With DK’s performance this afternoon I need to reevaluate my assessment of his QB development skills. DK looked very well coached and accurate with the football. I’m sure it helped UNC was unprepared for a dual threat guy. Let’s hear your thoughts.

 
I don't love the idea of him staying but today's game plan was exceptional and the execution was flawless. My only negative was the silly trick play when we were gashing them with Kevin.

He has a tendency to call those, at least he didn’t call them multiple times.

 
This was a very smart game plan for one game.  Time will tell if this can be duplicated when teams actually prep for it.  We needed the time and these coaches are smart enough to know you can't win dropping Zeb back.  Impressive one game.  Well called other than maybe two plays and well executed aside from a couple as well.  The extra practice time really paid dividends for this game.

 
I know many of you don't like Satterfield, but he won six games and a bowl with a graduate assistant, a transfer from a small school and a wide receiver at quarterback. Let's see how he does with a five star before we pass judgement.

Good point.

I believe Hoganman can drop the mic after that statement. As someone who has also complained about Satt, I just got slapped on the nose with that post. I’ll shut my mouth and watch what happens. 

 
Shane may have brought Noland in because he didn't think both Doty and Brown were not where they needed to be after a certain point.  He could just have been stacking the deck, too.  Doty was obviously limited by his foot injury as well.

We had to play a back-up QB, who had fairly recent knee surgery, in the bowl game because the healthy 3rd string guy decided he just wasn't into it anymore after Rattler decided to transfer here.

Unless my eyes are deceiving me in my old age, Jason Brown's picture is no longer on official roster web page anymore:

Hilinski also hit the portal but is still on the 2020 roster page.

Shane is about accountability and is not going to reward those folks that run out on their responsibility to the team (and him).  That is one of the reasons we are going to get better.

It seemed like Satt was getting ready to work Joyner into the offense about the time Shane brought in Noland and that kept him from working Joyner into the offense more.  Then Noland went down in the UGA game.

I don't know where the dividing line between Shane and Satt is on the whole "Pro-style offense" thing.  Does that mean something like Bridgewater at the Panthers/Broncos or the stupid ineffective crap we all have had to watch the past several years?  Has Shane been part of the problem on offense to a certain degree?

I also don't where the dividing line is between staff and players, either.  However, Shane does.  He also has probably gotten a lot of good advice from Frank as well.

The only thing I will say is it took Satt 3 years to finally get a winning season at Temple with Matt Rhule and that is probably one year too long in the SEC.

I will support whatever Shane does in the coming weeks.  The moon is cheese.  I don't know.

Sat had a winning season in year 1 with us.

I think Beamer pretty much admitted in his post game presser that they should have went to Joyner earlier in the year.

Here is Satt's record at Temple:







Temple Owls (American Athletic Conference) (2013–2016)




2013


Temple


2–10


1–7


T–9th


 


 


 




2014


Temple


6–6


4–4


6th


 


 


 




2015


Temple


10–4


7–1


1st (East)


L Boca Raton





Going 10-4 at Temple is not even the same thing as going 10-4 in the SEC.

I am also talking about a winning record in the regular season instead of just winning a bowl game to just get one game above .500 overall.

I stopped watching Beamer's presser after he started the stuff about the people wanting the offensive staff fired, so I will take your word for the part about using Joyner sooner.

Unless it was a money issue with the BoT, you just don't intentionally get out of synch with the rest of the coaches on a new staff that work for you.

I am also not going to defend an OC who only wanted to be here for two years when all the other coaches got three-year deals.  For all we know, Satt may have already decided to go back to the NFL and is going to screw Shane over before February just like Brown did before the bowl game. 

We are automatically over a barrel with the offensive recruits because Satt and his staff that will coach them have been out of synch contract-wise from the gitgo.  From a timing standpoint, it's absolutely the same thing as bringing Bobo in here for Muschamp's last year.  The limiting factor was everybody knew Muschamp only had 1 year as HC left if things didn't change.  Although we gave Bobo a two-year deal, everyone knew he was gone if Muschamp was gone.  Shane even tried to accommodate Bobo with an approved contract, but Bobo went to Auburn instead and here we are with Satt.

I certainly hope I am wrong, but shame on Satt if he put Shane over a barrel with his contract earlier in the year.  We already knew Bobo was going to Auburn, so the buy-out shouldn't have played into Satt's shorter contract, although anything is possible with this Athletic Dept. in recent years.

Or was it because of Muschamp's $13.2M lump-sum pay-out, which was beyond stupid.  Any competing recruiter can easily point out that Satt only has one year left on his contract to these kids.

Satt's contract has just been a flag to me from the beginning.  That's something that can also cause stress among the ACs as well if they are worried about a new OC retaining them.

Yep.  When given a month of prep time and fewer options he’s a much better OC.   

 
South Carolina's 543 yards of total offense in today's Duke's Mayo Bowl victory were a season high and the most in a bowl game in program history. 

Well I will take that any day....

 
I also wonder if Shane was just skittish about asking for a three-year deal for Satt because he got burned by Bobo.

Win or lose, by the middle of next season Satt will be wondering where his next paycheck will come from after December, or whenever, and lose focus from a coaching standpoint.  It's not really a good position for a new OC to be in if he originally wanted a 3-year contract like everyone else of the new staff.  If we were the ones who put him in that position, then I most certainly feel for the guy.

Regardless of the reason for his shorter contract, I think it needs to be resolved one way or another before February so as not to cause recruiting problems for Shane's offensive staff.
