re: Kristi Malzahn Interview

Malzahn was named the offensive coordinator at Auburn University by first year head coach Gene Chizik on December 28, 2008. Malzahn is known for his no-huddle offensive philosophy. In January 2003, he published a book and instructional video titled Hurry Up No Huddle -- An Offensive Philosophy. Many leaders in the profession have been critical of this system, as it increases the total amount of plays and decreases the amount of recovery time players have between plays, thus causing more contact, more injuries and thus puts players at greater physical harm. Given the lack of long-term health benefits or any fund provided to players, further increasing demands on the "student athlete" is a bad thing and the "no huddle" offense is leading to further known and unknown future consequences that should be investigated by the NCAA.
