I feel like there’s a critical piece of context missing from all college Brock analysis: Iowa State’s offensive coordinator was REALLY. REALLY. BAD.
Until last year when he was fired, it became apparent that Tom Manning only ran 12 or less plays, and the offense would consistently sputter because the defense would see them coming.
Doesn’t excuse all the lowlights, but hopefully that contextualizes the perception on behalf of Brock that he “has to do SOMETHING” to keep the offense going.
Oh yeah! Also our Oline coach was REALLY. REALLY. BAD.
