I've been confused on this for awhile. I keep hearing dump-offs and short routes associated with this offense but I'm still unsure of its aspects. What is the WCO is and how does it work? What are its benefits, drawbacks, and what kind of personnel do you need to run it? And would anyone want to see it run here?

Well Im not an expert on what it is but I can give you some points to it. There are some WCO that are very Pass oriented and thats where you get the short dump off passes and short crossing routes. Then you have a run heavy style like was used in Denver. Most passes are not vertical but slants and crossing routes. It was invented to counter the zone blitz that Pittsburgh was using. Im sure there's more but that's as much as I know.

I think it's the other way around actually... the zone blitz was a counter to the WCO. Dropping linemen into zones that would otherwise be vacant.

I like the WCO. We would actually do very well in a fairly modern, run balanced WCO.

May be... I will have to google that LOL.

ahhhh it was to counter the run-and-shoot offense.

      Damn back to 10th. I only caught the last 5 minutes but some of those 3's were horrible lol. In that close of game you can't be launching those many hail mary's when you could be chipping away from the foul line. I guess no one wanted to get in the paint and didn't trust the refs to give them the calls maybe? Gonna watch the highlights to get a better idea of the flow of the game

      I agree.  The Big 12 is a good conference, and he is the swinging dick in that conference.  If Bill Self retires, that sets Kansas back a bit, and Arizona moves even further ahead as the best team in that conference.  Arizona can crush west coast recruiting with USC / UCLA no longer being relevant for LA kids, and Gonzaga not being able to compete moneywise.   If Lloyd comes here, he will be second fiddle to Duke every single year in NIL and recruits.  Not to mention the entire SEC and Big East for kids who want to stay in those regions to play. This is why I keep saying go get Mark Few.  Has proven he can do more with less from an X / O perspective but can also recruit All American players and compete at a high level. He's a god at Gonzaga, but for $9M he'd make the move as that's 4x what he's making at Gonzaga, and makes him the highest paid coach in the country.

      Certainly not going to miss his constant whiffs on sacks and tackles.
