It's time for us to evolve and adapt a true spread, hurry-up offense.

No, the spread, hurry-up isn't a "gimmick" offense. It's a system. A system that was created as an equalizer for teams with lesser talent, but has evolved into a system that gives even the best defensive minds (Saban for one) fits.

It's time that Miami join the new age of college football. The game has changed. This is an offensive game now. You win championships by scoring points. Not having your offense sit on the ball.

Players today want to play in fun offenses. Look at what Baylor's offense has done for them. They got one of the top WRs in the nation last year in KD Cannon. Speedy Noil chose Texas A&M over LSU because of their offense. Every year Clemson's spread offense plucks an elite player from Florida. Gus Malzhan took Auburn to the championship game last year with a ******* cornerback playing QB for them.

Even a defensive mind like Gary Patterson realized the benefits of a spread system and changed his offense from a grind it out slugfest into a wide open offense that has him competing for Big 12 championships and beating the **** out of a "mighty SEC defense," Ole Miss.

7 of the final top 10 this year run some for of the spread. Look at this year's championship game. Two spread teams that both ranked in the top 10 in offense this year. One of which did so with their second and third string QBs.

Forgot to add that they need to pay their football staff like the rest of the country
 
This is Miami, dammit! We live in the past. Just look at all the documentaries shown on the History Channel.
 
And also pay like the big time football program we are ATLEAST nationally gotta pay big to win big

I am really hoping our next head coach puts in a spread offense. Would love Scott frost
 
I've been having this argument for 7-8 years . It's not a gimmick, it's football in space . Ask any dc and he 'll tell you it's far more difficult to prepare for.

People need to wake up.

Right. Because our offense was a juggernaut when operating at a snail's pace and ranking 120th in the country in plays per game this season.

We have the most fertile recruiting ground for skill talent in the entire country right in our backyard. And our current philosophy is not to showcase them as much as possible because it's more important to shorten the game and slow everything down. F*** that.

Installing a no huddle, no mercy offense should be a prerequisite for the next coaching candidate.
 
What do you mean spread? Read option? That's a terrible idea now that we have an actual passer. Agree offenses should use tempo, but think more Payton manning than Oregon.

What really matters is competent coaches who can recognize what defenses are doing and exploit it.

I mean a spread, passing attack that also goes hurry up. I want athletes on the field, in space, with as many opportunities to make plays as possible.

Baylor runs a hurry up, spread offense with a passing QB in Bryce Petty. A spread offense doesn't have to be a read option like Oregon.

A&M this year with Hill or Allen wasn't a spread option, but it was a wide open offense.

You can run an up tempo spread without using the read option when you have a pro style QB who isn't a running threat. And then they can easily install read option concepts for a dual threat QB like Centeio if he ends up sticking a few years from now.
 
Mike Leach would've come here for pennies. I don't care what his struggles are right now, what he'd have done with SFL skill position players would have been sick. I don't want to hear about how he knows nothing about D, because we haven't seen one of those in years anyway.

Golden gets fast players, and he starts bulking them up, slowing them down.

The only furry up offense we'll see at Miami is that of our opponents.
 
Miami ranked 120th in the nation this year in plays per game at 66.

Compare that to teams in the top 25 that had around 78 plays per game.

That's an extra 12 opportunities to get the ball into playmakers hands like Coley, Dorsett, Waters and Duke that we didn't have.
