Long post inbound. I have been a long time reader of this board and I have seen the narrative about Moorhead and his offense only beating up crappy teams with superior talent and struggling against good teams. I wanted to break down all of the years Moorhead was the playcaller, so I looked at all his offensive coordinator and head coaching stops in his career to see if that holds up. Below I have the yearly breakdown for you guys.
When Moorhead was first announced I really liked the hire and got giddy watching videos of him breaking down his offenses from his time at Fordham and the SI article about him in 2017. Then Kentucky and Florida last year happened and I started to see major redflags. So, I went back and watched Penn State games from 2016-2017 and Fordham games from 2014-2015 and he really uses the same formations all the time. Good defensive minds with elite athletes, like Ohio State and SEC teams, have put Moorhead?s offense in tough situations.
Like Devious Dawg pointed out in his post, he had an NFL back at UConn and Fordham and NFL players at Penn State. At Penn State he had a top 2 offense in the Big Ten from a talent perspective. Enough rambling:

When Moorhead was first announced I really liked the hire and got giddy watching videos of him breaking down his offenses from his time at Fordham and the SI article about him in 2017. Then Kentucky and Florida last year happened and I started to see major redflags. So, I went back and watched Penn State games from 2016-2017 and Fordham games from 2014-2015 and he really uses the same formations all the time. Good defensive minds with elite athletes, like Ohio State and SEC teams, have put Moorhead?s offense in tough situations.
Like Devious Dawg pointed out in his post, he had an NFL back at UConn and Fordham and NFL players at Penn State. At Penn State he had a top 2 offense in the Big Ten from a talent perspective. Enough rambling:
