That old Texas Tech receiver was, by Dana Holgorsen’s description, “absolutely terrible” for two years. Then he went on to back-to-back all-Big XII seasons and a slot in the 2007 NFL Draft.

“One thing this offense allows you to do is develop kids,” said Holgorsen, WVU’s first-year offensive coordinator. “This is the beginning product. I think the talent we have is fine. The way guys develop is what I think is most important to me.”

Ask Oklahoma State players, coaches and fans. Justin Blackmon won the Biletnikoff Award last season. Two weeks into preseason camp he was the team’s “third-best receiver,” Holgorsen said. “Based on his development and maturity, he ended up being pretty good.”

Uh, yes. Right now, the most pointless and unanswerable question posed to any offensive coach is “Who’s looking good?” at a position. In truth, this whole three days and revisit model on offense keeps a reigns on evaluations, especially early. We know the second week is really the first week and the third week is really still the first week, but this second week is unique because it’s the first time to see if the players are picking things up on offense.

In reality, you can’t do things once until you’ve done them twice. The development get interesting after Saturday’s practice.

“Now after day No. 6, how much do we have to go back and do on the first day of the third week – practice No. 1 – again?” Stewart said. “At that point, after six practices, we have to figure out what these guys are doing well, but at that point, if we’re not doing something well we need to either get good at it or get out of it.”

The third week ends April 16 with the first scrimmage of the spring and Stewart and Holgorsen will again evaluate where the team stands entering the final two weeks.

“Do I stick with the lesson plan or do I deviate from the subject to get to the means?” Stewart said.
