If Helfrich could design the best offensive scheme for the team and teach it during practices and work with the folks on the sidelines during game time when not on the field and Ensminger was calling the plays from the booth, would that work?

I sure like Ensminger calling plays from the booth with a Helfrich play book than I do with a Cam Cameron play book.

I know we don't want to run at the pace that Oregon did in years past. Don't you believe plays were put together in sets in that scheme? How can a coach in the booth or on the field be calling fresh plays each down when they are snapping the ball within 7 to 10 seconds?

I just think this "who calls the plays" may be one component of the offense that can be delegated at certain times of a game. Sure, there are going to be critical times when the Head Coach pulls rank and makes a decision to go for it a certain way and likely others where the OC does the same.

With the same talent across the board, the talent devised scheme, the teaching and the ability to see things the majority of other coaches don't catch well enough to teach and then to effectively adjust play is the most important component to winning on offense.

You guys give Helfrich too little credit for his offensive work and successes.
