Geoff Collins is a good Defensive coach, but transitioning to a more traditional offense from the Triple option will take a good 2-3 years to fully recruit enough players that fit the new system.i wonder what GT will look like with their new coach as well, probably bad unless they've been hitting the portal too.
Totally agree and only 1 potentially cold weather game, against a team we should smoke!12-0.
Why are we playing Va on a Friday night? Let me guess, Hard Rock not available.

They got Brent Key from Bama as their OL coach & Run game coordinator, but Dave Patenaude is their OC, he's a long time FCS Patriot & Ivy League coach, who was at Fordham, Holy Cross, Columbia, Hofstra & Georgetown, in fact he didn't become a D1 coach until 22 years into his career when he went to Coastal Carolina & was with Geoff Collins at Temple for a year. Nothing special to worry about.
Great scheduling. 2 weeks to prepare for fiu. This schedules sucks.
They'll be running a typical Spread Offense, the same offense that Dave Patenaude ran for Temple from 2017-18 with Geoff Collins. It's not really a fast pace attack, it's more predicated on being a heavy run game scheme. He brought it over from Coastal Carolina, it's basically a Zone run scheme with a lot of Guard pulling plays that setup quick cutbacks in the interior A&B gaps.What kind of offense will they be running next year because I honestly have no idea.
Will they still run some triple option?

Here's a full game of Temple vs Buffalo, that's basically what we can expect for GTech's offense.
Buffalo got the upset & our new WR KJ Osborn had a nice game vs this Defense.
Woohoo! A game near dear Ol’ SCRANTON. Ya boy’s gonna make it to a game this year!
Being in VA kind of bummed both UVA and Tech are at home this year for Miami.
