Do you guys realize how good Liam Cohen is?
- Thread starter Tubbyfan78
- Start date
And....third drive starts with deep shot (that is incomplete for like 100% of the time this year) and now it's one score game
We could have Steve Spurrier in his prime as OC and he would struggle under Stoops's philosophy of milking the clock every dang play.
While Stoops does need to own some of the offensive issues.....but seems like fans on this board see no wrong in Coen. This is his offense this year and it's been a mess. So he needs to own a bit does he not?
He's getting out play called by a Missouri OC. Just think about that. But of course our fans lack iq of sports. Think he's good.
You may be right. Our offense two years ago was pretty much run CRod, throw short to Wandale or run Levis. That wasn't complicated.
This aged well.
By the 4Q, we are hearing reports of former NC State assistants ripping UK’s offensive approach.
Worst post of the year. He’s trying to fit a spread QB into pro style and it’s been a disaster.
1. Coen has had a bad year....no argument from me.
2. But what is the big boner so many have with running hurry up stuff? NFL teams typically huddle, run the play clock down for adjustments. As long as we execute (which we didn't today).....I don't care how fast we play...just score the ball when you get it.

I think a lot of us give him the benefit of the doubt because we have a history of coordinators who previously played a high flying style suddenly start doing the exact same slow paced grind it out stuff as their predecessors under Stoops, so at least from our outside perspective, there seems to be a common denominator there. I wouldn’t go so far as to say Coen is blameless though. He does have to own what seems to be a general lack of improvement from a lot of our highly recruited players on the offensive side.
It's more about tempo helps simplify the defense for the qb and we ask transfers to learn pro language and calls and reads etc. in 2 months before the season starts
I'm not goign to act like Stoops is innocent but...
1 Neal Brown at WVU isn't all that high flying. \
2. Shannon Dawson has done zilch after UK
3. Eddie Gran....he was in C-USA at Cincy
4. Scangerello has been a NFL journey man
5. Coen....has been really good in year 1.....meh year 2
I think Stoops is for sure part of the offensive blame.....but Coen is far from "it's all Stoops making him do this". Coen is the one forcing balls to Barion Brown, his buddy Woodard is the WR coach and worst part of the team by far, very penalized unit, etc.... So why it's always Stoops and Coen is the golden boy on this board is not reality.
