The reason the wildcat didn't work was because teams knew Ronnie couldn't throw the ball so it would be run. Thomas was a QB, so he can atleast throw it
NEW Wildcat!

Well if the the player throwing to him is a RB, it's not really a doubles reverse, and like I said, inside the 10 yard line only in a crucial moment you need to score. Tannehill is not your average QB, he is a very good route runner, has VERY good speed for a QB, and if a defense forgets about him, thinking run instead, he will have an advantage over whomever is covering him. Obviously once the play is used once or twice, teams will be looking for it, so that will make the play a bit more dangerous for Tannehill, but Miami could get away with few easier then normal go to goal TDs, if they allowed Tannehill to go out for an option pass here and there....Ah, probably won't happen anyway, unless your playing Madden. LOL
Did you really just type that lol.
The problem is that the wildcat itself is a problem.
We need to stop running these silly offenses and go play football.
You can't be serious lol.

Which part did you have a problem understanding?
A lot of QBs can get open if not covered and maybe can catch a football if they are totally open. But can a RB pull up and throw across the field and hit him?

You should look into it. The Gators were looking at signing him and he was a QB. He then played as a option QB in his first season in college.
There's no need to risk injury on our QB for a play that might work 1 or 2 times a game, eventually even if it does work the CBs will start defending Tannehill, I'd rather build a real offense than force a gimmick offense into our team.
The problem with DT is that he cannot run unless there is gaping hole. Most of the time the WC QB runs a keeper. With DT, that means no gain.
Well, first of all, the problem that I have is you have a RB throwing to a QB. We need to stop nonsense like this. The only reason we ran that ****ty Wildcat to begin with is because we had no other offense we could possibly run. Now that we actually have a QB, some of you want to revert to gooberistic silly offenses. I don't need my franchise QB lining up on the outside trying to catch bad passes from a guy whose job it is to run the football. Think about what some of you are saying.
Secondly, I don't doubt that the Gators recruited anyone. What I don't believe is that they turned anyone away for poor grades. If you can play football, the Gators will figure out some way to get you in. It's not like the Univerity of Florida is some institute of higher learning.

UF is only a great school compared to UM or FSU. UM could not even PAY players to pay well.
Do not take my talking about the Wildcat to been I think it is a good idea. My point was simply that Thomas is our only back that has been a QB. I think the spread option is a much better formation then the Wildcat is. The Wildcat worked because it used two very good running backs, without having those two very good running backs including at least one as the trigger man that can run between the tackles it is a waste of time. (see Pat White)
I think one mistake we made with the Wildcat was trying to run too many different plays out of it. We went away from the tried a true "put one back into motion and then run a option from it". We tried to get tricky with what is simply a power running formation. Personally I'd be fine with never seeing it again.
I would like to see Tannehill run the spread option like he did at Texas A&M. It looks a lot like a normal shotgun play/formation and if we could score or make a needed first down or two off it I'd be for it.

LMAO @ Florida being a better school than Miami.

You were saying?
And for the record, since you seem to be confused, Miami NEVER paid players.

Could work especially with Hartline commanding a double and sometimes triple team!

Who takes the direct snap? If you remember back Lee and Henning asked in a meeting. When we were 0-2 who wanted to take that snap.
Ronnie raised his hand.
Philbin nor Sherman will ask that question.
Mike Pouncey. Direct snap to himself.
