CSB. My brother in law attended a coaching gathering this Summer that Malzahn put on at Auburn. It was a mix of high school and college offensive gurus from around the country. I have never heard him rave about a coach as much as he did about Herman after the meeting. He said in a room full of some of the top offensive guys in the country, he was the guru.
You are right on the money about the success they had at OSU. Meyer's power spread had been solved and Herman meshed some of Meyer's concepts with a zone read base and added some of Chip Kelley's stuff. Then in the playoff he added a lot of the Patriots 2 TE stuff and added it to the spread which no one had ever seen before and no one could defend it.
