Was Furman stealing signs?

It was one of if not the most predictable play calling games this year. Hopefully offensive coaches and Bobby see that looking at film and how well Furman was set up to defend the plays. Furman is good but not that good and I do not think they stole signs, just knew Pease trends. Wondering if the two big runs from Cliff were due to them selling out on a pre snap prediction of play, but for some reason Pease deviated from the usual zone run. Others it might have been RPO and Cliff chose wrong. Bobby post game interview on radio seemed critical of Cliff even mentioned pressure can get to players.
 
What does it matter if they were stealing signs? (they weren’t). Unless you’re using technology, stealing signs with your football savvy is fair game and just another part of coaching.
 
It sounds to me like they were more than just predicting plays based on tendencies. If there is a tell or they cracked the signals good on them. I’m sure it will be addressed.

Potential for some gamesmanship there though to set some things up.

I’ve watched exactly three games, cat griz and the two playoff games. I can tell every time it’s gonna a be a qb draw/counter. So, yeah, I think a team that has been watching film would be able to predict quite a few pkays…except for the cats.

You’ve watched THREE games? Did you JUST become a Griz fan?
He's a cat fan. A former athlete actually :lol:

I think it's more a case of saying "how can we fix this in a week?"
