[QUOTE="Techster, post: 383551, member: 360"] Something no one has brought up about Nate Woody: He's coached at schools whose offenses were option based. At Wofford, their offenses was VERY similar to CPJ's spread option. App Stat's option offense is more "modern" in terms of matching the passing of the modern game, but their offense utilizes skill players similar to most modern offenses. Some on here don't believe our offense makes a difference with how our defense performs, but I think that's false. There is no way our personnel gives our defense the same level of reps as other schools. I've written about it before, but other schools, especially in the ACC, have scout team QBs that were some of the top HS QB recruits in the land. Other schools have highly rated skill position players and OLs. It's not a secret that GT has struggled to recruit on the offensive side. Nothing against Jay Jones or Tobias Oliver, who are great players in a flex option system, but their passing ability would not get them recruited in other systems. Unfortunately, our defense doesn't get to match the game speed in practices. It's similar to what other teams face when they play us. Teams only have to deal with us once a year, so it's not so much of an issue. Unfortunately, our QBs and skill guys are what we have, and that's what our defense has to work with in practice. I think having a coach with a background that Woody has with Wofford and App State could prove beneficial. Maybe there are some things NW would tweak in practice that helps with the offensive talent disparity. Afterall, he's fielded some of the top defenses for the conferences he's coached in while working with those offenses in every practice. [/QUOTE]
