huskeraddict Posted November 9, 2007 Share Posted November 9, 2007 Name Paul Johnson Coaching at Navy Midshipmen (Head Coach) Coaching Career 1981-82 - Lees-McRae (OC) 1983-84 - Georgia Southern (line coach) 1985-86 - Georgia Southern (OC) 1987-94 - Hawaii (OC) 1995-96 - Navy (OC) 1997-2001 - Georgia Southern (HC) 2002-Present - Navy (HC) Biography Much of Johnson's success has been predicated on his triple option flexbone offense, a run oriented attack that has led NCAA Division I-A/FBS football in rushing yards three of the last four years. Some have criticized the triple option as an antiquated, unbalanced system unfit for major college football, which may explain some BCS teams' reluctance to offer him a position despite his accomplishments at both Georgia Southern and Navy. Johnson has rebutted this argument in numerous press conferences and interviews, asserting that several top teams, including 2005-2006 national champion Texas and 2006-2007 national champion Florida, use various forms of the option. He has repeatedly stated that the superior athletes in power conferences could help the triple option flourish. However Johnson has also stated that if he had a good throwing quarterback he would use the pass more often. Quote Link to comment
