How great would it be

Gonna be running a spread pro style offense. NOT a read option spread like Florida, Oregon whose qbs run a lot. Just sayin. Cincys qbs ran 3-4 times a game on avg.

Try about 9 attempts per game. 103 attempts for the 1st and 2nd team qb, in 12 games.

And it's gonna be a read option offense, like Cincy.

Heard Ainge discuss this this morning. He actually that there are many variations of the spread and that Tennessee WILL NOT RUN THE READ OPTION SPREAD. He says they use the word Spread only in terms of using the entire field.... has more to do with alignment, not really philosophy. Not in terms of the qb consistently being a part of the running game because he's reading the end/olb to decide whether to give or keep the football.

Said it will be prostyle, getting players in space and that qb will need to be really athletic only in terms of moving the pocket to throw the ball, not because he's gonna run the style Urban ran with Tebow or Kelly ran with Oregon qb.

Said the focus will be on pace of play, no huddle, running as many plays as possible and not letting the defense substitute personnel.

Here's maybe a little insight from some CBJ quotes....

Jones came up the ranks as an offensive assistant, and he runs a fast-paced offense that most identify as a "spread" attack.

"I don’t like to use that term," he said, "because I think the word ‘finesse’ is associated with it."

The offense will be physical, not gimmicky, he said.

"We’re going to be a team that takes care of the football," Jones said. "We’re going to run a no-huddle offense. We’re going to be a physical style of offense and be a pro-style offense."

"@UTCoachElder: "@OandWgame: In the last 7 hours 500+ Vol fans committed 2 attend the O&W game. Keep it rollin #OW2013"

The coaches have already started hyping the game. Im curious how many people they can get to turn out.

Yeah. Dooley and Hammy were also committed to winning...

I can't afford "N"s until I get to pay the 13.5% tax rate that "off-shore" Romey does. Oops I did it again. :)

Romney didn't have to pay taxes this year, because they did away with the capital gains tax this year.

Perk of the office, all POTUS do it, one did it for 230 + days over 8 years. Guess who? :)

Yeah, back and forth to Texas. Not all over the f-ing world spending tens of millions of taxpayer $$$ like our current Marxist in chief.... 3x more golf in 4 years than bush in 8- you do the math chief..... But I digress.

We've got a coach, and a staff that are going to pull out all stops to bring those wins back to Rocky Top. Butch is relentless in his work ethic, and will not accept defeat by no means. Butch is selling recruits on the Tennessee brand, and tradition of Tennessee football. He understands what's important. Recruits see it too. I have full faith that he'll have us competing soon, and possibly land us a top 5 recruiting class if he can string together a couple good wins this year. I believe in him!

U just said he would accept defeat just do you know as long as there are means

Insult me all you like, it doesn't change facts. I stand by my point. If you had signed a highly rated recruiting class, you maybe could have generated enough buzz to get 80,000 there for the spring game. But you didn't.

The reason why doesn't really matter. I think fans have had plenty "working like heck" talk for a long time. My guess is that you'll have to show some real results before you can expect record-breaking turnouts.

Think about your "point"...even if we'd signed the number one class in the country 95 percent of them wouldn't even be enrolled yet....so what's the recruiting class got to do with this year's spring game attendance???

@MrHurd18: I have officially committed to play football at The University of Tennessee.

@ToddKellyJr6: I have officially committed to play football at the University of Tennessee #VFL

Is that good enough for you? Do you think Butch Jones can't recruit now? 2 of the state's top talents are committed to Tennessee this early on for the class of 14! We're on the rise!

"We’re going to be a team that takes care of the football," Jones said. "We’re going to run a no-huddle offense. We’re going to be a physical style of offense and be a pro-style offense."

1. Oregon QBs ran the ball 145 times during 13 games (11 per game), accounting for 21% of their teams carries.
Cincy QBs ran the ball 103 times during 13 games (8 per game), accounting for 21% of their teams carries.

Our offense will be very, I repeat, VERY similar to Oregon's. We will be a fast paced no huddle offense, like Oregon. And we will be a zone read team, like Oregon.

2. Are you claiming the zone read is gimmicky and not physical? I think any team that ever played USCjr while Lattimore was healthy, would tell you a completely different story.

3. CBJ calls it a pro style because it is a pro style! We use a lot of spread sets, like most all pro teams. We will run a west coast passing attack, like most pro teams. And we will use zone read option as the base of our running game, like a lot of pro teams are beginning to do (ie. Philly and Washington).
