I swear he is getting worse. The last several seasons have been just dreadful.
Fixed it for you.

Cut blocking requires mobile O-Linemen. When the current staff arrived from Ohio, they put the 300+ lb O-Linemen through heck in Spring Practice and made them lose a lot of weight and become mobile so they could cut block. The result is that we averaged over 200+ yards rushing per game for the first few years.
Now we have 300+ lb O-Linemen who don't get a push, don't open many holes and don't pass protect particularly well.
The biggest takeaway I get from this is that we are minimizing Coach Mitchell's role on the team. Not hard to see the writing on the wall for his future imo.
