While the hiring of Savannah State’s new football coach may have raised a few eyebrows this spring, there’s no question that the Tigers’ offense will have a brand new look coming in to the 2008 season.
Head coach Robby Wells is focusing on an offense that will feature mutiple receiver and tight end sets, in hopes that opponents will have a hard time keeping up with varied looks from the Tiger offense, which will run primarily from the shotgun.
“It’s a multiple-set offense because we can go from two backs and two tight ends all the way to no backs and five wide receivers,” Wells said. “Everybody loves the term ‘spread offense’ because they see all those wide receivers out there, and we do that, but when we get ready for a team and they get ready for us, they’re going to notice on film that it’s not just that spread offense.
