Leach’s system on offense is very similar to Whit’s system on defense in that they are both consistently good and essentially plug and play. It does not matter who graduates, the next person just fills the role and the unit continues to excel. And, both coaches do it at non-blue-blood programs (can you imagine if they had the recruits that just fall into the laps of USC and UCLA?!).
It is for this reason that I was dreaming last week of the possibility of having Leach’s offense paired with our defense. It could be a lot of fun. I imagine that is somewhat what Whit had in mind when he hired Taylor. Although offense has been inept this year, I am still in the “support Taylor” camp. Not saying it will ever become what Leach has accomplished from a system perspective, but I am optimistic that it can become akin to it.
