Ga Southern Question

[matfu]

Sorry guys, but I just haven't kept up with Paul Johnson.

How many years was he at Navy?

Is this his first year at Georgia Tech?

I assume he ran basically the same triple option at Ga Southern, Navy and Ga Tech?

What was his record each year at Navy (roughly)?

Where was he before Ga Southern?

Thank for any answers here.

Sorry guys, but I just haven't kept up with Paul Johnson.

How many years was he at Navy? 5

Is this his first year at Georgia Tech? yes

I assume he ran basically the same triple option at Ga Southern, Navy and Ga Tech? yes, IMO almost exactly

What was his record each year at Navy (roughly)? 2 wins first year 4 straight bowl games, I think 10 wins one year

Where was he before Ga Southern? OC at Navy, before that OC at Hawaii

Thank for any answers here.

Thanks. I had just missed that he was at Ga Tech now but with all the Bowden-Clemson hoopla, no way to miss it now.

Anybody know how many teams in FBS and FCS run a triple option offense?

He was actually at Navy for six seasons, if that is what you mean.

Hard to classify it as just triple option. Lots of teams run a similar offense out of the shotgun formation (see Florida/West Virginia). Air Force and Navy are still the only FBS teams that run a similar offense in the FBS that I can recall.

A couple years ago Furman had to play Georgia Southern, Wofford, and Nicholls State in a four week span. I think, at the time, they were the only three teams in the FCS that ran that particular offense.

Paul Johnson is one heck of a coach. He was working on his Masters degree at ASU when I was in high school near Boone. He was an offensive assistant coach for my high school team in 1979. Glad to see him get the Tech coaching job.

Welcome aboard! I didn't realize he had Boone ties. No wonder he's so successful. :)
