ND offense is not spread option. Did they use some of the plays? Yes. A lot of teams do.You act like they ran it like Oregon. Kelly's offense is not spread option.
Nobody is going to jump into Jimbo's offense and produce great no matter how good you are. All of the QB's that have succeeded sat and learned for at least a year. Golson played like I expected. He wasn't bad until this last game. MacGuire has been in the offense for four years. The change had to be made.
Kelly's offense with Golson was a 1 read spread option offense..Golson never passed the ball under center last year with Notre Dame and they ran 4 wide sets with the A back pretty often..It definitely wasnt pro style by no means...I just think Jimbo's ego got in the way with this Golson situation I think he thought he could turn Golson into Russell Wilson
