We all know the games changed in a lot of ways but it's crazy to think Richt was an elite play caller in his previous stops
"In his seven years as offensive coordinator, the Seminoles ranked in the nation’s top five scoring offenses for five seasons, they were top twelve in total offense for five seasons, and top twelve in passing offense for five seasons. Richt coached two Heisman Trophy winning quarterbacks Charlie Ward and Chris Weinke. Richt coached a total of six FSU quarterbacks to the NFL, including Ward, Weinke, Brad Johnson (Tampa Bay Buccaneers), Danny Kanell (New York Giants), Danny McManus (Kansas City Chiefs) and Peter Tom Willis (Chicago Bears). During this period, FSU won two national championships (1993 and 1999).[7]"
This is the same guy that had an offense good enough to win two and play in three SEC championships in his first 6 seasons at UGA.
So I ask the film heads who were posting about his philosophy following the hire:
Is Richt running the same scheme he has in the past? If he is, what is it about modern defenses that turned this guys elite offense into crap?
