[QUOTE="AE 87, post: 194249, member: 195"] I think that this board is capable of discussing, and has discussed, X' and O's. However, the OP in this thread begins with "the concept does not exist with Paul." So, the conversation being introduced is not one about scheme but an ignorant attack on the coach. Furthermore, it was introduced after the a game in which we had more yards/carry than any game after the first two except Pittsburgh, more yards/play since the first two except Pitt and UVA. We did that with a RS Fr QB playing his first snaps since last two plays of CU and a couple of series vs Tulane. The problem that I have with much of the chatter is that it suggests the problem is with the scheme, or otherwise coaching. From 2011 to 2014 (after all of the players from under Chan had left), we averaged the third best scoring offense in points/drive versus power 5 opposition: #9, #9, #23, and #1. We were #43 in 2008, #2 in 2009, and #37 in 2010. Our average ppd v pwr5 (or BCS AQ) for the 7 years of 2007 to 2014 was #4. The basic scheme and coaching today is basically unchanged from a very successful offense. So, yes, we are currently #38 and are having our worst offensive performance under CPJ. However, when you look at how well we've performed over the last 7 years, it seems to me that the suggestion that the problem is scheme or coaching is crazy. To make that case, one would have to bring more data. Furthermore, all offenses--as far as I can tell--operate within a philosophy. They aren't just random plays you like you might find in a video game menu. We have slant routes, for example, within our Choice and Switch concepts, iiuc, but we're not going to run the slant which is one of the base plays for the West Coast offense. We're also less likely to run any quick slant when our starting QB is 5'10" and when our OL is struggling to get any kind of protection, let alone open short targeted passing lanes. So, as I've said before, this site has had and will have X's and O's discussions, but if you want a forum for shouting chowder without being challenged, then you may like gtsportstalk more. [/QUOTE]
