Yeah, clearly that's the relevant metric, not his suffocating defenses at the school he's returning to coordinate again. :so:

Stoops will be in for a big surprise when he realizes that the offenses in the Big 12 are quite a bit different than they were last time around. That, plus he won't have Venables around to help any more.

Scout (Free) - Herman Wants Points By Land or By Air

Herman Wants Points By Land Or By Air

When it comes to coordinating the Ohio State offense, Tom Herman is ready to hit the ground running. Unless, of course, throwing turns out to be a better option. And speaking of the option, expect to see some of that, too.

In five years as an offensive coordinator in the NCAA Division I FBS, Herman has already proven he knows how to craft an attack that can move the ball in a variety of ways, and the Cincinnati native knows there will be no time to waste when spring practice rolls around.

“I wouldn’t expect it from our fan base,” he said. “We’ve got to do a great job and already have the pieces in place. If that means we’ve got to run four football plays but we run them so well that it’s going to look efficient and well-organized, hard-nosed, tough football then that’s what we’ll do. As we learn and grow and our players understand then we’ll start adding piece by piece by piece, but to expect a grace period would be foolish for me.”

"The field is 120 yards long and 53 and a 1/2 yards wide and the defense only has 11 human beings to cover that much grass, so we're going to use space and numbers to our advantage, put stress on the defense in terms of using the quarterback in the run game and have him be a viable option," Herman said. "We're going to take advantage of any of the mismatches we can create out there in space with our athletes on the opposing athletes."
