Im just sitting wondering who is the first defensive minded head coach who will actually put his head together and hire an OC from the Briles or Leach tree.

As the head man, you can bend things to benefit your defense, and let the offense score 40+ a game.

D coordinators hate that style of offense because it puts your defense on the field too long. They score quickly or give the ball back quickly.

What's the average possesion time for Alabama's offense this year? I know they have studs everywhere but Saban has adapted over the past five years to faster offense and mobile QB's to defend.

And you just discovered why Bama has given so many points this year.
Exactly why their dominant games on D have been their lowest scoring on O

Problem with briles tree is he pooped on half their careers with that fiasco. The ones that got out before are in HC seats. Would love Kendal though. FAU fell off this yr with him gone whichnisncrazy with Kiffin there and Houston was a top 10 offense.

They are 3rd in the nation in points per game allowed and 6th in yards allowed. I don't think that qualifies as giving up a lot of points.

I know, but one day a couple of knuckleheads are going to make it work, change the game as we know it, and everyone will be wondering what took so long.

Leach almost had it with Grinch

There’s a lot of interesting stuff on Tony Franklin’s wiki page.

Tony Franklin is well known for owning and operating The Tony Franklin System Seminar. His copyrighted offensive system has been implemented by over 351 high school and college programs in 44 states across the nation,[24][25] grossing over $170,000 annually from his consulting services.[26] Several college coaches including Sonny Dykes at Arizona, Chris Hatcher at Murray State and Ed Argast at Fordham consult with Franklin about their offenses. Pro Football Hall of Famer John Hannah says of the system "If both teams have players who are equal in talent, this offense is impossible to stop".[26]

After taking the Offensive Coordinator job at Auburn, Franklin was forced to sell the ownership of his football consulting business to partners because of a SEC rule prohibiting coaches from participating in a clinic not on the institution's premises.[25] The system became known as The System Seminars . Since his departure from Auburn, he has again taken control of the business and gone back to the title "The Tony Franklin System".

Besides his offensive consulting work, Franklin has written a pair of football related books. In 2001, Franklin authored a nationally acclaimed book titled Fourth Down and Life To Go(ISBN 9780971428003), which chronicled his experiences with coaching football in Kentucky. The book detailed the inner workings of the Kentucky football program and effectively blacklisted him from coaching from 2001 to 2005 until he was hired at Troy.[27] He authored a second book in 2005 titled Victor's Victory(ISBN 9780971428010), which dealt with the sudden death of 15-year-old Hoover High School football player Victor Dionte Hill, who died from a cardiac arrest during one of Franklin's consulting sessions. The book urges schools and youth organizations to make automated external defibrillators universally available.

I was comparing them to themselves of years past.

This year they are giving up about a FG more a game pts wise.

Last year they only have up 20 pts twice in SEC Play and this year that's happened 4 times.

Their two shutouts this year have come when their offense has been human and not video game like.
