Learn how to read. He said that Reggie was too short. Learn how to think. Reggie was taller than Joe. Learn some football. An OL should create passing lanes (do NFL QB's "slide and find", or do the the OL's create a pocket with passing lanes?) . Learn some college football. While your "slide and find' comment makes no sense, even if true, college QBs need coaches that teach them technique.
Back to Joe, who said that everything Reggie knew, he learned himself.
Back to the article: Slabach said that Reggie could not pass over the middle because he was too short. Even your comments agree that height is not an absolute barrier to passing over the middle.
Your conclusion is lazy, like most of the football challenged on this board.. We had no middle passing game because Reggie had poor field vision that was not improved by the coaching staff (Ralph left tools behind for improving vision that have not been used) and because our line was poor at pass blocking and did not create passing lanes. If Reggie had been taller it might have helped, but like most intellectually lazy people, you can take the easy way out--blame it on Reggie. Easy, but so untrue.
Sorry that I used an example (Joe) that was not within the 4 cornes of the article,and that considering 'outside" comments hurt your brain. Take Monday off.
