His x and o's are the same offense that the pro's run, that is how he recruits. The kids see that and think this is what will get them to the NBA. Unless you have super talent.it won't work in college because they can pack it in the lane, can't do that in the NBA. A good defensive coach can stop cal's dribble drive.
He doesn’t really run the dribble drive any more.

What is it then?
More of a weave/hand off, GO! They don't have spacing, that's a hallmark of the Dribble Drive. Most of the time, there are two "post" players in, or near, the lane. The dribble drive is based on 4 spread perimeter players, to open up the floor. You rarely see that from UK. IMHO, Cal's best half court offense would be none. Treat every possession like a fast break. As soon as ball control is obtained, all 5 players sprint to the goal, with spacing. Shooters, unless involved in the initial transition break(2 on 1, or 3 on 2), spot up. The defense HAS to go to the middle to stop the ball, and most of the time, that would be multiple players, ON INSTINCT. If a paint opportunity happens, take it, and the trailers are in great position for a put back. If not, a quick pass or two would result in an open shot for somebody, because the defense is still on its heels, and trying to find their man. That would result in more open shots, and more possessions. Again, just MHO, but it would be a hell of a lot better than the BS half court shit we see from them every year.

For what it is worth, I’m hearing definitively that Liam Coen will be announced OC in the coming weeks. NFL schedule makes it challenging but the deal is all but done. Also hearing a couple QBs he may bring with him but don’t want to mention names until I can confirm. Good news for the cats!

Ok Ollie, I hope you’re right. We won’t roast you as bad here though if you’re not.

There maybe more players in the portal from UK but when you look at the offense: As of today UK has lost 5 WR and 1 TE and 1 RB to the portal

With the recent pedo sympathizers and how both those threads got deleted I’m not putting anything out there.

4 years D1. Started every game. 7 years NCAA coaching D3, 4 years D coordinator, 3 Offensive Coordinator. All 7 Recruiting Coordinator. Post NCAA (during first marriage) 2 time state champion, 4 appearances in 6 years.

Im on the sidelines.
Let's see here..

If one were attracted to underage individuals, what type of career path would that individual seek out to support their secretive, illicit addiction? Hum..

You can't get there from here.
Looks like Utah is going to eliminate USC from the playoffs.
I hate OSU with a passion. I know they will move OSU up but I'd hate to see two Big ten(under achieving) teams in the playoffs. Guess I'm a bulldog and hornfrog fan for the next month.

Why not? I think it’d be awesome to see Florida playing Michigan this week At Michigan.

Cold weather games are great
Do you follow sports? The Big Ten usually gets hammered by the SEC. You need to look at the games for the last....15 years.

Given the results they should move the Big ten to a D2 status.

They probably couldn’t win it this year but I think Bama has as good of an argument as OSU, even having two losses. They lost 2 games by 4 points on game ending plays. Would’ve beat TN if they make their FG and LSU had to get a 2 point conversion. Both road losses if I’m not mistaken OSU got their brains beat out at home.
