Thoughts on Silverfield-Cramsey Offense
/ no idea how quick it is to install, but in the modern era of football, every game of every season counts and no program can afford to install anything tracking towards 2030. As fans, offense installation time is not an acceptable excuse in year 4 of portal era. An average of 4 P4 OCs each year perform offensive turnarounds of 60+ rank improvements in year 1.
/ That said, Cramsey was on my OC wishlists before we announced hiring Petrino back in November 2023. He remained on it.
Memphis Offense Rank vs. SoS
Norvell era - 11.5 / 80.3
2021 - 51st / 115th
2022 - 59th (first year) / 78th
2023 - 19th / 101st
2024 - 23rd / 114th
[Garbage Time excluded as it should be.]
Assuming 40th ranked offense next year, and 50th ranked defense against a Top 15 SoS
90%+ chance - 6 regular season wins
75%+ chance - 7 regular season wins
< 40%% chance - 8 regular season wins
I personally like that (from what I’ve seen) he likes to run the ball, doesn’t mind trick plays, and is geared towards a running QB

What’s Muschamp doing these days

Those SOS’s are pathetic. Silverboy won’t know what to do when he gets into an SEC schedule

Maybe, Maybe not.....
Hard to quantify thus far for these reasons.
1. How will his talent level jump in recruiting and NIL/Portal. Thus far it seems to be an improvement.
2. How will his staff look with regards to experience and ability compared with his staffing at Memphis.
3. Will his enthusiasm, desire, and drive keep moving in a positive direction? HDN won several games because of his ability to fire up the players....
4. Will he be able to keep a few of these players around to develop and have a great year with NIL, etc. Arkansas players give a bit of an edge on the team often in the past. Are those days long gone?
I am not sold on him, but I have come around to 50/50... medium. Just existing as a fan currently.

I'm not sure if he's what we need, but I was always more of a fan of him than Golesh.

He was 2-1 against the SEC at Memphis FWIW, but of course he won’t get to play us anymore for one of those lol

Got in some kind of trouble, can’t remember what it was, stepped down from DC at Georgia to being an analyst.

Correct. No one needs to be speaking "Hoganese" or in year 3 and only knowing 10% of that vaunted Chad Morris offense. It always was and always will be an excuse
Need to plan on new players at every position every year. Screens, slants, pick plays, RPO, counter, short yardage same at every school. After that you get 10-15 plays. Lose the guys in the colored polos and the guys holding up the sheets to shield them. That is all a bullshite distraction

Based on what Silverfield has said thus far it sounds like those excuses aren’t acceptable
If excuses are given, that falls at the feet of HY for incompetence in hiring & not firing sooner

Did you know Silverfield had connections to Muschamp?
Watching this interview of Silverfield & he was roommates with Muschamp’s brother, Mike Muschamp in 2001.
Will tried to hire Silverfield as a GA at Auburn once Will became the DC there in 2006. It fell through because of GA # rules. Silverfield went on to be a GA at UCF instead.
Starts talking about the Muschamp’s at the 22:00 mark

2-2*
He did beat Iowa State and WVU (post season scrimmages), and Florida State (2-10 record).
His best win was 2021 vs Miss State, but somehow Memphis managed to go 6-6 that year.
