Depth-Chart Adjustments

After another abysmal showing by the offense, it should be very clear that we need to make some changes quick, fast, and in a hurry. The very first that comes to mind:

Trey Woods earns the No. 1 slot at running back. He's very green but seems to have the physicality we're looking for with his size, strength, and ability to gain yards after contact. Looks to have good upside so with more reps and development I think he becomes the productive back we're in dire need of. Kellen Overstreet at No. 2 and Milo Hall at 3. Anything is better than the 2 YPC we're getting with Hall!!!

Some adjustments need to occur with the receiving corps as well. I'd say at this point CJ Johnson takes a back-seat to John Okwoli. He has failed to snag in catchable balls on multiple occasions and quite frankly just looks confused out there more often than not. I'm also not seeing anything close to the chemistry JA had with Gentry and an ability to improvise when a play breaks down. I hope some of our passing woes will be alleviated when James Price is able to play.

Not much to be hopeful for at this point but I think that's a start. Curious to see what you all think/any adjustments you think would help our offense out.
 
I'd be curious to see if there's anything that can be done with the line to improve run blocking. Not all of the lack of a running game is the fault of the backs. I'd also like to see fewer run plays with Hall, but maybe utilize him more as a receiver/emergency outlet more. He's fairly elusive in space.

I'd like to see him in the type of role Conway had last year. I was really high on Milo coming in but it's become clear he cannot be the focal point of our run game. I agree with OP that Woods seems like he could be that guy if we gave him some run, and Overstreet as the 2. Hell idk why we haven't tried Evans any yet either. He'd probably be better than Milo has done
 
Woods moves up to No. 2 RB for the Hawaii game. Milo Hall still in at No. 1....

I'd like to see how much we miss price. I thought price, Conway and Johnson would be formidable. Something is way off. I guess we know why cox and Scott were mentioned as possible freshmen contributors. It's because our corp isn't that great

Well we're not going to find out this week either because he's still out for the Hawaii game. I thought they said he'd be back by conference play?
 
Did we recruit any JuCos this year? Seems like when Bohl does recruit one they are of high caliber ( Hollister, gafforrd, & Allen). Seems like if there would be a year to get a Juco WR or TE it would be this year. Figure they would be lining up to play with Allen after the hype he got this off season. Missed opportunity by this staff, and why because of inflexibility in recruiting philosophy?
