The key takeaway seems to be that Steve wants to run way more offensive plays. I'm not sure his coaching ability meets his aspirations. In 2009 (Chip Kelly's first year with the Oregon offense), UO ran 69 plays per game, same as UW in 2012. In 2010, UO ran 78 plays per game. Steve wants to hit 82 in 2013. Anyone here think he can do it without an OL and Keith Price getting destroyed by, well, everyone in the league?

    Chip built his whole program and practice procedure around a 100% commitment to that offense. Its not something you dabble in as part of whatever the fuck seven is doing.

    Pretty much. If you have the personnel and the coaching, teams can succeed. But for UO it's a mindset, from Seven it seems like whimsy.

    If this doesn't tell that Sark is serious, I can't help you!

    Every day on the team practice scripts, given out to assistant coaches and staffers, Sarkisian writes “FASTER” across the top in big letters, using a highlighter for extra emphasis.

    Sark continues to show he's all sizzle and no steak.

    I don't know nor care about the rest of Kelly's first season as Oregon head coach, but in his first game at BSU, the ducks had just one offensive series that went the length of the field resulting in a TD. The BSU defense against Kelly's offense in that game was coordinated by Justin Wilcox who is now....... well, you know.

    Sark has to expect the Husky defense will again be much improved compounding it's significant improvement of last season. If not, Sark as OC is not likely to have the opportunity to call 80+ offensive plays per game, just as Kelly didn't or couldn't in 2009. But if Sark's offense doesn't continue to fuck up and defeat itself as often as it did in 2012, and Wilcox's defense improves as we should expect, the 2013 Huskies will have a chance of winning more than 7 games regardless of how enamered the media is with Sark's hurry-up, no-huddle play calling.

    I know it must seem odd given that our team lost 9 straight to Guru Kelly and his predecessor, but Dawgfans still retain some shadows in our minds about what it takes to win football games against mere mortals. The number of offensive plays run has no cumulative numerical value on the scoreboard.

    If this website is a forum to talk bluntly about Husky Football, then great. If it's a haven for sexists and racists (which I'm beginning to think is the case), then that could be even MORE fun. I like locking horns with the typical insecure angry white male. You know, the guy who lashes out at everyone because his own penis is small, and he just doesn't like how things turned out for him.

    quality > quantity

    Simple fact.

    Of course if you have quantity AND quality, you will have an offense of abundance. But with Sark, I think he will be stuck with just quantity.

    If you score in 4 plays on each drive, what does it matter how many plays are run?
