If you have a problem with the plays per game stats as it relates to up tempo offenses, take it up with George.
PPG gives a rough idea of the tempo teams use in their offensive scheme. It's not, nor was it ever intended, to be an end-all-be-all breakdown of how a team utilizes the HUNH. You're intentionally misrepresenting George's post.

It's used when the offense finds something that's working to prevent defensive substitutions (hint: that's the sticking point) and slowed down when it stops working until the offense reads another chunk play or series of plays that will work.

The reason people called it gimmicky was that one of it's core tenants was to prevent substitutions and blur the line on OL down field. Throw in all the speed sweeps and trick plays and walla.

Agree or disagree with that, whatever. But those were plain as day the backbone of the "gimmicky high school offense" cracks.

And once again, our run offense has zero to do with that. So the origins of this thread still make no sense
