Sole OC is my understanding, unless they promote Meacham back to co-OC (which I guess may still be possible).
So he (Cumbie) would report to Kill (or the "Head Coach of the Offense") as I understand it.
Not sure if the position coaches will still report to Cumbie or all directly report to Kill.
All a bit confusing, but whatever.
Got it, thanks for clarifying. But Cumbie will be sole OC, which I think was the point of the question.No, the way the paysite and the Startlegram were referencing it, Kill will be an OVERSEER of all the aspects of the offense and report his thoughts, findings and recommendations to GP. He does no coaching and Sonny is the sole OC. All the offensive position coaches are under Sonny's tutelage, including Meach, which will be interesting within itself.

Cumbie underperforms 3 out of the last 4 years, and basically is given full and complete reigns of the offense all to himself. Got it, cool.
Or you could view it through the lens of "Sonny has a brief time to turn things around or else someone else with play calling experience could be promoted to take the reigns".Cumbie underperforms 3 out of the last 4 years, and basically is given full and complete reigns of the offense all to himself. Got it, cool.
Think of it as an experiment. Cleaning house and starting over would also be an experiment.
The path Coach Patterson has taken is less risky. If it doesn't work out, then he can always evict everyone and start over.
Not a coach, so wouldn't likely be the case (without formally naming him and firing someone else).Maybe Kill is "OC in waiting" if Sonny Cumbie doesn't get his [ Cumbie’s red zone playcalling ] together?
I mean..... perhaps a year late here? Basically 2019 was an experiment of running it all back, 2020 is an experiment of mostly running it back with some tweaks, and if it fails, 2021 will be an experiment with new staff. Experimenting for three years doesn't sound like a good plan.
So....Cumbie is the Assistant (to the) Regional Manager in all of this?
This is what our offense has ranked in the Big 12 the last 4 years...
- 2016 -- 7th in yards, 8th in scoring
- 2017 -- 5th in yards, 5th in scoring
- 2018 -- 8th in yards, 9th in scoring
- 2019 -- 7th in yards, 7th in scoring
Yeah, it's a joke and totally infuriating when you contrast those stats with our defensive rankings.This is what our offense has ranked in the Big 12 the last 4 years...
