What kind of spread does Butch run? What kind would he prefer to run?

A true HUNH that is run heavy like Gus?
A passing heavy spread like Sumlin?
Balanced spread option like Urban?
The Hugh Freeze either score on 60-yard touchdowns or punt spread?

Hugh wants to be somewhere in between Gus and Urban, FWIW.

Admittedly, I didn't watch much Tennessee football last season.

TIA

He tries to run Petrino's scheme with less creativity and success

Spread Option HUNH.


At least we run that now that Dobbs is the QB.

We increased our Average rushing yards per game by over 106 YPG when he took over.

It should be interesting to see what happens this year.

He runs a similar system to what Rich Rod is/has been doing down in Arizona/WVU.

It's a run first spread. It should be fun to watch this year, as this will be the first season that we'll run the tempo that Butch has been aiming for. We started to get a better picture of what that's going to be in the Iowa game last year. It's not going to ever be at the speed that Oregon runs it at(by design), but it should be a lot closer than these last 2 years. Cycling Worley out and bringing Dobbs in changed the dynamics of the offense in a big way. With Dooley's QB's no longer on the roster, the offense that you'll see this coming year should be a better indicator of what's to come going forward.

I wouldn't be surprised to see us not to far behind AU's pace of play moving forward.

It should be fairly run heavy with Dobbs, Hurd and Kamara. There was a noticeable difference last year when Dobbs was inserted into the starting lineup and I would expect even more rushing attempts with the improvement of the OL and the addition of Kamara.

I'm not really sure what kind of play caller our new OC will be compared to Bajakian but it can't possibly be any worse.
