Coaches Corner: Offense is it time to see what others can do?


Time to get ready for next year and see who can play

Well we would like to see major changes and see who can play. Does not mean certain players are not doing well, but with no (15) bowl practices this is the time to see what they have for next year and also what positions that they need to recruit harder even if that means promise kids that they can/will start as true freshman.
Does this mean it will happen? Probably not because the coaches still believe they can win ball games and there message to the team is we play the best players to win now and you earn your spot to play everyday.

We do believe they will start to work other guys into the rotation and see what they can do in practice and then evaluate them to see if they get snaps in the games coming up the rest of the season.

Offense:
The rest of the year, we would like to see them move Schilling to Right Guard (even though he is not a big fan of that move) and mover Dorrestein to Right Tackle. Would also like to see them move Moosman to Offensive Center. If he has some bad snaps so what now does it really matter?

Nothing against Molk who is a good kid, but it is time to see who will play that position next year because Molk just is not big enough to be that guy even with another year of S&C. Get Shaw in the rotation at either Running Back or Slot Receiver.

At this stage in the year please do not burn anymore red-shirts no matter what … please.

WR – Mathews
Slot – Odoms
Left Tackle - Ortmann
Left Guard - McAvoy
Offensive Center - Moosman
Right Guard - Schilling
Right Tackle - Dorrestein
Tight End - Koger
Wide Receiver - Stonum
Quarterback - Threet
RB - Minor

Get these players in the rotation to see what they can do.

OC – Molk we have seen what he can do, but he should not be benched completely. Thrown him in there to help and let him get some playing time.

OG – Ferrara – We seen him early, but might want to see what he can do now a few weeks later. Could he be a kid that will never find a spot or could he be moved back to defense if recruiting does not work out.

Huyge – Try him out on the offensive line (Offensive Guard) somewhere in the rotation to see what he can do. He has the skill set to be good in this system.

RB/Slot - Shaw

Slot – Rogers

RB – McGuffie (if healthy) get him some carries.

RB/Slot – Carlos Brown (if healthy) to see what he can do.

RB - Grady

WR - Hemingway (if healthy) to see how he will fit in this offense.

WR - Savoy

WR – Clemons

TE - Webb and Watson might be a good time to see if they can play or move them to another position.

Would like to see Michigan use the slots more in running game, hence let us get some playmakers on the field.

Let us get two of our good and even all three Running Backs on field at same time. McGuffie or Shaw teaming at slot with Odoms. The bigger guys such as Koger and Clemons, etc at slot are just not able to stretch defense and get Outside Linebackers out of the box.
