[Vol_sanity]

From Twitter...thoughts?

This would be HUGE.

 

[Billy Ratliff]

This would be HUGE.

Yeah that would be allsome

 

[CA_Vol]

This would be HUGE.

I think you mean YUGE.

 

[Vol_sanity]

This would be HUGE.

I just realized reading on Twitter that Long was at Memphis and was the guy that left the voicemail to Hurd throwing shade at Butch...lol

 

[Boston Vol]

Easier to read

 

[HoptownVol]

Wait, Long from ND? Cool.

 

[UTgrad2015]

What exactly will his role be?

 

[sport3500]

This is a huge acquisition.

Offensive Analyst.

Analyzing the offense.

Amazing response thank you

Amazing response thank you

In all fairness, he didn't have much of a question to work with.

So... we have tons of offensive coaches who never analyze our offense, and this guy is supposed to do something that no one on our staff can do.

Maybe I should have clarified my question. What does he bring to an offense that OC can’t already do? Chaney can’t “analyze” our offense with x amount of years of experience running offense?

We get a young, former Power 5 OC to put in the office and film room for next to nothing. It's a no brainer if for no other reason than to use the contacts in his phone.

I would assume the number and quality of analysts determine the volume and quality of data that can be processed for a game plan.

Good get!

Butch is an intern.

Why would he leave an OC position for that?

I think when they fired him, he had to leave.

It helps with Chaney’s workload which helps the entire program. Chaney may delegate responsibilities to a specific analyst for the purpose of studying certain types of plays he wants some information on. A greater number of analysts may produce more information. JMO.

That makes sense... thank you

BN is doing double duty by bringing in players and coaching assistants. Give the man a raise.

He got fired in December.
