last year they did that because Kaaya was so young and was there for 3 months. not sure if he is speaking about the prior years. Morris probably couldnt run a offense that was too complicated because that guy made horrible decisions lol
Meanwhile our D is the most complex system ever designed....makes sense.
I remember Antrell Rolle said it once if you are better then the team on the other side it doesn't matter what the play call is or whose calling the plays you are just simply better and you execute it regardless if the other teams knows its coming or not.
**** our defense knew the run was coming 9 out of 10 times and we still couldn't stop teams like GT and Nebraska
You can be simple and unpredictable.
I think you are making more of this than you should. In college its catered to 17 & 18 year olds coming out of high school. in the Pros you're getting 22 & 23 year olds. I would bet he is mostly talking about the language, intricacies, and audibles. Not trying to call Golden "Simple"
This. ****** OP is making **** up with that quote. We are already ******, we don't need to make **** up to make us seem ****tier. Our program doesn't need the help as its at the bottom of the barrel already.Not to sound like I'm defending these ****** coaches but Duke never once in that interview called the offense Pop Warner. Called it simple but he didn't call it Pop Warner.
[MENTION=3972]NVA CANE[/MENTION]: OP is putting 100 on something that's already a 10. We get it, the coaches can't coach, but there's no need to fabricate storylines to prove a point. The on-field production is proof in itself. The fact that we stunk on 3rd downs is proof in itself. No need to put words in Duke's mouth. Duke and Philip already voiced their frustration via twitter circa 2013 when they both were injured and got WAXED by Va Tech. We know how Duke truly feels, but no need to add extras OP.This. ****** OP is making **** up with that quote. We are already ****ty, we don't need to make **** up to make us seem ****tier.

The offense might be a joke, but he never said it was Pop Warner-esque. If you're gonna quote someone then make sure it's accurate.
WTF! I wasn't furnished with a freaking TRANSCRIPT in real time. I had to recollect to the best of my abilities. Maybe these Golden slurp pets want me to scribe Duke like a mandated Courtroom Transcriber. ****, we've even said here a zillion times that comparing current UM Corches to Pop Warner is an injustice to Pop Warner coaches.
Considering how Duke smirked, giggled, and over all dismissive tone towards UM play callers, one should've complain that I couldn't quite capture that dis-rep in its pure form...as dismissive as that was.
Right?? So let's keep our Offense simple for 17 & 18 year olds but we'll play a complex Defense for the samee 17 & 18 year olds??
Look what the Phins are doing? Coyle is simplifying the D' so players don't have to think so much out there and they can react more.. Be more instinctive.. Maybe Golden & No'D should think about doing the same..
I don't think Coley's the problem, IMO it's Golden.. Coley called a beautiful 1st half and the start of the 3rd quarter against FSU, and then they got conservative trying to hold onto the lead..
I don't know if Golden or No'D is the problem? But when the D plays Aggresive & Attacks instead of that Bend & Don't Break Crap, our team can play with almost any team in the country..
My Intern last summer played for Butch Davis at U.N.C. from 09-12, he said they use to fear playing The U, but now they believe they can Beat Us.
We've lost that SWAG
Either Golden has to Grow A Pair & Start going for the Juggler or Show him the Door..

I feel bad for Duke when he realizes he's playing for the browns.
What's important is not the complexity of the offense, but rather the Execution of the offense. This is one area that we fell short on. Not converting 3rd and short because of missed assignments. Not extending drives, etc. I hate the bubble screen offense, but a lot of our struggles were due to poor execution.
We out-talented every team we played except FSU. We had an NFL talented offense, we didn't need a complex offense to put up points consistently.
