[QUOTE="Illini2010-11, post: 1815445, member: 748820"] We are obviously watching different games then. Illinois is not winning in spite of our OC. As mentioned in other threads, these sorts of extensions are normal and are for continuity purposes. I am amazed you made it through the Beckman and Lovie era, if this is the reason you are done. Despite the vanilla offensive play calling, look at how good DeVito has looked. I feel this is due to the scheme and coaching. Given development and recruiting, I look forward to seeing the offense down the road. We are simply lacking a deep play threat right now. This is not the fault of the OC. In fact, he is trying to draw up plays to get the ball in the hands of our playmakers. The issue in almost every loss is unforced errors, in the form of penalties. We simply are not a team able to play from behind the sticks. You can blame penalties on coaching, but a lot have been holding calls. I think that is where recruiting and development will resolve that issue. The team is just not deep enough yet, and you can see the line wearing down, which is where many penalties are coming from.
