Please help me understand something

So our new OC comes from a high powered spread offense. He filled in as OC for Cincy's bowl game and they didn't miss a beat.

Don Brown instituted an aggressive defense that was, in most areas, very successful.

Outside of having the right players why can't we continue the defensive style and bring Cincy's spread offense here and be successful?

Coaches don't have copyrights on the offenses or defenses. It's on paper, it's on film and coaches have witnessed it first hand.

Let's implement Chip Kelley's genius offense and win some games.

There, that was easy.

Works for me!

Done!

We had a good defense before Don Brown came here. Defense has always been a uconn trait. I'm confident we'll put a capable defense on the field. Hank Hughes didn't forget how to coach.

Maybe I'm not being clear.

Why can't teams just duplicate these high powered offenses after their OC leaves?

Weist should be able to recite the Cincy offense in his sleep. After getting some of the right players in place we should be fine right?

Oregon shouldn't miss a beat with Chip Kelly gone right?

GDL will be tough to replace.

True. His offense is so complicated that even he hasn't figured it out yet.

Yeah, it's hard to find anyone that bad...might even be impossible.

Unfortunately, you require players of a certain caliber to implement the spread offense with the same level of success as Chip Kelly. The nice thing about it is that it allows you to compete at a high level while undersized/skilled on the offensive line. Issue is you need talent at the skill position. This would include RB's able to beat D-linemen to the corner and receivers who could catch the ball.

Chip Kelly does not run a Spread-- he runs the Option

I have a feeling that he took a bad option by going to Philly.

Give me $32-35 million bad options any day of the week.

+1 , always taking a shot at PP and GDL on almost every thread.

It was pretty subtle, but the premise of this thread is a shot at GDL and PP. Have a nice day.

Doesn't he run a spread option?
