There is only one logical explanation for why the offense never changes:
No one on this staff (or past staffs) knows how to do it.
It's as simple as that. Think about it. None of these old guys are going to admit "yeah, I don't exactly know how to do one of those new offenses." Miles wasn't the only one who got passed up by the game. Then, we bring in a promising young OC who actually has results in Matt Canada. He takes one look at our system and says "Boy, this is fricked. We need a complete overhaul." This ruffles feathers. Testosterone flares. Canada gets fired (and paid) because of feelings. Now here we are again. Asking the Miles regime capos to run an offense they have no experience with or understanding of. If it was attrition and lack of seniors, there wouldn't be podunk G5 teams with freshmen QBs out there lighting it up. Nothing else makes any sense whatsoever and it's what we get for not totally cleaning house on that side of the ball. Spread offenses literally exist to make up for the lack of a dominant OL. We do not have a dominant OL and will not be getting one this year. And yet, we are stuck with the 1950 philosophy about man football between the trenches.
TL;DR - THE OFFENSE DOESN'T CHANGE BECUASE THEY DON'T KNOW HOW TO RUN ANYTHING ELSE AND WON'T ADMIT IT.
ETA: You have no idea how badly I want to be wrong about this.
