Out of the 2 OC hires in the state of Florida

WhatTheHell said:
Kendall Briles is 36 years old. He started coaching and learning from his father, offensive mastermind Art Briles, when he was a young teenager. He’s been an offensive coordinator officially for 4 seasons. These are his total offenses:

Baylor: 1st
Baylor: 6th
FAU: 9th
Houston: 7th

He hasn’t been associated with offense outside the top 10 yet as an OC.

was he calling plays when art was there? also, he's a great o mind but we haven't see him against better defenses. i also dont think **** end up coaching at FSU when its all said and done

I agree with this. I think he's on track to be a star, but having to go against consistently better defenses will be his test. Enos is more battle-tested against good defenses, but Briles has higher upside.

I don't see it this way. I don't consider him at all "battle tested" as an OC or HC, at least not in terms of having passed any battle test.

Of all the offenses he's coached as either OC or HC (eight), he has one 27th ranked scoring offense to his credit, and no other offense ranked in the top-50.

As OC, Briles coached Houston to the 5th best scoring offense in 2018 and FAU to the 8th ranked scoring offense in 2017. In terms of who's more battle tested and who has proved anything so far as an OC, Briles has the vastly superior track record.

Enos doesn't really have a good track record at anything other than coaching QB's. Hopefully, his talents at coaching QB's along with further maturation will allow Enos to coach a scoring offense to better success than he's ever achieved anywhere in his career. But I'm concerned because he's never done before as either OC or HC.
 
The Briles offense puts up enormous numbers. Enos will not match that. However, he may very well be better able to carve up elite D's. The Briles offense can be stopped when a D has the athletes to match up all over the field. Briles is about exploited space and athletes. It works magically when you play average opponents.

Carving up good D's is the most important task for an OC. Enos could have the upper hand there.

Facts only
 
Enos by a mile . This ain't the real briles this is the younger who has shown nothing. Enos has a list of QBs who have been great. Art Briles is a offensive genius but he is also of piece of **** . His son is nothing . YOu can't mention the Baylor numbers as his dad was running the show.
 
Being a typical CIS porster, the obvious answer is Briles, because we hired Enos.

However, if we had hired Briles and FSU had hired Enos, then the obvious answer would be Enos.

Briles was a good hire no doubt, but everyone speaks on the positives of having a gifted playcaller calling plays but don’t speak on the negatives, it’s like you guys learned nothing from the Kliff Kingsbury situation, if Briles legitimately changes FSU offense, the next wave of NFL teams will be doing interviews to poach him from FSU and make him a HC. Every team is looking for the next young offensive minded coach like Sean Mcvay, consider FSU lucky if they’re able to keep him for 2 years, at least with Enos, I trust him staying with Manny and Miami for 2+ years. What’s the point of having a young OC like Briles if he would leave us for the next Coaching gig and we would have to make this search again.

Enos is a much better QB coach and probably harder to shut down completely. Briles will put up huge numbers tho.

Enos could very well be the better hire.

We will find out.

Of course Enos is the better hire, who wants a guy that would put up huge numbers when you can have a 50 year old with a losing record as a head coach

Lol @ Briles in a laugher. People confuse Art with kendal. Kendal is Not his father. Not even close. Get off his nuts. Hes done nothing to warrant the praise. How many championship staffs has he been a part of?

This is not an endorsement for enos its just a chill pill on all the Briles Diq eating going on round this bih

Who would you rather have Briles or Enos? I would take Briles! Thoughts?

My thing about Briles is how much play calling did he actually do in the last two years? He was under two offensive minded HCs. Enos seems to have the better resume

I think Enos uses the run game more and has shown to be more productive in the run game. I like his head coach experience along with designing offenses to run against top defenses. I question if Briles offense will put up video game numbers against quality defenses and teams who may limit offensive possessions.

You question if Briles offense will put up video game numbers against quality defenses and teams who may limit offensive possessions? If that is your criteria for establishing a good OC then good luck finding one because that's a pretty tall order. I would question any coaches ability to do that.

Both were great hires and home runs on paper. Time will tell but Dan knows how to coach QBs which we sorely need right now.
 
Tough call...

Hire a guy that was mentored by Nick Saban who wanted Enos to continue on as his offensive coordinator.

-or-

A guy who's coaching tenure at Baylor will be defined by his connection with the Baylor University sexual assault scandal. According to a lawsuit filed in January 2017, a Baylor graduate alleges she was gang raped by two football players in 2013. In addition, allegedly more than 50 instances of rape, committed by 31 football players, occurred between 2011 and 2014.

Its not my criteria for an OC. But I'm sure experience against major P5 schools is a reason some OC get looked at over other ones. By numbers Graham Harrel is 10x the OC most OCs are but would he be a top 2 candidate at any maybe P5 playoff contender. I'm not a huge fan of the Air-Raid spread schemes (Leach, Briles). I lean more towards elements of the power spread ala Clemson and Ohio State (Urban and Herman). I believe it control pace of the game and dominate in the trenches in the air raid schemes. I think Enos will prove better for us because he has experience against major P5 playoff contender defenses with his offense and its appears more balanced with run design and pass design. I could be wrong but I would have chose him for us over Briles. Not for pass play calls but to run our offense and setting the foundation for Manny's Debut staff.
