Ed Warinner has done a great job since he was moved to the box. Now there are a lot of variables that have contributed to the success, but there's absolutely no way that he should not be given the credit for the success of the offense since he was moved upstairs.

There was a LOT of angst around here all last year (Herman leaving, 2 QB's, Beck was a problem, etc) and it calmed down after the last two wins, but the success after the move to the box has continued this year.

I broke this down between the 5 games up to the MSU game and the 5 games after the move. There's separate data for 2016 alone, which has some interesting information.
  • Meyer wants 50/50 balance.
    • LY up to MSU = 222 Rushes (68%) / 103 Pass Attempts (32%)
    • 2016 only = 151 Rushes (62%) / 92 Pass Attempts (38%)
    • LY up to MSU = 1,154 Rushing yards (60%) / 751 Passing yards (40%)
    • 2016 only = 918 Rushing yards (56%) / 718 Passing yards (44%)
I think it's time we (the board) give Warinner and Beck there just kudos.
