I wish he would've come up with a better name.

Considering tons of teams in college and pro run a hurry-up no huddle offense... but it's not the Hurry Up No Huddle


I think that's where people get confused

Yes indeed, the Great German People invented it in 1939.

No, but his version seems to be very effective.

I think Gus, if he is smart wont say a damn thing. Saban looks bad in this deal so far, and Gus saying much of anything just takes that light away.



Explain to me how Saban looking bad is really going to affect him. Is it going to cost him some recruits? He just signed the #1 class for how many years in a row now, so I guess no it's not really going to hurt recruiting. Is he going to be fined by his employer for being a poor representative of the company? Laughable right. Maybe it's his relationship with the media that will suffer? Again laughable right. I'm sure you can come up with something that Nick Saban is going to suffer through for "looking bad" in all of this but off the top of my head I really don't see "him looking bad" in all of this really having any adverse effect on him or the program in any way whatsoever.

You've been pushing this comparison for a few pots now, and I have to say, I support.

Also support the historical knowledge of german generals.

A former Auburn coach ran a sort of HUNH back in '99. 1899. This is a quote from John Heisman.

The team of ’99—my last at Auburn—was a great one. It only weighed about 160 (pounds per player), but its speed and team work were something truly wonderful. I do not think I have ever seen so fast a team as that was. It would line up and get the ball in play at times before the opposing players were up off the ground. You see it was a ‘stunt’ of ours to catch them off side and get the benefit of the penalty. Nowadays no team is taken by surprise by such lightning lining up; but that Auburn team of ’99 was the first to show what could be done with speedy play, and then it wasn’t long before all other teams were laboring with might and main to inject speed into their work.

Jack Pardee (aggie) when he was the head coach of the Houston Gamblers USFL. Jim Kelly (later Buffalo Bills) was his QB.

Pardee went on to coach at cougar high (aka u of houston).

Laval of BYU was the godfather. Hal Mumme learned from Laval. Mumme has a bunch of coaches sprouted from his coaching tree in D1 that run a variation of the HUNH.

It's Lavell and he wasn't really a HUNH coach he was very pass heavy though for sure. He knew that was BYU's best shot at competing.
