How long does it take to install an Offense?

[BigDanT]

And when did the process start for Chip Long?

It's likely the offense will be demonstrably better this year and it'll be all for naught. The defense will continue to do Thacker type things and the entire staff will be washed away in the aftermath.

 

[smokey_wasp]

I don't think his offense is conceptually that different from Uncle Dave's, so they are building on what they know and adding terminology, not starting from scratch. In this case, one off-season ought to do it.

 

[RaiderJacket]

So far 3+ years. Hope this is the season it pays off.

If the offense is demonstrably better and the defense remains the same, we still win 6 games.

Problem wasn't getting the offense installed, it was maintaining the quality of players he came into the job with

Probably correct. But 6 won't be sufficient for Geff to keep his job.

I think it will.

 

[Diseqc]

I think it will.

I think he's got to win at least 7 and no embarrassing losses

100-0 can't happen again

If 7 is the bar, it'll either be a fun season with a much improved team/program, or we go hunting for (hopefully) a big time head coach. Either way, memorable year.

6 to keep his job, IMO. Tough schedule. 8 wins for ACC COTY.

I don't think any "big time" head coach is coming here. We're not that attractive and don't have the money to pay all that much.

Closest to a big name we could get is Mullen. And even he is probably out of reach.

I hope this is correct. He needs to win big or move on.

There are 4 new coaches in the ACC Coastal: Duke, Miami, UVA and VT. It’s as easy a schedule as we could hope for.

Maybe but asking sims to do different things like one check and run. Gotta get rid of the ball quick.

I don't know about that. He's spending the year helping at Lake Oconee and lives in Greensboro.

I'd support hiring Mullen. Just think he's likely bound for another lower tier SEC program

 

[BuzzLaw]

I remember watching PJ’s first spring game and thinking it was going to be a depressing season. It seemed like we fumbled every other play.

But by week 1, we looked like we knew what we were doing (even though we didn’t know much and still fumbled a good bit).

So I think it depends on the discipline of the players.

I would’ve said this before his nosedive at Florida. Why do you think that happened?
