Media reaction to Collins hire

I think if you're dumb enough to start bitching about comparing x versus y on offenses, you're butthurt and should get over it.

I'm not butthurt about anything. I like the hire. Just no real evidence the offense will be as good under Collins. Bradley likes to put down Johnson and is using dubious stats to do it

Comparing Temple's O to Tech's O on total points or total yards, as Bradley did, is dumb. There are fewer possessions in games with the option. He knows better but has a grudge against Johnson

Our offense this year had higher points per possession => unequivocally better offense

Bullshit. Games aren’t won on points/possession.

Bradley is a UGAg homer. Take it for what it is

Uh, yeah they are. You and your opponent will have the approximately the same number of possessions, so if your points/possession is higher in the game, you win.

The objective of the game is to have more points than your opponent, not to have as many points as possible.

Last time I checked, the game was decided by points per game not points per possession.

And when your goal is to intentionally reduce the number of possessions, you disadvantage yourself.

I’m sure you got tired of hearing “this isn’t an offense meant to play from behind”. Except it was true. One if the things I’m looking forward to the most about a new coach is hopefully no longer seeing us trot a running QB out for a possession where we throw 3 ööööing ducks down field because we have no other reasonable way to come back.
 
680 spending the first hour of the B&K segment talking about it with JoeHam. Since Kincaid is a Temple guy I figured he'd love the hire.

It will be different. It won't be 90% offense with 10% defense anymore. If defense improves, the offense doesn't have to shoulder the load anymore. It will be different, and hopefully better. But we'll see.
