Do all of the Tennessee coaches look like a penis?

From Head Coach of ASA College to analyst to tight ends coach. Quite a trajectory for the "creator of the RPO"

In 2001, Osovet started running an offensive scheme called a manipulation. 19 years later, the scheme known as manipulation plays are the face of offenses throughout the sport of football, as they are now referenced as RPOs.


pretty sure Vick was running an RPO offense in 99

His name could be Joe Brady, as long as old Gitmo is UT's QB it doesn't really matter.

T-formation antiquated by today's standards was dependent upon the RPO. So, no!

Magnavox created the CDG technology doesn't make them the best at it. Au Contraire!

You probably think Naismith was better at basketball than Jordan.

That guy most certainly wasn’t the “creator of the RPO”.

That would be most commonly attributed to Rich Rodriguez in college and a few Texas HS coaches like Art Briles and Chad Morris.

So basically Pruitt couldn’t find any interested external candidates. I’ve heard he’s an a-hole to work for and blames all his failures on others.

urbs says he and mullen implemented it by accident. they called for a read option. the wideout was supposed to run block but didn't and stayed out wide. when alex smith turned the corner, the cb went for smith which left the wideout open. alex smith saw the open receiver and threw it instead of running. urbs looked at mullen crosseyed and said "what was that." mullen shrugged his shoulders. urbs said "run it again!"
