Potential Coaching Offensive Analytics

By: jobushokie on November 19, 2021, 2:36 PM | 6 comments

Just because Ive heard a lot of people say "I dont like this guy hes just an 'x' or we cant bring this guy in hes 'y' or I love this guy hes a homerun hire" etc.

I wanted to see how our offensive analytics from broad to some deep analytics over the last couple of years stacked up with some of the names Ive read as potential coaches

Datapoints:
*All averages are based solely on the time the coaces were there. I just ran it through 2016 when Fuente started, but obviously not all the coaches have been there that time * denotes years coaches were not the head coach at that school

Points per Game - obvious
20+ Gain Per Game - The number of plays that go for over 20+ yards
10+ Gain per Game - The number of plays that go over 10+ yards
Yards per Game - obvious
3rd Down Efficiency - obvious
Red Zone Offense - Touchdowns/Field goals as a percent of Red Zone appearances
Games under 30 Pts - The number of games in a season where the team scored less than 30 points
