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.

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

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.

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

cougarmeister

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.

8/15/18 11:54am

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? 😉

Division Bell

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

Division Bell

8/15/18 11:57am

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

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

mulletino

8/15/18 11:59am

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

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

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

CarolinaCoug

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.

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

How very ARod

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"

Count Cougar

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

Lol, this dude is entering Craig James territory

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

QBarrister

Grimes should pull Hoge aside and quote

What Merrill did to his Son

Another guy with too many hits to the head

Uncle Bluto

8/15/18 4:12pm

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...
