The mind of CJH

[Dudleys87]

It just has to be asked and opinions good or bad are welcome:

Is he a master of his craft when it comes to scheming/play calling?

Is he the best in the game today?

If not who has a strong case to be ahead of him?

Finally, do you think the offense has peaked, just started to show it’s versatility, or just scratching the surface of what it could be?

The only X’s and O’s Coach I would put on his level in the SEC is Kiffin.

From a game manager, Heupel gets favored. Kiffin still gets a bit greedy on 4th downs when taking the points would serve him better.


I don’t think the offense can play a better game than they did vs Bama. I guess if they cut out turnovers. It would be a better performance. Had Hooker nailed Keyton on that 4th down for a touch down and the other deep ball that Keyton misjudged, the Bama game would have been a 60 point performance.

I think the only question left to answer about CJH is his ability to retain and hire staff. You know other teams are going to be coming for his offensive staff. Will he be able to hire top notch replacements? If necessary will he be willing to make changes on the defensive side if they need to be made?

CJH is number #1 in my book.

I am an offensive guy and extremely like his offense. CJH is going to score regardless of the opposing defense, and in today's college football landscape, a team must score points to be competitive and a CJH team can score points!

Additionally, I am glad CJH is our coach meaning we do not have to play against his teams especially with coaches similar to the past 3 we've had. Also I am confident other teams, namely Oklahoma and Missouri, are kicking themselves for not hiring CJH. And we dodged a big bullet by getting CJH instead of Coach Elliot.

Thank goodness for many reasons CJH is a VOL!!

Don't understate the importance of Golesh. You've got two excellent offensive minds feeding the playcalling, scheme, and playbook. We've seen quite a bit of the playbook, but there's so much more.

You’re absolutely right, and unfortunately I don’t think we hold onto him for much longer. I think he will be a HC in a few years. Hopefully it’s not in the SEC

His ability to locate and relentlessly attack the weak spot is huge.

this offense does 3 things really well
1) iI makes the defense have to show what coverage they are in pre-snap
2) Because of #1 the QB knows where the ball is most likely to go pre-snap
3) It makes the defense have to be great tacklers in space because the WR are spread all the way to the sideline.
4) bonus - it scores points in bunches

Edit: It also causes confusion on the defense because of the speed at which the ball is snapped. By snapping the ball quickly it does not give the defense time to think. I predict in the future we will start seeing 3-4 corner backs on the field as safety's cannot cover our slot receiver's one on one.

But then we will hammer the run. The run game is the 3 headed monster to this offense.

To add to this excellent list: the speed of execution also prevents defenses from substituting the way they would like.

I saw a video last night showing how every defensive adjustment is exploited. We used the H back to lead block runs up the middle. Then Alabama had to come out of their 2 deep safety look to stop the run. The seam pass to Hyatt was possible because the safety took 3 steps to the right. That’s all it takes.
