If I was an OC I’d have I formation in my offense and I’m a huge spread guy. I want wr’s **** near standing out of bounds , but I’d also like to be able to bust somebody in the mouth if needed. Spreading the field is modern football everywhere but it doesn’t mean there’s not aspects of the older pro style still around. That’ll never die.

I hate how simplistic fans categorize things

Spread = pass happy
Pro Style = run heavy

It’s all about creativity and staying up with effective trends in offensive playcalling

This! I just want to be good at scoring points and at stopping the other team from scoring points. And in college football, the teams that are really good at scoring points are not running some bull**** old “pro style” scheme that the pros don’t even use any more.
 
Urban Meyer said it best, the run game is a numbers game.

Football in itself is a numbers game. Runs into light boxes are more likely to succeed compared to condensed and stacked boxes. Matchups mater, field condension and distribution of players, angles of routes and distances, all of this matters.

Bill Walsh drew up plays designed at some point that he was looking for triangular patterns between the routes to put zone and read defenders in rat coverages into a blend. Its in his book, I have it as a PDF and its just nuts to read.

When I watch College Football, successful offenses make the field feel as if its 25 kilometres wide. The cameras have to zoom out because they want to show the line of scrimmage every play with every player involved. Miami makes the field look small in contrast.

Dolphins are pass heavy AF right now but they have all that speed at RB might as well use it

Shaw and Mario are both “pOuNd ThE rOcK” bros. Shaw I can get because you’re not going to consistently get superior skill talent at Stanford.

Tucker is a defensive guy. I’m not familiar with who runs their offense but without the RB they had last year, their rushing offense is worse than Miami’s.

Jimbo might be the most overrated head coach in history. He’s done a whole lot of nothing without Jameis Winston and has unlimited resources and recruiting budget. What scares me is that he’s consistently recruited at a really high level yet A&M can’t get over the hump. It’s his offensive preference that’s holding the entire program back. He demands to run his pro style scheme no matter how many years in a row it fails.
 
Biggest difference is Mario is in year 1.

Tucker is in year 3-4.
Shaw has been at Stanford since Methuselah was roaming around.
We all know Jimblo’s history.

Revisit this when the other 3 are position coaches and Mario is still a HC.

Mario’s next OC will be very telling. Historically speaking he has a good track record, not homeruns… but good, of hiring coordinators. He realizes he whiffed on Gattis.

The next guy will be more creative in both run and pass game

I hope, as many do, you’re right. From the outside looking in, I think Mario’s rep for wanting a boring, ground and pound offense is a bit misleading. He may be stubborn when it comes to his expectations for the players, but I just don’t see him being stubborn when it comes to offensive philosophy.

Walsh was a bloody genius. Reminded me of a style of soccer called Tiki-Taka. I used to call it triangulation.
