It’s the same offense. Tailored to the personnel each season.

A dog and a duck can both quack. Doesn't mean there are two ducks.

Tailoring is a synonym for changing.

I linked a quote from BOB a couple weeks ago in one of these threads (saying I wasn’t worried about hiring a new OC) where BOB straight out said it was not his offense but it was “Alabama’ offense”. Saban has said that numerous times too. They may be different in play calls , rhythm , preferences etc but it is the Alabama offense . That won’t change

And look at the origin of our coordinators too. They all have roots in the Perkins-Erhardt system. Even those off the Carroll tree. It’s most likely any new OC will have ties to this system.

It’s still all in there for a coordinator to choose what is best for the QB. Tua and Bryce are better at RPOs than Mac . There were still a lot of slow developing pass plays called this year. It is never just RPOs only anyway . One reason we all look at it differently is the weapons we had while sark was here and we had plenty of time to run WRs all the way across the defense whereas this year at times it had to be gone quickly or Bryce would get killed
