Bollman: Anyone hear about this?
Quote:
|
Ohio State tried something new against Iowa, shifting offensive coordinator Jim Bollman from the sidelines to the coaches' box above the field. It didn't help. If the Buckeyes want a more radical change, they could turn to talented true freshman QB Todd Boeckman, a 6-foot-5, 235-pounder from Ohio's St. Henry High School. Tressel has been leaning toward redshirting Boeckman to put two years of separation between him and Zwick and Smith.

This was taken from "A look around the Big Ten" on ESPN Insider, by Teddy Greenstein. It sounds as though the staff is aware of his inability to develope a line--maybe something will be done about it. What is strange is that an offensive line coach made it to the box before the defensive coordinator.

Considering Tressel's recent track record with QBs, I doubt Boeckman would be of much use.

I would change your observation to: "Considering the OL's recent track record, I don't think any QB would be of much use."

One can only hope that Bollman will be taken to the curb ... better sooner than later. |

The part regarding Boeckman in any other role than backup is ridiculous. I posted the paragraph because it seems strange they put (made?) the O-Line coach in the box. That seems to indicate the line is thinner than I thought.

I have to agree with that. He has had plenty of time to develope and improve the offensive line. It has only regressed.

did anyone watch the game?? they mentioned this, they put the run cordinator (bollman) with the passing cordinator (daniels) to get a more cohesive approach.
