From August 2017, a Notre Dame blog review of Patenaude's offense. Interesting. https://notredame.rivals.com/news/film-room-inside-look-at-temple-s-offense

And here's an interview soon after he was hired at Temple:

While I'd much rather that Collins had gotten outside his familiarity zone and made a bold choice by going after an OC such as Bob Stitt, Patenaude may work out. For Tech's sake, I hope so.

New article in the Athletic talking about Patenaude's plan for the offense. Sounds like he will take time to review film of the players, then see how they can be utilized. Sounds like he's open to working with what the players can do well and adjusting the offense over time, and not just cramming his offense down everyone's throat. A lot of what will happen depends on what the defense gives.

Most of that has already been written elsewhere, but since it's behind a paywall I won't directly quote from the article.

Same philosophy Thacker has expressed on D.
