[QUOTE="TheGridironGeek, post: 250898, member: 1898"] This is totally naive and just an "eye test" observation. I have no real complaint about CPJ's offense. He's the master of an entire school of offensive football and a gem of the game. CPJ's losses at Tech have been a combination of lackluster defense, size/speed/talent disadvantage, mental errors etc. Nothing to do w/ x's and o's. But Navy looks more fluid to me on offense. When I think of the GT offense, I visualize blockers lurching around and hesitating at times. Even the QB's (until JT came along) seemed to enjoy planting a foot in the wrong direction & taking their time about it before finally running toward the hole. CKN's version at Navy is a ballet. Perfectly orchestrated gears in motion, no wasted movement from anyone including the ball carrier. Maybe it's a product of GT having NFL-caliber talent at some positions & average talent at others. Some GT linemen are slow, giant maulers while others are smaller and quicker. Navy literally _can't_ have enormous road-grader linemen because it's against regulations for guys to be too big in training. And Navy's skill players are all clones of the same average-speed, average-or-smaller-size, versatile, disciplined role-player. So maybe the Midshipmen are so interchangeable, so uniform, and such bright-eyed overachieving kids that it's easier to get all 11 guys to execute in unison. Or I'm crazy. After all, the 2014 Tech offense was one of the best 3 or 4 college offenses I have ever seen. But Navy does seem to execute the Flex with more fluidity and grace on a consistent basis. BTW they're currently 3-0 with a backup QB having played almost the entire time. [/QUOTE]
