If he just goes from scoring 10 ppg to 24ppg, that is not good enough... We need to blow away these teams ranked 100+ in Sagarin... otherwise, the weak schedule will just be masking his inadequacies.

For those that feel that Detmer's offense is too complex right now, Steve Young on PTI gave some good advice to

Real offensive gurus get a lot out of a little. They play to the strengths of

Experienced ones do... the brain is there, Ty just needs to learn to be an OC

I don't think that takes a lot of experience. Anae was always good at that

Jericho

Anae's O wouldn't have done jack against LSU, UU, and Wisc

It's likely it would have fared better than 10 ppg. That's historically bad

It was great against Michigan...

Don't get why people think Anae's offense was so good.

Didn't do as bad as BYU has done under Detmer. Scored more points vs P5 & BSU

What were his points his first 2 years.

Cnation

9/22/17 8:47pm

30-40 pts a game w/ multiple 50+ pt games.

Strength of schedule?

Cnation

Love Rob, but remember he'd been part of coaching a very good offense

jomo

9/22/17 12:39am

Ty has a lot to prove before we can even guess that he has a higher ceiling

Jericho

9/22/17 12:54am

Agree to an extent, but you're too far out on the ledge...

jomo

9/22/17 1:12am

If it were just this season, I'd probably lay off the guy, but he already had a

Jericho

Um, no.

lol, ok. Some of you guys have your heads buried in the sand

"own that?" Please be more specific.

It is a complete fallacy that there is not talent. Talent is there, and it's higher than Bob was playing with.

How can you be so sure?

That's just a ridiculous statement... Robert's experience

jomo

Playing to the strength of your personnel is common sense. Not rocket science

Jericho

9/22/17 1:19am

So tell us, what are our strengths... what would you have done differently?

jomo

9/22/17 1:30am

I've spoken about this on the board ad nauseam

Jericho

9/22/17 1:51am

Not necessarily - Implementing the offense Ty and KS want to run is MUCH more

OGSuperfan

9/22/17 10:07am

Yep, but the last thing we need is a revolving door at OC like utah. We don't

SUAVO

The last thing we need is to have an OC that takes BYU to last place offensively

Bobmarleyjr

9/21/17 6:13pm

Obviously

SUAVO

9/21/17 6:20pm

Fairly sure there is some gray area between that and Utah.

Lip Gallagher

9/21/17 6:26pm

Does anyone w/ credibility really think the O is too complex?

goldy

I bet you have no idea what's happening between the huddle and the ball being released by the QB on passing downs.

Save it.

Gosh, you're right, I have no idea. Thx so much for the lesson, coach.

9/22/17 1:28pm

It's more the pass plays take too long to develop & based upon beating coverages

Bobmarleyjr

9/22/17 2:27pm

You say it as if this is the only offense doing this & the players 1st time

Bobmarleyjr

9/22/17 2:25pm

Which is why you hire a coach w/ experience. 7-10 years minimum for OCs.

mantis mutu

No. Experience doesn't mean you're good. History usually is best predictor

Bobmarleyjr

9/22/17 12:10am

My point: He had NO history. You don't hire that--certainly not as an OC.

mantis mutu

9/22/17 2:33pm

Would have been nice if he had at least even been on a D1 staff

Jericho

9/22/17 12:35am

For sure. Anae being OC & HC at a JC powerhouse like Ricks made him a worthy

It's a good point, but I'm not nearly as pessimistic on how long it will take..

What will you say if we lose the next 4 games? I hope not, but does winning
