have a game and a half to prepare for TCU, who will now be guessing as to what they are going to see offensively.

Heck, they might be guessing at halftime who will be calling the plays for the second half while trying to make there adjustments.

As it is, it sounds like Schramm’s passion is needed on the sidelines to restore order to the offense. There are strong reasons to call plays from upstairs, away from the passion of the game.

As the OC, it will remain Schramm’s job to make the calls in tough spots (do we go for it on fourth and goal at the 1?)

As long as Schramm is content with this arrangement I think it will be better for the team this way. I believe the entire staff is professional enough that it will be handled properly in any event. I might question whether Schramm would want to stay as it appears he might have to agree to become a co-coordinator next year if he chooses to stay.

and we let cain throw a long pass? whoever made that decision, it probably cost us overtime. we need an oc who can run the spread offense. i want more slants in the playbook. i want more jailhouse break screen passes. whittingham says he still talks to urban. what are they talking about. probably too much about defense. i won’t complain much b/c we are 7-1 and have had some injuries but come on whit. let’s bring the wr’s more into the play calling. we have not reached 40 points all season. peace.

I think its a good move, in so far that the playbook is opened up a bit more now. If the true reason we start seeing more plays is because Wynn has the mental fortitude and acumen to handle it moreso than Cain, than all the better. But I personally think that Roderick can make the ‘on-the-fly’ adjustments better than Schramm, or even Ludwig.

It seems like our offense needs that extra kick in the pants sometimes, and Schramm being on the field provides that.

I voted that its too-soon to tell, but I am hoping for a break out game (ok…I’m actually YEARNING for it…) against NM. I want a godly amount of offensive stats…something like 700 passing yards, and 7 different players getting TDs…including a tackle eligble…or something like that.

Perfect timing too, I think I can call the plays and we would beat New Mexico
