Official GT announcement, OC and DC

[Whiskey_Clear]

at least on paper, the new OC looks like he'll be opening up the offense and throwing it more - a welcome change from the past 2 years. Welcome aboard and good luck!

I just hope a decent percentage of those throws are completions....to our guys.

Does the defensive guy run a four man front? I just don't like the 3-4 for pass rushing.

Funny some of the best pass rushing teams run a 3-4 defense.

So have some of the worst. A lot depends on who those 7 guys are.

The upside is that hopefully these guys are cheap. Collins is going to run the defense so the DC hire shouldn't be a concern. If the offense faceplants then hopefully Patenaude gets replaced in a few years and the job will be much more attractive if we recruit the way Collins is hoping.

Posted that as well. but the other side is these guys have a lot to gain.

Now u triggered me = 2017 our last 9 completions 5 to us 4 to them.

Glad to see staff coming together

Woody’s defense was very successful at App State and fun to watch. It was easy to get excited about. I’m looking for reason to be similarly excited about these new coordinators.

I’m very excited by the defensive staff, and cautiously optimistic on the offensive side. Geoff Collins has pretty much had good to great defenses at every stop, and the Temple D under Thacker put up some good numbers. I am on the optimistic side in how I see our players, and think we have some good athletes on our roster that the new coaches can look at with unbiased eyes and figure out the best ways to use their talents.

Someone tell me how to feel.

I use my hands

Are we going to write a letter to the ACC office and let them know we plan to pass next year so Duke and VT won't need an extra week of practice?

Spit my beer!

Good luck to the new coaches.

CGC has a right to hire his own staff. It's on him, so I say we sit back and see how this plays out. Gonna have trouble getting used to this forward pass thing, though. What'll they think of next?

Question: We will be moving from an offense rating of 17th to that of Temple’s, 56th. Is this an improvement because we’re passing more?

I've heard of a concept called Shotgun formation?

Hahahahaha

Actually, we will look just like about 98.7% of all other college football teams. There will be no improvement, we will be somewhere in the middle of the entire pack.

Even if Patanuede doesn’t turn out to be a great OC I think his scheme will translate well with our current roster.

Much better than Temple's. You don't have much of an RPO when your QB has 51 yds rushing for the season.

"The Tech Wildcat" - Oliver and student body around right end

At the 10 yrd line Tech shifts in to the under center spread option and runs the qb follow (midline).

Fullback and the Tight End. Those players do everything, I hear.

Wait...my memory is a bit foggy on this, but isn’t it Full End and Tightback?

Are we getting Temple's players, too?

No. We aren’t. But shouldn’t the reason to change be to improve the offense?

I’ll wager a$100 today that we don’t finish in the top 20 offenses next year. Even if we do pass more.
