If everyone knew what we were going ...Fresh start? If everyone knew what we were going to call on EVERY play,in nearly every BC game...it would be fair to say we needed a fresh start. Montel was beat on game after game with the same calls, blocking for himself, and then just blew out cartilage in that knee from endless pounding. So then, when we got Andre in there we ran that freshman 40+ times in his first game. Was anyone surprised? When we rarely scored TD's in the red zone game after game, was anyone surprised? <br /><br />Is there any question what plays we will run on offense against Nevada in S.F. on down after down? No. Fresh start? Fresh start? We don't need a weatherman to know that Tranq's offense scheme blows...We have a great defense against the run and people can pass on us if they're any good. We can't score enough to win against top tier teams, but we can hold them to below their average numbers with our D. I love our BC Eagles, and that team deserves a great offensive scheme and a ballsy OC with guts and imagination and toughness. It's time... and this game in The City will reveal clear ly what we have and do not have. Those Nevada guys took Boise down bigtime...we'll give 'em a battle, for sure--but will we score?mmasonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10069140509176448295noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9512562.post-10821380618645679472010-12-11T07:48:55.991-05:002010-12-11T07:48:55.991-05:00I'm not really sure I understand the reluctanc...I'm not really sure I understand the reluctance to totally scrap an offense that wasn't even in the top 100.

Tranq is currently OC and in charge of QBs.
