Maybe he should help his son learn how to pick up offensive schemes faster

so that Grimes can begin to lay down some more advanced schema on them. He's a great teacher (as many CFB coaches already know) and he's not going to bury his kids in stuff they can't handle yet. Time for the players to become students of the game so that he can implement more advanced concepts.

Bo Hodge, per Merril, said our playbook is like his little league play book -

I honestly don't care if they're running the same play over and over. Just win.

It's nice to know that the brainchild of 4 different coaches who are/have been OCs is "gimmicky"

Only 1 was a good oc and at Weber St for that matter

8/15/18 12:07pm

He didn't say it was a gadget or gimmick offense

Most college offenses are run at the HS level now. Very few NCAA teams run an NFL offense. But, ok.

8/15/18 11:58am

Agreed, Beau can only thrive in a HS offense

I believe we tried to implement an NFL-style offense and ditched it after 2 yrs

8/15/18 12:58pm

Correction - it was ditched after just ONE year.

Thanks for clarifying.

I'm not taking anything Hoge says right now as truth.

We'll see if that's accurate, but it was my first thought when they talked

Ash

What, you didn't find 8-10 offensive plays per quarter exciting? 😉

LSU players said something similar last fall camp. Said they learned it fast

Learned a non-Grimes offense fast last year? Cool.

mulletino

apparently it's very similar.

Mayor of Cougartown

8/15/18 12:01pm

And wasn't Grimes the run coordinator? If so, I would assume he might have

agree 100%

8/15/18 12:03pm

He didn’t say the whole offense was. He said they added something for Beau.

8/15/18 12:00pm

Football family. IOW hoge knows..he i bet loked Ty's offense

8/15/18 12:05pm

I doubt he was a fan of last years offense... Yikes!

Jericho

8/15/18 12:06pm

Sure he was when his son was playing.

8/15/18 12:07pm

From what I heard, Merrill said BYU is putting in a red-zone package for Beau

Captain Stubing

8/15/18 12:20pm

I'm fine with it. Our core offense has never been good enough to convert TD's

Ash

8/15/18 12:23pm

Agreed

Captain Stubing

8/15/18 12:25pm

The BSU team that went undefeated and beat Adrian Peterson and OU used gadgets to do it. I’m fine with that. I’d take

We saw how well a complicated offense worked for us the past two years

D.T. Survivor

8/15/18 12:36pm

We have seen lots of "gimmicky" stuff from very good teams. Tebow jump throw?

byuod

8/15/18 12:52pm

We wouldnt want the playbook to be "too complicated"

If I'm Beau I'm probably getting ready to spend the season on the bench.

Gadget plays certainly have their place. Especially when you are facing

QBarrister

Grimes should pull Hoge aside and quote

That's not what he said

ALC

8/15/18 4:23pm

And that his Dad would find them in his 12 Grade playbook. Ouch.

FanofBYU

8/15/18 4:39pm

Yeah I think Dad kind of overstated that

ALC

8/15/18 7:04pm

I like gimmicky...
