So if he didn't plan to keep his offense, he would recruit lesser linemen? Huh?
Okay, fair point.
What I probably meant was that with UW getting the best OL in decades, he will be emboldened to keep his overly complicated offense to prove to the many doubting fans that his offense can indeed win an NC.
Though there is an 81% chance he'd keep is overly complicated offense anyway, even if we weren't getting the best OL in decades.
One the biggest misnomers on this bored is CP’s “complicated” offense.
TE’s trading sides, WRs shifting and RPO’s are not fucking complicated.
All offenses look complicated if the execution sucks.
The motion isn’t the complicated part. That’s the misnomer. It’s the intricate and multiple blocking/protection schemes and reads by the QB that make things hard.
We were an RPO offense last season. Brownsocks had to count + read a defender and make a choice. Every non-triple school in the country runs them. Our? QB made shit reads + Bush was inconsistent.
UW is not Air Raid-ian levels of simplicity but it isn’t that complicated

So maybe unnecessarily ‘busy’ or ‘cute’ is a better way to describe it? I don’t know... perhaps all the pre-snap motioning just makes it seem more complicated than it actually is. I do know Pete said at the end of last season that he would look to simplify the offense before this season. Not sure what that’s gonna look like... I guess we’ll see. EWIWBI.
Right.
I took simplify as meaning a more “focused” approach to the offense... As in, clearly defining what we? want to be as an offense and how we? want to do it.
The concepts we teach aren’t THAT complicated. It’s how they’ve been applied is what has held us back IMO
I don’t really care what offense we run as long as we can execute the plays and understand that sticking with the run is our best bet in most situations. I got sick of watching us predictably abandon the run when we were winning the game and needed to manage the clock. And when we did run the ball, we got bailed out by Gaskin’s ability to break tackles because it was some slow to develop bullshit. I like a delayed handoff when it works, but it seemed like every play was out of the shotgun or pistol formation and there was too much dicking around in the backfield. I’d rather see us hit the line fast 81% of the time, and dare I say, use a fucking lead blocker more often.

I don’t totally disagree, just pointing out that the shifts/motions aren’t the complexities that cause us problems.

If you’re going to run the option, please for the luv of all the cute kittens and puppies in the world, make sure that the QB understands how to read the end and make the correct decision of whether to pitch or keep.

Or better yet, change out of it presnap when defense is cheated playside.

Yeah and run a quick slant right behind those motherfuckers. Or flip the play call.

My thoughts as well. I think there are too many reads, and ti much reliance on too many players making the same read. Theres just too much perfection required all around.
Now that the offense is starting to look like the talent is elite, or closer to elite, and spread to all position groups (especially the OL), it's time to put more reliance on your guys just being better. Run what you're good at and dare them to stop it. Even Sark was willing to go to that tactic at times rather than always trying to be the play calling genius.
Eason going exactly the opposite direction Browning would go in the off season. Maybe the coaches finally allowed our QB to spend time working on his craft and preparing his body for competition.

Eason is the QB who gets frustrated with the play call knowing it doesn’t work and Audibles to the exact play the coaches don’t want and then throws a TD

Browning is the QB who audibles out of a Gaskin handoff because film study and presnap counting and then runs backwards 20 yards to take a sack on 3rd and 3.
