Rees, Quinn and Taylor must be working together really well to have the running game turned around so fast. The knock on this team was that the OL couldn't run block but it looks like the real issue was the offensive scheme all along.
From the stories about Chip Long after he was fired, it sounded like the players and coaches all hated him. He rode in on his single successful season at Memphis and thought he was going to blow people out. Well he certainly did blow against any team with a pulse.
Good luck Chippy boy, hopefully ND can face your special offensive genius at some point.
