Off Coordinator change probably coming.....Buckley article

[jllanclos]

There are many more skill players willing to play at mid-majors in the right offense. The NFL is a passing league, and those with aspirations to play in the NFL want to play in an offense that highlights their talent. That's why you see team light Memphis, Houston, Boise, and others have success against the P5 programs as they have the skill players to compete. I don't think you'll get NFL caliber skill players recruiting to run the ball 50 times a game, and you won't have consistent success trying to run the ball against teams with better line/linebackers like the P5's will typically be able to recruit.

This.

I love me some triple option, honestly. I'd be in heaven if we recruited to that and ran that successfully here.

But the kids want a flashy, fast-paced offense. We've had recruits saying they came here specifically because of the tempo and style of offense we run. That (should) mean better athletes and more wins.

Theoretically....

Same reason we wear crazy uniforms and have trees on our basketball court. It's what the kids nowadays want.

And all I want is to win.

If we have our act together, this speculation doesn't occur.

If this happens you will have to change your screen name.

That is pretty funny. (Sorry C4L... but that right there is funny).

Triple option, zone read, air raid, wing t, single wing, Notre dame box...I don't care just run something that works.

It would be if I was just a fan of football. But I'm actually a basketball fan first.

Looks like Hud is still considering Munoz, but I think he will make a change.

Yes!

You ever watch ga Tech this year they run option and are very balanced with the passing game.

Again, this is wrong. They passed literally 20% of the time. They totaled 160 pass attempts the entire year versus 611 rushing attempts. How is this balanced?

[zephyr]

I hate mish/mash, dual threat, multiple, amorphous offenses. Either give me a real QB or run the freakin' option.

So, if this is true, it would please me greatly.

So you don't like balance?

So you don't like balance?

If you're running a pro-set, balance is key. If you're running any kind of spread, your numbers will be skewed to the pass if it's an air raid or to the run if it's a zone read as 2 of the options in the zone read are runs.



To seek balance with a zone read or a traditional option attack is silly.

I just ask since you said to give you either a true passer or an option offense. I thought you were speaking from one extreme to the next. I prefer balance and I do believe it can be obtained through running a chunk of zone read. We did it from 2011-2014 so I know it can be done.
