another thread had me remembering when Randy Shannon tried to hire Kevin Sumlin as OC but was shot down by the Admin and Shalala over salary. They both that O would destroy with south fla athletes
Also, yah he has his issues, but Mike Leach was denied twice for the job
Even though it’s not Air Raid but more power Spread, Dan Mullen was denied TWICE LOL!
Golden pursued pro style coordinators, Mark Richt pro style , Manny Diaz - pro style. Randy Shannon was only able to hire to pro style guys
This can’t be a coincidence
Folks can say “ well it’s gimmicky” it won’t win u anything. But many teams have won 10-12 games a season and conference championships. We have TOO MUCH speed and athletes for them to just sit on the bench. I remember when Urban went to Fla and they said his gimmicky spread offense won’t wrk against SEC defenses, well he won 2 national titles. Mike Leach bought Bob Stoops and okla 1.
Also if Oklahoma had ANY TYPE of defense they prob would have had at least 1 by now.
It is what it is, we have Enos and his O. But man this is spooky. It’s like that town in footloose that was trying to keep out dancing or that small town fighting tooth and nail to keep liquor from being sold in its stores
