My Thoughts on Coach Jones and His Offense (Note - Long)

Great post. This offense reminds me alot of Oregon. With the no huddle, you essentially tie the defense's hands, a bit. Limit their ability to substitute. Giving you a chance to get the looks or match-ups you want. Plus, as with Oregon, it has a tendacy to cause fatigue. Fatigue causes mental mistakes, and poor tackling. Then you get the big plays.

My only concern is this......wouldn't the no-huddle approach only amplify our defensive struggles, by lengthening the time they spend on the field?

Of course, "no-huddle" doesn't necessarily mean "Hurry Up". I'm sure a good coach, has a feel for the game. If his defense just got off the field, after a long 14 play, 8 minute drive, he might change the offensive pace. But Dooley did not. Many times, the defense would make a stop or force a fg. following a long drive. Then the offense would go no-huddle, throw three incomplete passes, and give it right back to them. That is just poor management.

Very Informative Bam and one of the most thorough yet concise reads I've seen here in a long time. FREAK make this a sticky post for all the other fans to read so they will understand what this hire/offense is about.

This looks like a write up over at smartfootball ...... Good analysis. A great running back that can cut back under over pursuing lb's after constant probing of the flank will do us wonders.

Truly insightful, researched & interesting post. Guess you didn't take journalism from the feet of John Adams, Jimmy Hyams or David Climer. GBO

Exceptional write-up, thanks for taking the time.

Also, as a side note, tl;dr applies only to those posts which:

1) are written without punctuation,
2) are written without paragraph breaks, or
3) are boring as hell.

Yours doesn't qualify.

Great read. Hopefully all of that translates to SEC wins. It does solidify my opinion that CBJ is a good hire!

Great insight. Thanks for posting.

Question: how does Bray fit into offense, and if it is geared more towards a dual threat QB(peterman) can it be tweaked short term to fit a pocket passer (Bray)

Edit- only took me 5 years to get 500 post, but I've got about 10,000 reads

CBJ noted in his pressed that he adapts his scheme to the strengths of his players. He noted that with the example of the QB position and running vs. drop back. He adapts scheme to talent.

Outstanding post and information OP.

Now is the time for all real Tennessee fans to unite and support our new Head Coach and footVol team.

It does NOT matter if you like this hire or not because the FACT simply is that CBJ is our new footVol coach and will be for several years.

All the negative, immatire, childish garbage needs to go elsewhere because it really DOES hurt our recruiting and right now our Vols simply NEEDS as many good recruits as CBJ can get to come to Tennessee and help rebuild our proud team.

If anyone thinks that recruits and their parents don't come here to VN to read up on our program and help make their decision on where they want to go play then they're delusional because in this computer age all recruits and their parents look for everything they can find to learn more about any program that's offered their kid an opportunity to play football and get a free education.

UNITE Vols fans and lets do all we can to help CBJ rebuild UT back to a consistent top 10 ranking, SEC Championship and another chance at a National Championship in the years to come!!!

VFL...GBO!!!

I think I'm going to like this guy. Maybe he can drag Vol football into the 21st century. We'll see.

This was very well written! Either part I or II could beat any journalism coming out of the KNS. You ought to send it as a letter to the editor! Thanks for posting!

Opposing teams "could" figure out what the placards mean, but it would take a ridiculous amount of time to watch each game on film and connect the dots as to what each imagine relates to on a week to week basis. You would have to put your money on them never changing the icon set. It would be too easy to just substitute occasionally to throw people off. It's better right off the bat because no audio is required and it's very easy to see.

You can also change the board for each game to prevent the defense from knowing the play. One could also simply change one square on the board to revise the entire meaning of the board. Lots of ways to get around the defense reading the board.
